NOURISH. HEAL. EMBODY.
Mission
Improving Relationships with Food, Body, and Self with Nutrition Therapy, Somatic Experiencing,™ and the Written Word.
Meet Heidi
I am Heidi Schauster, MS, RD, CEDS-S, SEP of Nourishing Words Nutrition Therapy and Somatic Experiencing™ in Greater Boston, Massachusetts.
I am a nutrition and eating disorders specialist who helps people affected by trauma heal food and body concerns. I also encourage young adults to approach wellness differently so that they are more concerned with the whole self than the selfie.
I share ideas from my 30 years of clinical work and personal stories about recovery, parenting, and embodiment in my newsletter, Nourishing Words. I’m also the author of award-winning books Nourish: How to Heal Your Relationship with Food, Body and Self and Nurture: How to Raise Kids Who Love Food, Their Bodies, and Themselves. My words have been featured in the Huffington Post, Oprah Daily, and Women's Health Magazine, among others — and I’ve been a guest expert on ABC News, Sirius XM Doctor and Mental Health Radio, and many podcasts.
I also have personal experience with eating disorder recovery and have bumbled through life and parenting. I’m a lifelong dancer, plant lady, and proud mama of two outrageous young women.
I look forward to the opportunity to help you feel nourished, embodied, and connected to what is meaningful in your life.
Confused by the conflicting messages about what to eat and how to take care of your body?
Are you…
Recovering from disordered eating and/or trauma, but still feel stuck in your relationship with food or your body?
Ready to find balance with food, discover your unique movement style, and feel better in your body, mind, and spirit?
Wanting to establish nourishing practices, care for your nervous system, and feel at home in your body and Self?
If any of this feels true, I would be happy to help you on your journey toward embodiment.
