SPIRITUAL NUTRITION COUNSELING
I'm committed to freeing you from unwholesome cycles.
I'm here for you and I know your pain.
I’ve seen and experienced what can happen when you live, eat, and love without proper guidance and knowledge.
WHAT IS SPIRITUAL NUTRITION COUNSELING?
With Spiritual Nutrition everything is connected: your mind, body, and spirit. Healing is your birth-right and learning how to heal yourself is part of life. Together, we will bring your whole-self back into balance by allowing it to do what it does best: heal itself.
I counsel people who are dealing with blood sugar, digestion, drug addiction, depression, hormonal imbalances, diabetes and chronic sickness. If you’re already working with a medical doctor, partnering with a Spiritual Nutrition Counselor can help accelerate the healing process.
While our immediate focus is on your individual health goals, our ultimate goal is a more conscious world.
HOW DOES SPIRITUAL COUNSELING WORK?
Over the course of our journey together, we will create a customized plan for your rapid healing, deep re-nourishment, and vibrant wellness. Together we will:
• Find, understand and cleanse the underlying patterns that keep you feeling heavy, stressed and sick.
• Identify and release these patterns on all levels to free you and bring you back to radiant wholeness.
• Create a step-by-step plan where you will gain confidence and celebrate your ability to trust, nourish and care for yourself.
• Enter deeply into your mind structure, flow, and routines of your life to recreate them in a way that truly helps you thrive.
Sometimes we will laugh, sometimes we will cry, but I won’t let you fall, and I am committed to helping you fulfill your purpose. We can work on just about anything you want — as long as you’re willing to do the work and take personal responsibility for your health.
The blessings of the universe brought us together at a time when I was in need of a coach, a mentor like you. From you, I also learned how to release the past so that I can move forward. You helped me to shed the skin that was no longer serving me.”

WHO IS MARCELA BENSON?
I’m a Spiritual Nutrition Counselor, Essene Priestess, and author based in Miami Beach, Florida. I am a healer, passionate poet, mystic teacher, avid student, mother of two amazing grown-ups, and I’m always ready to serve.
For over 16 years, I was mentored by Master Healer, Gabriel Cousens, M.D. M.D. (H) D.D.
I graduated with a Mastery in Vegan Live Food Nutrition, specializing in recovering diabetes naturally and spiritual fasting at Dr. Cousens’ School of Holistic Wellness. As part of my training, I’ve assisted in hundreds of healings and spiritual transformations and learned that health and peace are your birth-rights.
I hold a BA in Health Sciences, and completed post-graduate training at the University of Integrated Science California. I’ve studied superfood nutrition, Ayurvedic science, Chinese tonic herbalism, Amazonian herbalism, crystal and Zero-point energy healing, and vegan and raw nutrition at some of the top institutes in the world.
Besides studying holistic nutrition in the classroom, this is my life’s work and life. I like to say that along with my scientific training, I’ve completed over 25 years of trial and error so we can shorten your learning curve to just a couple of weeks! My purpose is to listen to the whispering wisdom of your soul, and then guide you to your sacred, inner knowledge. One of the deep desires of your soul is to be in harmony with your body. This process is experiential and unique to you. We’ll share many magical moments together that will deeply move us. My sessions are 100 percent personalized.
I know your pain. As a young adult, I watched my weight swing in every direction. I lost my father to diabetes. I’ve witnessed several of my closest family members struggle with obesity, diabetes, chronic digestive disorders, cystitis, depression, ADHD and other forms of health challenges and come through the other side, just by addressing basic nutritional deficiencies. I’ve experienced what can happen when we eat without intention. I’m committed to freeing you from that cycle for good.
As featured in
If you want to make the shift to a clean, organic, raw, vegan or whole foods diet — but you’re confused and struggling to stay motivated & committed — I’m here to guide you. Together we will develop an individualized plan that you will be able to follow because it’s designed just for you.
I am inspired to be better, healthier and more evolved on every level.
You have opened me up to a completely new and different world — to a higher level of being. From the very beginning, you have had patience to take me through the process of my life-altering changes.
I am no longer pre-diabetic. This is a huge accomplishment!
I am forever changed and forever grateful. I will be seeing you always in my life and in my heart.
With the purest love imaginable

SPIRITUAL NUTRITION COUNSELING FAQ
Not at all! I advocate for a fresh, organic, raw, and vegan food lifestyle. However, I’m never going to “force” you to eat something you don’t desire. I’ll teach you what I’ve learned over many years, empower you to make the changes you’re looking for and respect your choices. There are over 20,000 species of edible plants in the world, so I can assure you’ll never be hungry or bored!
I work with my students face-to-face and online in Spanish and English. Both ways work beautifully, it just depends on what you want, need and where you are.
Some of my clients meet with me virtually, two to four times a month.
Others fly me to their homes for week-long, lifestyle-transforming intensives.
A few of my clients have booked me to train their private chefs, onsite.
Others prefer to meet me at my studio in Miami Beach, Florida where we can play in my kitchen and state-of-the-art fitness room. (I can bring a private Pilates instructor into the studio, to guide you through a phenomenal workout after our counseling session!).
We’ll work out the logistics during our first consultation.
Cookbooks & guidebooks are fantastic. My kitchen is full of them!
But a cookbook isn’t going to text you on the morning of your huge presentation to remind you to take your supplements.
A cookbook isn’t going to drive to your home to supervise you while you clear out your fridge, and then take you shopping for fresh, healthy treats.
A cookbook isn’t going to individualize your meal plan, based on your exact body constitution & metabolic profile.
But I will.
So, if you want the kind of support that goes above & beyond a cookbook, then you need me.
A non-toxic, whole foods diet has been proven to reduce chronic stress & inflammation, two of the root causes of most diseases. I do this through the Nurturing Non-Toxic Nest method. I believe your home can be a sanctuary of healing. Comprehensive guidance can help you create a toxin-free home that nourishes your body and soul. I’ll show you how to remove hidden environmental stressors so you can stop fighting an invisible battle and finally rest into your wellness and wholeness.
Your kitchen is a sanctuary to me.
There is a special essence in your kitchen, that makes me want to learn and be healthier. I feel privileged to participate and I have learned so much through the years. Your recipes are superb!! “
