Powerful Quotes by Nicole
● Nutrition is not always about the food you put in your mouth. Nutrition is everything. Nutrition is the thoughts that you think, your emotions, your feelings, your relationships, your environment at large. Nutrition is everything you take in as a human being.
● If you’re stressed, you need to be able to switch it off as quickly as you’re able to switch it on.
● To come out of a breathwork journey and to bring your brainwave back from that theta brain state can probably be one of the most relaxing feeling that you’ll ever have.
● The soul is our spiritual intelligence and our body is just the avenue that we have to walk through life. I’m a very firm believer that communication and access to the soul is from the heart.
● Everybody has the right to their own healthcare. Not everybody is buying what I’m selling; but I’m not always buying what the medical profession is selling, either. So, it’s just finding what is right for us as individuals.
