Hi, I’m John-Willy Pelser, a certified Mindfulness-based Nutrition Coach with over 10 years of experience in the health and fitness industry. Like many of my clients, I struggled with emotional eating and a tumultuous relationship with food for years. However, everything changed when I discovered the power of mindfulness and its profound impact on our well-being. Through mindfulness practices such as meditation, breathing exercises, journaling, mindful movement, and mindful eating, I achieved sustainable transformation in my own life and that of my clients.

Mindfulness-based nutrition coaching is a holistic approach that combines principles of mindfulness, nutrition education, and personalized coaching to help you develop a healthier relationship with food and yourself. It focuses on cultivating awareness, promoting mindful eating practices, and addressing emotional and psychological factors related to food choices.

Mindfulness enhances self-awareness and helps you tune into your body’s signals of hunger, fullness, and satisfaction. By practicing mindfulness, you can become more attuned to your emotions, cravings, and patterns around food, allowing for conscious and balanced choices.

During coaching sessions, we will work together to explore your unique needs, challenges, and goals. We will discuss mindful eating practices, nutrition education, stress reduction techniques, and other tools to support your journey towards a healthier relationship with food and greater self-esteem.
