Spiritual Nutrition Counseling

Symptoms Are Not the Destination. They Are the Invitation.

You can spend years learning to live with it. Or you can find out why it is there.In Miami or online, in English or Spanish.

The Question I Ask

True healing begins when we stop asking

“How do I make this go away?”

and begin asking

“What is this trying to teach me?”

Marcela · Spiritual Nutrition Counselor

The Work Itself

Spiritual Nutrition Counseling

Food nourishes more than the body. What you take in, through food, emotions, relationships, environment and thoughts, shapes how you experience life. Through fasting, Ayurveda, herbalism and the food itself, you learn to listen, and your own constitution tells you how you need to operate.

You may not know what is wrong. That is what we find together.

You might arrive with a symptom. More often you arrive with a life. A life you are still building, a body that is asking for something, children you want to feed well, parents who are aging, or a sense that you are here for a reason you cannot yet name. I work with all of it, and with what you can actually do. Not the ideal version. The one you will feel good about doing.

You do not need to arrive ready. You need to arrive willing.

What Your Counseling Includes

We work on four levels at once, because none of them stands apart from the others.

Your body

Eating for your constitutional type, plant based. Your oxidative profile. Building your menu and organizing how you eat.

Your mind

Your relationships with others. How you speak to yourself. The thoughts you keep returning to.

Your spirit

Spiritual counseling. Learning how to meditate. Finding your life purpose.

Your kitchen and your home

Cooking and preparing food, hands on. Detoxifying your kitchen and your home. EMFs and your invisible environment.

And even the ingredients you put on your skin.

How We Begin

Three Steps

Assessment forms, journal and tea, ready before your first session

Your Assessments

Before We Meet

If you are beginning a path, you complete your Ayurvedic constitution, oxidative profile, health history and food journal. So we begin already knowing something real about you.

Marcela Benson

Our Consultation

When We Meet

An hour and a half to two and a half hours. Not only your symptoms, but your relationships, your lifestyle, your environment and your emotional history. We go through all of it before we decide anything.

A path forward

Your Path

After We Meet

We design it together, from everything in the studio, in whatever combination serves you. Once it is set, our sessions run an hour to an hour and a half.

Your initial consultation is $697. You may come for a full assessment, or simply bring one specific concern and we will focus our time there.

If you wish to continue working together, personalized packages begin at $5,000.

Also Available

What you can add to your path

Each of these is its own offering, separate from your counseling and priced on its own. None are required. We add one only when the path we're taking calls for it. Every one of them is supportive. None replaces medical care.

Guided Spiritual Juice Fasting

A practice of renewal and clarity, guided from the first day to the last. When your path calls for it, and never before you're ready.

Miami or online

Guided Liver Cleanse

A structured cleanse with support through every stage, chosen when your body is asking for it.

Miami or online

Biofeedback & Scalar

Biofeedback reads signals from your body and reflects them back, so we can see where stress and imbalance are showing up. Scalar is frequency based support for balance in the body's energetic field.

Miami or online

Learning to Meditate

If you have never meditated, or tried once and decided you couldn't, I teach you how. From the beginning, until it is yours to keep.

Miami or online

Guided Meditation

I guide you live, online or in my temple, with recordings and videos to return to on your own. In the temple, sound healing with the bowls is part of the practice.

Miami or online

Private Pilates

One-on-one with an instructor I trust. Never a group class. Movement built around your body, your constitution, and where you are on that particular day. If you have never done a single class, that is a normal place to begin.

Miami only

Plasma & Frequency Light

Quiet, slow sessions with plasma and frequency light, used when your path calls for it.

Miami only

Red Light & Lymphatic Compression

Red light supports cellular energy, recovery and skin health. Lymphatic compression uses gentle sequential pressure to encourage lymphatic movement, reduce swelling and support circulation.

Miami only

Nothing here is a standard protocol. What your path includes is decided together, once I understand what your body and your life are asking for.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens in the first consultation?

If you are beginning a path, you will have completed your assessments before we meet: your Ayurvedic constitution, oxidative profile, health history, and food journal. So we begin already knowing something real about you. Then we talk. Not only about symptoms, but about your relationships, your lifestyle, your environment, your emotional history. By the end, we have a direction.

What are the assessments?

Four questionnaires, each telling me something different. Ayurveda recognizes three constitutional types (doshas), your questionnaire shows which is strongest, shaping what feeds you and how I teach you. Your oxidative profile shows how fast or slow you burn what you eat and how much plant protein to start with. Your health history and food journal show where your health actually is, and what you actually eat rather than what you mean to eat.

What if the forms feel like too much?

Tell me. If you want the whole path, we can spread the assessments across several sessions. If you're coming for a single consultation to get clear on one thing, you don't need them at all, we simply talk.

Can I come for just one consultation?

Yes. One thing you want clarity on, one conversation may be all you need. An hour and a half to two hours, no assessments, no package, no next step unless you want one. Same $697.

Do you teach cooking?

Yes, hands on, how to prepare food, cook for your constitution, and detoxify your kitchen and home.

Do I need to be vegan to work with you?

No, and I won't ask you to convert. But what I teach is vegan, it's what I've studied and practiced for Nearly thirty years. What you eat outside our work is yours to decide.

What are EMFs, and why do they matter?

Electromagnetic fields, the invisible energy from wifi routers, phones, wiring, everything you live among. I help you see this layer of your environment and make practical changes to reduce exposure.

What is scalar and biofeedback work?

Biofeedback reads signals from your body and reflects them back so we can see where stress/imbalance shows up, from that I build a set of frequencies delivered as sound to your phone. Scalar reaches you the same way, wherever you are.

Is this instead of my doctor?

No, and it never should be. I am a Spiritual Nutrition Counselor, not a physician. My work does not replace medical care.

What happens after the consultation?

I cannot tell you before we meet, your path is built from what you actually need.

Ultimately this is a journey of self-realization. A movement from separation into oneness, and a remembering of your connection with all that is.
