I was confused about how to detox and never did it before. I thought my food intake was relatively healthy, but I definitely needed to make some changes. Now, my sugar cravings are gone! I also eliminated my use of caffeine and sleep medications and wake up much more refreshed now.

- Amy, Hartford, CT

I had been unhappy with my eating habits and overall health and decided that I wanted to make some changes. After the detox I am cooking more, cooking healthier foods and have tried foods that I never would have tried before. I feel healthier and more in control of my eating habits. I feel more confident in my ability to cook and eat healthy foods. I also am not as anxious about going to Whole Foods! I'm really glad that I decided to do the detox. It was a great experience and I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. I feel that I really benefited from it and I look forward to continuing with my new healthier habits! Thank you!

I signed up for the detox because I lived in NYC for the summer and was eating out and drinking a ton. I wanted to get back into my healthy groove. As a result of the detox I lost weight and my gastrointestinal problems went away! I think Corrina ROCKS. Corrina was completely supportive and accessible and actually made me feel at ease when I was unsure of something. I think Corrina is incredibly knowledgeable about food, cooking, the effects of food on the body, and a lot more. She is an AMAZING resource.

- Jessica, West Hartford, CT

I felt sluggish and tired most of the time with no desire to do anything after work. I hadn't been able to get rid of the extra layer of fat around my middle, so overall I was feeling pretty depressed. Corrina was very encouraging and her inclusion of mind and spirit as well as physical with the emphasis on loving yourself was critical for me. I now have less cravings for coffee, pastries and ice cream. I still desire them, but I have much more control over my thinking. And more energy because of it! I'm more mindful of my eating - eating slower and appreciating the food with every bite and by doing this I feel that I am finally honoring my body. I feel more grounded and more sure of myself. I am decisive and not so wishy-washy. I am not as depressed, and have leveled out emotionally. I do still feel tired I think due to the medicine I am taking. I think since I have eliminated the toxins, the anti-depressants are working more effectively, and the side effects are too. I don't understand why I have not lost weight. To give up ice cream and cake and cookies along with following your diet, I thought I wold have lost at least 5 lbs. Maybe it will come off in the next couple of weeks.

- Marianne, West Hartford, CT

I signed up for the detox due to an extreme lack of energy and a general feeling of disorganization and lack of focus. And I lost 13 pounds! I don't wake up 'groggy' in the morning! I feel energetic and I'm also better ability to concentrate on tasks at work and at home. And I have not had allergic skin rash since the detox! I loved the recipes: Coming from a meat-lover, Corrina's recipes are great! Corrina is very supportive - very accessible - very knowledgeable and sincere.

- Susan, New York, NY

I knew that I needed more accountability to stay on track with healthier eating habits. With little time and a high stress job, I found that I would eat foods that were more convenient than they were healthy, which would exacerbate my digestive issues, my mood and my overall feelings of wellness. I needed and wanted a mindful plan to approach healthier eating with whole foods and non-allergenic foods. I have definitely gained more insight into my digestive sensitivities and how to best feed my body. Being encouraged to be mindful of my thoughts and how I eat truly changed my approach to feeding my body. The most significant improvement is having the confidence that I can have a healthy approach to food amidst the stresses of work and life. The mindfulness that I have gained through this program has changed how I approach eating. I no longer go through the day eating mindlessly and reaching for foods that are easy to squeeze in. I learned how to make delicious recipes, to eat in the moment - tasting, savoring and chewing my food, and listening to my body and what it needs. Due to my food allergies and the effects that foods have on my mood and energy, this program gave me the insight that I needed in a very do-able program. I think this is an amazing detox and would definitely do it again!

- Heather, Bloomfield, CT

I wasn't sure how to eat for my needs. I wanted to learn new recipes, including how to eat for my lactose intolerance, as well as reduce my sugar and carbohydrate intake. Post detox I felt great! And I learned that eating healthy is economical! Corrina is very knowledgeable about cooking & food effects on the body! I would definitely recommend her to friends who want to try a detox. My digestion definitely improved! I also have more energy and a more positive outlook on things! The results were amazing.

- Maeve, Windsor, CT

Corrina's energy is very calming. It was great speaking with her during our coaching sessions because it helped me focus on what I needed to concentrate on and also different ways of looking at this situation (ie diet = taking care of myself in general) that I really didn't let myself think about. Also having done other detoxes in the past I really like the slow way that we were lead into it and then lead back out. The other ones I have done weren't bad but in some ways I think they might have been a bit of a shock to the system. Also I have never been educated on how different foods affect the body like this detox has done for me. It has always been about just cleaning out the system, not giving you a way of living and eating that you can incorporate into your everyday life. Corrina also gave us other tools to battle stress and negative thinking in our lives, like breathing, journaling, and meditation. So basically what this all comes down to is that her approach is very well rounded. Oh and I love the recipes!

I have a much more balanced diet, which is something that I was lacking before. And I have lost 11 pounds in 3 weeks, which is exactly the jump start I needed and was looking for.

- Gene, Brooklyn, NY

I always feel that my clothes fit me best when I do a detox. I also think my mood improves as I love experimenting with the recipes and sharing them with my husband, who was pretty positive about them all too... so that makes it more fun for me too.

