Path for Life Self-Nourishment Center

ONE OF THE BEST NUTRITIONISTS

I've read all the reviews and I agree with almost everything that has been said about Jeanette Bronee and Path for Life. I will attempt to add something to what everyone else has said. About 2 years ago, a friend of mine asked me about my vision for my body. I had never really thought about it before but I realized:

1. that my vision has been, for the most part, somebody else’s vision – whether that is my mother’s or society’s.

2. that I would need to do some research and gain more understanding about how my body works and what it needs to really live in the body I was meant to live in.

3. that I would need a lot of help and support in doing this.

To have more of an understanding about my body, another friend suggested I contact a nutritionist. Since I didn’t know of any and I am highly sensitive around my food/body (as someone who has suffered with an eating disorder), I wanted to speak with someone I would feel safe with but who also had a great deal of wisdom, knowledge, experience and kindness. I looked up a bunch of different websites but when I saw the Path for Life website, I connected to it immediately.

I was traveling around the country for work at the time, staying in hotels and all that entails. Jeanette and I started with phone sessions. Immediately, without even having met her face-to-face, I knew that I was speaking to ONE OF THE BEST NUTRITIONISTS out there. She helped me get through the traveling and then, when I returned to NY a few months later, I met her in her wonderful, soothing office. She greeted me so warmly as if we had known each other for a long time.

It is IMPOSSIBLE for me to say in a Citysearch testimonial everything that I have received from Jeanette's guidance. That being said..HIGHLIGHTS: my immune system has strengthened so much so that I did not have even a cold this entire winter (I usually get at least 2 & sometimes it develops into bronchitis); I no longer take acid reflux medication; I now have a morning ritual (that includes journaling & meditation) and no longer eat late at night (no therapist has ever been able to help me with the nighttime); I now have an understanding of how foods affect me and what foods are best for me; she gives wonderful recipes/ideas to keep me & my palate interested - I need variety; sweet cravings have been drastically reduced; a feeling of well-being in my body - and a TRUST that is being developed between my mind and my body; I now fully understand and believe that I have the power to choose how I want my body to feel energetically through my food and exercise choices - thanks to Jeanette.

She is a BEAUTIFUL woman - inside and outside - kind, caring, intuitive, intelligent and warm. She supports and teaches you how to be your GREATEST SELF - outside & inside- through ACCEPTANCE of who you are. Furthermore, Jeanette is a wealth of knowledge on many subjects and is a wonderful resource. If you work with her, YOU WILL CHANGE. YOUR BODY WILL CHANGE. YOUR LIFE WILL CHANGE. AND ALL FOR THE BETTER...Don't just take my word for it...read the rest of the reviews.

• Pros: SHE PRACTICES WHAT SHE TEACHES...

jeanette bronee at path for life has been a presence in my life for the past 2 years. first, she helped me to learn how to properly nourish my body w/ whole, natural, earth given food & drink. in about 6 months, my head was clearer, i gained more focus, had more energy, trimmed my body down, lost my cravings for sugar, alcohol, and "junk" foods, and really started appreciating & understanding the power of feeding yourself properly w/ healthy foods & lifestyle. i also used her guidance while trying to get pregnant, which i did. i had an extremely healthy pregnancy, with very little excess weight gain or moodiness. i am now about 1.5 week postpartum and feel great. i attribute my healthy pregnancy to my work w/ jeanette before the pregnancy, during, and now after. i have recommended jeanette to many peers re: not only food issues, but general health & well being in all ways. she is truly wonderful & will not dissapoint.

• Pros: guidance on many topics
• Cons: none

Perfect for Everyone

Regardless of what you are searching for, Path for Life will be able to help you. I found Jeanette and Path for Life through this website, and I could not be more thankful. I went to Jeanette originally because I had an awful relationship with food and because of liver problems, thinking the two were not related at all. The health problems have followed me my entire life and I have traveled worldwide to doctors to figure it out. Jeanette taught me that the food and the liver were, of course, related and also helped me go beyond the surface level of just looking at the food and showed me how, ultimately, what you eat affects every single part of your life. Since working with Jeanette, my liver problems have ceased, my mood is better, my weight is lower...you name it-it has improved since working with Path for LIfe. I would recommend Jeanette and Path for Life to anyone that needs pretty much anything, from health problems to depression to ADD to weight...she can do it all! :)

More Than a Nutritionist

by mh87

January 04, 2009

I found Jeanette Bronee through this website, and all of the 5 star reviews are true. She is more than just a nutritionist. She delves into where habits are formed and the feelings that get attached to certain foods. After dancing ballet professionally, I had developed eating disorders and many poor habits. Instead of thinking of foods as good or bad, or looking for low-calorie foods, she taught me that the nutritional content of what we consume is more important. I had great difficulty with binge eating, and since I have seen her I have only had a few slip-ups.

Jeanette also helped me to discover that I am gluten and dairy sensitive. Since she has helped me figure out the best foods for me I have gained energy, sleep more soundly, no longer get bouts of depression, and my stomach does not hurt me daily. Jeanette is also great at giving hand-outs and recipes to help make the lifestyle changes easier. She also aided me in finding comfort in small rituals I create for myself, rather than looking to food. As a person, Jeanette is warm and nurturing and her office reflects her personality. I am so grateful for her guidance and support and urge anyone who is feeling helpless or lost when it comes to food choices to make an appointment.

