“The Bauman College community is an inspiring group of teachers, mentors, colleagues and friends that support personal and professional growth outside of the classroom as well. ”

  

I graduated from the Nutrition Educator program in Spring 2008 with a broader understanding of how important holistic health practices are in my own life, but also how essential whole food nutrition is for those compromising their health by poor food choices. Bauman reaffirmed my beliefs in the practice of a whole foods diet as preventative medicine by providing extensive literature, case studies and practical exercises. The honesty in the Bauman philosophy of Eating for Health simplified the otherwise confusing world of diets, myths, marketing, and commercialism we live it. It also inspired me to bring more awareness back to whole food nutrition and become a role model and advocate for healthy living through proper nutrition.

The Bauman College community is an inspiring group of teachers, mentors, colleagues and friends that support personal and professional growth outside of the classroom as well. The education I gained through my experience at Bauman College combined with my prior small business experience, allowed me to confidently launch my business in the holistic health field.

I started CAN CAN Cleanse, my nutritional cleanse business, in December 2010. Committed to the practice of mindfulness in our daily lives and especially in our diets, CAN CAN Cleanse is a nutritional 3-day liquid cleanse that is designed to give the body a break from the stress and toxins of the on-the-go lifestyle. In harmony with Bauman’s emphasis on the importance of whole foods, I’ve created all the beverages from honest organic, seasonal fruits and vegetables, herbal teas, raw nuts, fresh herbs and spices.

With excessive amounts of unconscious eating going on in peoples’ busy lives, the practice of a cleanse is very much a mental exercise in willpower and requires a time of strength and reflection. Teaching people to listen to their bodies and take time to rest and relax allows them to think about healthy changes they can make after the cleanse. Helping people get back in touch with what it feels like to feel good and asking them to commit to change to better their overall health and wellness is rewarding.

CAN CAN Cleanse has helped hundreds of people jump-start goals - be it to curb cravings, break bad habits, discover mental clarity, awaken energy or to ignite weight loss. There is nothing more rewarding about helping people boost self-esteem and help remind them what it feels like to feel good!

The knowledge I acquired at Bauman College has served as my foundation to be an influential nutrition educator as well as a confident small business owner who loves what I do - connecting with people through nutritious food!
