Think of your body as a garden, like the rich microbial soil that grows healthy plants. You are also made up of an enormous microbial community, and the terrain must be healthy for strong roots to grow! Together we will grow and discover what your body’s wisdom knows it needs in order to be well and feel well.
We start with healing the digestive system, as Hippocrates stated in 460-370 B.C., “All Diseases Begin in the Gut”.

Mother Nature is always rebalancing, creatures and plants are always working together in a symphony, the same is true in your digestive system, and your entire body. It is when that system becomes malnourished, damaged, and toxic that disharmony and illness occur.
Come grow with me.
About Cass
Why have I chosen this path? Because the terrain of the body is where it is at! I am passionate about the wisdom of the body and beautifully grown food…and especially the healing power of both nourishing foods and lifestyle. I have come to learn that what Mother Nature has provided us with is what we truly need to thrive. I am here to help others discover and experience the powers of nutrient rich foods and lifestyle practices that support your body’s own innate healing and functioning wisdom.
My own healing journey and the birth of my son have been the inspirations and driving forces behind wanting to help others feel better and grow nourished, healthy children. While pregnant, a friend/pilates cohort passed me Sally Fallon’s book Nourishing Traditions, and those first 70 pages changed my life and the way I sourced, prepared and ate food forever. (Sally Fallon Morrell heads the Weston A. Price Foundation, a non profit out of Washington D.C. that focuses on food research, farming and the healing arts.) I raised my boy Wyatt on their recommended Nourishing A Growing Baby diet, and he has grown into a healthy, beautiful, strong boy as well as a fantastic eater. He eats everything from oysters to liver pate, and has an amazing appreciation for all different tastes and textures.
I have studied various forms of healing bodywork, foundations of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Pilates and functional movement, breath work, western herbal medicine 101, Nutritional Therapy, and most recently Gut and Psychology and Gut and Physiology Syndrome. I have learned various forms of detoxification that support all healing and have a genuine passion and joy helping others to heal and grow.
I am here as a teacher, a guide, a coach, a cook, a compassionate ear, and to share the knowledge I have been collecting about the roots of health and wellness for the past two decades. I have learned and pulled information from the best and most up to date researchers, doctors, healers and teachers. A few of these include Sally Fallon Morrell, Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, Dr. Thomas Cowan, Dr. Kelly Brogan, Chef Monica Corrado, functional movement teacher Tom Mc Cook, and many other amazing souls. I look forward to sharing the gems of health that I have discovered with you, and to find which ones enliven the health of your own body’s garden.
