Virtual and in-person coach Meredith Dykstra surrounded by healthy food (greens, citrus fruits)
 

Meet Meredith.

I was born and raised in a little town called Somerset, Pennsylvania, and grew up eating the Standard American Diet (SAD).

After years of low vibrational eating and lifestyle choices, during which I experienced recurring hormonal, weight, emotional eating, auto-immune, and skin issues, I decided to make a drastic change.

 
 

in 2010

 

In 2010, I left the “laissez les bon temps rouler” lifestyle in New Orleans (goodbye Bourbon Street!) and moved 1500 north miles to a remote holistic retreat center in Massachusetts.

I became an apprentice in the kitchen at the Kushi Institute, where I learned how to cook healing foods using a macrobiotic approach. I spent many hours chopping veggies, chewing endless bowls of brown rice, and studying the Japanese philosophy of “great life”—a system of holistic and dynamic practices that guide nutrition, activity, and lifestyle choices for maximum healing.

While learning the ropes in the macro kitchen, I began to heal my physical imbalances and emotional blocks. These successes inspired me to to start helping others, so…

Virtual and in-person certified health coach Meredith Dykstra traveling

In 2012, I became certified as a health coach.

After nearly four years at the Institute, I returned to Pennsylvania to spend time with family and support my mama’s cancer journey. I was grateful to be able to share all I had learned with her to support her healing process. (P.S. She is doing great!)

I worked with medical doctors, chiropractors, acupuncturists, neurofeedback practitioners, holistic dentists, and energy healers to expand my own health practices. Along the way, I did plenty of research and self-experimentation to discover the supplement, detox, fasting, and other lifestyle strategies that made the biggest impact.

 

TODAY


 

Today, I offer virtual and in-person coaching programs, educational workshops, cooking demos, kitchen “detoxes,” and grocery store tours. Though I’m currently based in Charlottesville, Virginia, I work with clients around the world. It’s a joy to hear their unique stories and support their transformation.

 

I’m honored and humbled to be a channel to help others curate their fullest, most joyful lives.
