The woman behind the philosophy.
​

 Alexis D. Colantonio has studied wellness and health for decades.   Alexis, had a pivotal moment in her mid-twenties that reminded her of an excerpt from a Robert Frost poem, "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference."    Having an auto-immune disease flair up while in law school, she found a deficiency in the traditional medical world living in New York City.  No medical doctor could address the cause of her flair up, they prescribed medicine to address the symptoms but could not diagnosis the root cause.  She met an integrative medicine doctor who addressed her health issues from the inside out, healed her through dietary changes, supplements and meditation.  The immediate relief, sparked curiosity in the relationships between body, mind and overall health.  Alexis started down the road of mind-body wellness and has not looked back.  She follows her curiousness continuing her education and certifications and learning. 

Alexis received her Bachelor of Arts Degree from Skidmore College, her culinary degree from The Natural Gourmet Institute of Health & Culinary Arts, is a certified Three Principles Practitioner through the One Thought Institute and a certified Mediation & Mindfulness Instructor through the McClean Meditation Institute. 

Alexis lives in Newton, Massachusetts with her three children, their dog Katama and cat Tisbury. Alexis is passionate about supporting humanity in any and all avenues of wellness. . . nutrition, mental wellness and/or meditation & mindfulness.