- Gail, Southington, CT

I love Corrina's positive and joyous attitude toward food as self-care. Throughout the detox I felt very supported and guided. I also felt that I was in the hands of an expert, which made it easier for me to let go and trust that the information that I was getting was valid. I now feel that food is something that can be harmonious for me, not a "battle" or a chore, not endless numbers of caleries and portions, but healthy, abundant meals I cab be fully open to. I understand how easy it is to incorporate greens, colors, and whole grains into my diet. This detox has healed some issues for me that were lingering for a long time. I previously felt that this sort of committed self-care was self-indulgent. I feel the opposite now! I feel that it is 100% okay to treat myself well through food. It's been a powerful experience for me.

- Maureen, West Hartfod

I was feeling tired and not balanced energy wise - either hyper or too low. After doing the 3-Week Fall Detox I noticed that eating less meat, and more dark green veggies and whole grains gave me more sense of ease and relaxed clarity.

- Elisabeth, West Hartford, CT

I went into the new year feeling very bloated and unaware of the foods that made me feel good, not just those that tasted good. I was literally just confused about how and where to start. Corrina has never ever pushed a concept or food onto me. She's understanding and approachable, accepting and encouraging. Post-detox my digestive system is almost 100% on track. I have discovered the foods that make me feel gross, and I'm aware of how to avoid them. I learned that anything with wheat ruins my stomach, so I'm avoiding that as much as I can. I have more energy and confidence in addressing other issues as well. I am able to make better and healthier decisions. I'm not 100% on target, but I'm confident that I can take what I've learned and move it forward.

- Jen, Windsor, CT

The phone calls were helpful as they kept me accountable for my commitment to the program. the information and knowledge Corrina provided were very good, she's supportive without being controlling. I really like the approach of letting it be our own detox.

- Carrie, Canton, CT

I've done Corrina's detoxes in the past and find the seasonal detox a welcome ritual now. I love that the approach is gradual and I appreciate the support of the two phone calls. I also like that this wasn't a master cleanse type thing. There were moments early on where I was cataloging all the things that I wanted to have when I was done, but by the end, the "detox" diet ended up being something I want to try and keep as the foundation of my core everyday diet. (With that all important 10% fudge factor :) I'm no longer drinking coffee or any caffeine products, I'm eating more fruits and vegetables and less meat and bread - overall I'm doing more home cooking. And as a result I have better, steady energy throughout the day which means I feel more centered in my life and my choices.

- Erin, New York

I loved doing the Be Nourished Detox! I feel awesome and have received so many compliments about the 7 lbs I lost! Yes, the weight is still staying off. :) I’m changing my eating habits; no dairy, no coffee and meat less often. Drinking my smoothies and watching those sweets by using your recipes for desserts. If you hadn't kept sending those e-mails to me I probably never would have had the chance to work with you, so thank you for your persistence!

- Faye, West Hartford, CT

I was interested in the detox after reading about it in Corrina's newsletter. My main challenge in getting healthier is my sometimes bad eating habits. I experienced great improvement in my sleeping and I definitely felt more relaxed and peaceful. I had blood work done during the detox and my cholesterol was down 20 points and my doctor said my numbers were excellent. I can only attribute this to the detox, and I was so surprised it happened after only 1-2 weeks.

- Terry, West Hartford

Corrina is very knowledgeable and is an excellent teacher. She makes it fun and easy to understand. I lost 7 lbs, my foggy brain became clearer, I felt more rested, my mood was happier, I felt lighter and my normal "every 3 days" bowel movements went to 2 times a day. FANTASTIC! The podcasts were great because I could listen to and really get psyched about what I was doing and the master checklist was very helpful in keeping me on track.

- Sue, Manchester, CT

I met Corrina and started receiving her newsletter at a time when I was anxious for a nutrition overhaul and the Fall detox was just what the doctor ordered. Better skin, softer hair, increased energy levels and alleviation of digestion issues. I wish everyone in my life could benefit from Corrina's knowledge and expertise. I felt incredible at the end of the 3 weeks!

- Ryan, Washington DC

I heard from a friend how wonderful the detox experience was for her. Corrina's balanced guidance and flexibility were perfect! I feel clearer in my mind; more on target with my direction and my power to get there. My digestion is regular and efficient; wow, that detox tea really works! II am so impressed by Corrina's depth and breadth of wisdom. I'll be waiting for her book and TV show next!

- Margaret, Burlington, CT

I was ready for a change. I had been overwhelmed at work and not taking care of myself. This detox was the motivator to get my life back in balance again. Post detox I feel healthier and more in control of my eating and life and I have no more heartburn! I used the detox recipes daily. I continue to use the recipes - especially the Nutty Quinoa Porridge and the green smoothies...yum!

- Lisa, Newington, CT

My favorite part of Corrina's approach is the flexibility and custom feel of the program. I don't feel deprived or boxed in about my choices. Corrina understands where I am coming from and how to help me get to where I want to be. I am really ENJOYING eating better. I don't feel like it's a sacrifice - in fact it's delicious! Physically I feel better and have more energy. This experience has helped me learn to incorporate healthy eating at home no matter how busy I am and what's going on in my life. It also made me see that weight loss and healthy eating are absolutely attainable and maintainable without feeling that you are sacrificing delicious meals. I have worked with Corrina before and this detox really helped make it all "click." The structure and the 3 week length really helped me to learn to incorporate healthy eating into any situation and not feel deprived. I think Corrina should compile all of your information and recipes into a book!
