Health Coaching

David Cantu is an extraordinary guide. I have been to many counselors over the years and some have truly helped me, but David took me to a whole new level. He really listens and through his gentle and spirit-filled voice, speaks amazing words of wisdom, clarity, and truth. I came to him ostensibly to lose weight but needed to work through the emotional barriers that kept me stuck and walled in. At the time I felt frustrated that I was not willing to release the excess weight I carried, but now…a few months after David and I completed our work together (or at least stage one)…I am peacefully eating well, increasing my exercising and losing weight.

I feel that David helped me really hear the words I spoke and really see the actions I took. He asked me to hold myself accountable for my words and actions. At no time did he make me feel bad if I slid or just didn’t want to do what he suggested. He always told me it was my choice. That helped me to feel more powerful … I got to choose … and I began to make healthier choices.

David contributed to me now having a peacefulness, calm, contentment, and joy that I have never before felt on a day-to-day basis. He challenged me to take all the energy and resourcefulness I used to deal with crises and apply that to lifting myself up now when things are calm. He demonstrated acceptance and non-attachment and shared experiences from his own life that helped me to understand and to feel connected with him.

I have told many friends and acquaintances about David and his real gift of working with people. Thank you, David, for the difference you have made in my life.
