Hi! My name is Yana, and I’m a dedicated and passionate holistic nutritionist based in Los Angeles and the creator of Berry and Bliss. For as long as I can remember, the world of food and nutrition has sparked my interests, guiding me on a path of discovery, learning, and transformation.

My fascination with nutrition ignited many years ago, as I grew up watching my mom and grandmother cook wholesome meals for our family. As I got older, I began exploring the food scene in Los Angeles and picked up a passion for cooking as well. I enjoyed tasting new foods and going out to eat A LOT.

However, after graduating college and entering the corporate world, I began to experience a lot of anxiety, which led to gut issues, skin issues, and a lot of unhappiness. This led me to explore the profound impact that food and lifestyle choices have on our overall well-being. In my journey to heal myself, I discovered that our diet is half the battle. Eventually I took a deep dive into the realm of holistic nutrition, which encompasses not only the foods we consume but also the connection between mind, body, and spirit.

My approach to nutrition is rooted in the holistic perspective, recognizing that true wellness extends beyond the plate. I believe that each individual is unique, and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to nourishment. Through personalized guidance and a comprehensive understanding of your lifestyle, goals, and challenges, I aim to empower you to make mindful choices that resonate with your body and soul.

I’m dedicated to equipping you with the knowledge and tools you need to take charge of your health journey. Together, we’ll unravel the mysteries of nutrition, debunk myths, and explore the abundance of wholesome, delicious foods that nature offers. My mission is not just to provide you with short-term solutions but to inspire lasting transformations that lead to a vibrant and fulfilling life.

I firmly believe that true wellness emerges from the connection between the mind, body, and spirit. Beyond meal plans and nutritional advice, I’m here to support you in fostering a positive relationship with food, embracing self-care practices, and cultivating a mindful approach to living. Our goal is to achieve a harmonious balance that radiates wellness from the inside out.

I look forward to working together as we uncover the transformative power of nutrition and embrace a life of vitality, joy, and well-being.
