The ruthless pace of our daily lives takes its toll on our physical bodies as well as our emotional and mental well-being.

Whether you have issues with carrying physical or emotional weight, anxiety and depression, struggling relationships, or are simply overwhelmed with life, we are here to help.

 

With em-body-ment coaching, your unique needs are addressed whether you feel them most in the body plane or in the emotional and mental realm. Our coaching combines an integrative emotional-body-energy approach to care.

For successful change to occur, we support you from both the inside and the outside. This balanced approach helps you feel the successes of your efforts sooner and makes them more sustainable.

 

 

BODY-mind approach

Daily life is full of activities and challenges. Do your daily habits charge or deplete your body? Are you drained by the end of the day or week?

Our energy levels are not just reflected in our bodies, but also in the way that we feel, in our thoughts and beliefs, and how we relate to others.

MIND-body approach

Do you go through life constantly struggling and forcing yourself to push through each day? Do you feel calm or stressed? 

Imbalance in our bodies is reflected in our thoughts, emotions, and general attitude towards life. It can enhance our feelings of being in constant flight-or-fight mode, experiencing anxieties or depressive episodes.

 

 

TESTIMONIALS

Testimonials

“My first experience was with em-body-ment was 7 years ago before it even existed. I was graduating high school, and desperate to lose weight and develop healthier habits before moving away to a new city to attend college. In the span of 6 months of working with Amy, I lost 60 pounds and never felt better in my life. I achieved the confidence and energy I was missing in high school, which ultimately carved out a healthier path for me in my collegiate career.

Fast forward to 2020, and I am now 25 and working in New York City. Throughout the past few years of transitioning to adulthood, both Amy and Ozana were always a call away whenever I was struggling mentally. While my nutrition and physical health was excellent, the emotionally stressors of the “real world” were building up. Knowing that they helped me succeed many times before, I attended the Catalyst for Change workshop to feel a sense of community as I focused on my mental health. Feeling the support from em-body-ment and the other workshop attendees allowed me to talk freely and openly about my struggles. Because the group was small, I didn’t feel embarrassed or anxious to have an open discourse with them. While every day is a small step towards progress, having the continuous support of others in a weekly environment was beneficial in helping guide me on my overall journey to holistic wellbeing.”

“One of the transforming things about this pandemic is the consciousness about my body, mind, and energy. I´ve been struggling with being overweight since I was a baby, but only now, facing a tough period of more than 100 days indoors, I could understand the importance of being healthy mainly from the inside. The meditation meetings with Amy, Ozana and the group helped a lot! Taking care of ourselves can´t be divided in sectors, and the breathing, the calmness, and the support of these 30 minutes a day really made a difference. And my weight? Well, just lost 40 pounds and I don´t think I will get them back. Mens sana in corpore sano.”

-Marcia, Sau Paolo, Brazil

“From the very start, in working with Amy on my nutrition, health goals and overall well-being, she has made me feel as though I was more than a "Client". Her personal style, expertise and professional standards -- and her focus on how these are delivered to me -- sets her apart in a health marketplace that seems increasingly crowded and commoditized. She is passionate about what she does and is committed to my personal growth and success. She is more than a coach and trainer -- Amy is my advocate. And, even during those times when I find it challenging to believe in myself, she remains a believer in me. I cannot stress how important that is. She inspires me to do more than I was able to do on my own. For these reasons, I find working with Amy to be incredibly valuable. I cannot recommend her more highly or endorse her more sincerely.”

-Gregory, New York, NY

“It’s with great pleasure that I recommend Amy and the amazing leadership she’s been providing these past few months. This has been so important, especially considering the difficult times we’ve been going through. She really puts her heart out and helps us re-center and get grounded, while elevating our minds and thoughts through a beautiful path while meditating. Even though we met practically every day since the lockdown started, it has always been a different and soothing experience that helped me get through the day with more energy and lightness in my heart.”

-Patricia, Zagreb, HRV

"Amy is a calming, nurturing presence that exudes positive energy. When the rest of the world may be chaotic and frenzied, Amy is consistently balanced and centered which she effectively translates into her excellent work. If you are lucky enough to have the chance to work with Amy Smith, grab it!"

-Karen, Miami, FL
