ABOUT

Helping women thrive instead of survive. Through an individualized, root-cause approach, we can change the way you feel in your body and in your life.

Hi! My name is Lucia Harmeling.

I am a registered dietitian in Houston, Texas. I am also a wife, mother, and devout Catholic. It is through my connection to God, my understanding of nutritional science, and my intuitive gifts that I serve others.

I believe food and life should be savored. We don’t need more rules or unrealistic diets - we need the tools to tune into our body and the confidence to trust ourselves. God didn’t give us a body so that we would spend our time trying to change it and He didn’t give us food so we would obsess over it. We know our body best and If something feels off, we’re usually right.

I’m here to empower you and help you navigate what makes sense for your own body. Through our work together, we dive into the root cause of your symptoms so we know exactly what you need to do.

Being frustrated with your body will not get you anywhere, but choosing to do something about it, will. Healing starts when we do something different than what we’ve been doing.

The more we fight our body, the less it will cooperate. We need a regulated nervous system, a nourished body, and the right mindset to see shifts in our health.

If you’re feeling trapped and frustrated because it feels like you’re doing everything right, know there’s something you aren’t seeing.

Through my 10+ years as a dietitian, I’ve learned the following:

  • Shrinking a body only makes it smaller and more stressed

  • Our gut feeling is never wrong.

  • Our bodies don’t know how to lie to us, but they are really good at getting our attention

  • Blindly supplementing does more harm than good.

  • We can’t fully heal without God

  • Believing we can heal and taking action is the first step
