A Big THANK YOU to Karen Brucken of Empowering True Health!
What can I say besides you really know your stuff… After attending Karen’s latest program “Pathway to True Health and Weight Loss”, I feel very confident that I know what I eat and what I need to do to stay healthy. Really, you learn a lot from this fantastic Health Educator. Thanks again, Karen!
ABOUT KAREN
As creator and owner of Empowering True Health, my goal is to change your health by teaching you to make informed decisions. I have always had a desire to help others and analyze behavior to figure out why something is happening, and now I am able to do that using my life-long interest in health and wellness. Even ten years ago, I never imagined I would establish my own business. My journey in this field fully began once I discovered the Wellness Forum Institute. My course work has resulted in becoming a Certified Health Educator. I have also taken courses that include certifications in diet and lifestyle, weight loss, allergies and asthma, gastrointestinal health, children’s health, psychological disorders, and cancer. In addition, I am certified as a Food Over Medicine instructor, based upon the book Food Over Medicine and a whole food plant based diet, through courses with Dr. Pam Popper. Finally, the business courses, as well as the classes in understanding research that I have participated in, have helped me to gain additional knowledge needed to begin Empowering True Health, LLC.
I offer educational workshops and individual sessions that empower you to make informed decisions, just like you would make decisions about buying a house or car, so that you can feel your best and enjoy life to its fullest. I do this by looking at you as a whole person, using solid, well conducted research, and sharing with you objective information regarding the risks and benefits of lifestyle changes you are considering. During an individual session, we will work together to develop a plan based upon your health goals and then continue to follow up to support your journey and determine if the plan needs to be adjusted. In a workshop setting, you will learn with others in-depth information on a topic and have time for discussions and questions and answers to help you decide your next step toward better health.
The United States is thought to have some of the best medical care in the world, yet so many people are trying to manage chronic diseases, taking medications to relieve symptoms instead of addressing causes, are overweight, or are just sick and tired of being sick and tired. I offer a different approach and way to achieve true health. Its side effects include feeling healthier, having more energy, losing weight, and being able to enjoy life for years to come.