The only nutritionist who's ever helped me!!!

by gravelgirty

December 22, 2008

I've seen a lot of nutritionists and doctors about food allergies, potential celiac disease, etc., but only Jeanette Bronee was able to determine what was making me sick and how I could get well. Each time I saw her, she made additions to and subtractions from my diet and way of life that have made an enormous difference in how I feel. Since I started implementing her recommendations, I am sleeping better, I have more energy, my food cravings and constant hunger are gone, I haven't been getting bloated, and I haven't been getting sick. I am also losing weight and working out regularly, which for me is a first. I cannot thank Jeanette enough!!!!! She is an amazing nourishment coach, and I would urge anyone in need to see her ASAP!!!!!

• Pros: Her office is warm and inviting, like someone's living room.
• Cons: My insurance doesn't cover out-of-network providers, but Jeanette's worth every out-of-pocket penny!!!

Amazing Results

by wadinglove

September 18, 2008

I am so grateful for the advice and information provided by Jeanette Bronee: it has put my health back on the path for life. In 2004 I was diagnosed with a stage IIB immune related disorder. I sought traditional and non-traditional modalities of treatment through 2006 which included four radiation therapies and one surgery, pricey medicines with several side effects, costly nutritional supplements, costly intravenous vitamin c treatments, chinese herbal teas, acupuncture, sound and meditation therapies and a pursuit to include as much home grown vegetables in my diet as possible. Late in 2006 a final tumor was removed via surgery and in mid 2007 I began to step away from all treatments. I remained tumorless through 2007 and upon reaching the one year, tumorless milestone, I enjoyed eating and drinking with mild abandon. One month later, I began to notice the precursors of tumors that I experienced in the past. I sought Jeanette's help at this point, early 2008. In a very direct and uncomplicated way, Jeanette advised not taxing the organs responsible for a healthy immune system. She recommended not impossible dietary changes that reversed the precursors in only a few weeks. I have continued seeking Jeanette's excellent advice and have pursued the importance of home grown vegetables in my diet: results are outstanding. A personal friend, who has published a book re curing MS via diet, once told me, "The body wants to heal itself, give it what it needs." These words are my lifeline and Jeanette has solidified my focus in this pursuit. I am so grateful to be counted among the happy, happy clients of Jeanette Bronee.

I am so grateful to have found her

Jeanette is amazing, graceful and insightful. I knew my issues with my weight and body were not connected to the physical, but interlocked with my emotions. This program allowed me a safe and supportive space to explore those areas, the good and the bad, and find my own way out of my personal maze. I feel better about myself, dropped weight, and I am more in tune with and accepting of who I truly am. Its been quite an experience and while on this journey, I am so grateful that our paths crossed. She gets it, nothing is cookie cutter, I am one of her biggest fans and she inspires me beyond limits.

• Pros: Everything

JEANETTE CHANGED MY LIFE

by nyctopaz

Jeanette changed my life. I was diagnosed with UC and after several months of medicine, I was not getting any better. Working with Jeanette brought me back to feeling like me again - and that is completely irreplaceable. Not only did she save my life, but enhanced my quality and appreciation for life to so much more than what it was before my diagnosis. This review can not put into words my appreciation and gratitude.

Cancer Free thanks to Path for Life

by lyncikara

April 15, 2008

When I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer for the second time, I was just as stunned as the first time. This time, however, it had spread to my lung and liver. A conflict arose in me like a split personality. On one hand the sheer panic of what to do in a hurry, before I lost my vitality to this cancer and, on the other hand, the calm knowledge that I could take my time to find my cure.

I sought regular support from a wellness coach, Jeanette, from Path of Life. We spoke on the telephone three times a month for several months. She helped me stay on track with my diet, fine-tuning here and there and gave me the support when I became weak. Most important, she gave me the encouragement and support to keep my hope alive and strong. I started out referring to her as my ?cancer coach? but soon she became my ?wholeness coach.? Her gently nudges, knowledge and understanding of how my stubbornness worked with me and against me, helped me clear the way for true success. Jeanette was my guardian angel and she saved my life. She put me in touch with the product that cured me completely.

One year after starting the faslodex (my oncologist's hormone blocker) and Ambrotose (the glyconutrient protocol, Jeanette had introduced me to), in November 2007, my PET/CT scan showed no evidence of cancerous tumors anywhere. Not in my breast, not in my lung, not in my liver. My oncologist had to spell it out to me: ?There is no sign of cancer, you are in full remission!? Thank you Jeanette for believing, as I do, that cancer can be cured and for helping me find the cure that worked for me.

• Pros: Accessible by phone, knowledgable, truthful and supportive

Absolutely Amazing!

by katecdav

January 08, 2008

I am so glad that Jeanette has helped me alter my eating habits at sixteen, so I can carry them into my adulthood. Initially, I was having some cravings, but I did not let them take over. It is actually amazing to me how little I even think about sugary snacks and other junk food. I went from having a cookie or some type of sugary snack every day to a healthy snack or no snack at all.

My dad is actually getting into different eating habits, too, which I'm sure is due to my mom and my new ways of eating. Some of my friends did not seem to have confidence in my dedication to this new way of eating, but they have all seen the drastic change it has had on my skin, body, and attitude. Today I did an assignment that would have normally taken me twenty minutes to half an hour to do in about five minutes. My ability to concentrate has been shocking to me! Thank you for helping me change my whole life through showing me what was harmful to do or put into my body and helping me completely turn around the way I eat. The one thing that was bothering me the most was my skin, and it has been noticeably better. My skin care products just weren't helping clear up my skin. I now feel more radiant everyday, and I cannot thank you enough. This really has been a completely life changing experience! Thank you Jeanette.

• Pros: Relaxing and calm office, very warm and friendly nutritionist (Jeanette)
