“Christine Waltermyer came into my life when I needed her most. I was an out-of-control mother of two small children living on caffeine and sugar to get me through the day. Looking for a better way, I happened to take a cooking class at my local health food store and immediately knew I had found what I was searching for, whole foods. I was thrilled to find out about Christine’s school and immediately enrolled. My certification as a Natural Foods Chef has allowed me to have a new career as a personal chef and cooking instructor. I am so happy that I can finally do what I am passionate about and still have the flexibility to spend time with my family. I am a better person, leading a more balanced, less stressed and more peaceful life.”




“I graduated from the Natural Kitchen Cooking School in 2006, and loved my experience in the Natural Chefs Training Program. As an artist, I now have more awareness of food and it’s impact upon my moods and feelings. I have found more balance in my diet, and this is just the beginning. My sugar cravings have always been strong and I realized that eating grains helps me to feel more balanced and stable. I have learned to use other foods such as cabbage and carrots, and different sweeteners such as maple and brown rice syrups to help manage my sugar cravings. As a Shiatsu massage therapist, the cooking skills I learned, together with the bodywork, create a beautiful synergy for my clients, who seek a holistic approach to a balanced life. It is an exciting experience to listen to the body and fine tune it!”




“I started this program looking for a way to incorporate more whole foods into my diet. That’s all. What I got out of it was a wonderful feeling of appreciation and wonder that arrives when you stop and think of yourself as part of the energy of the universe, and try to be kind to yourself and that universe. I am now calmer, kinder, more balanced and more mindful of the choices I make. I don’t get frazzled as quickly. I’m more patient towards people and more aware of my surroundings. I feel lighter and my I have even become more able to consistently exercise. As a result of all of these changes, I am a healthier person. This class has awakened a deeper self-intuition. I am so grateful I was a part of this program.”
