The Puvema Way
We take a remarkably refreshing approach to helping you make lifestyle improvements.
“I know what I need to do: I need to eat less (because I’m a gluttonous pig) and move more (because I’m a lazy sloth).”
Nourishing food, nourishing movement, nourishing life!
First, you don’t have to be hard on yourself to motivate yourself. In fact, doing so doesn’t usually work very well, and it tends to feel terrible at the same time. Self-care isn’t about doing things to yourself; it’s about doing things for yourself. Second, wellness isn’t only about nutrition and exercise. It’s holistic. At Puvema, we focus on taking great care of ourselves by proactively meeting most of our needs most of the time. We focus on nourishing ourselves holistically.
“If it tastes good, it’s bad for you; if it tastes bad, it’s good for you.”
“It tastes good, and it’s good for you; it’s good for you, and it tastes good.”
You don’t have to choose between enjoying food and achieving your wellness goals. At Puvema, we focus on finding the intersection of effectiveness and enjoyment. We get the long-term benefits of taking great care of ourselves, and we thoroughly enjoy the process.
“No pain, no gain.”
“No pain, all gain.”
You don’t have to do exercise you hate in order to achieve your wellness goals. At Puvema, we focus on finding the intersection of effectiveness and enjoyment. We get the long-term benefits of taking great care of ourselves, and we thoroughly enjoy the process.
one-size-fits-all, quick-fix weight-loss scheme | noun | a money-making scheme sold to you by a weight-loss charlatan and snake-oil salesperson that positions you as a sucker, and in short order leaves you exactly where you were, but poorer, and feeling like a failure, again
authentic wellness approach | noun | an evidence-based approach to wellness offered to you by an intelligent, caring wellness professional that helps you cultivate sustained wellness, as well as sustained weight loss if you have weight to lose, and is a true investment in yourself that leaves you feeling terrific, both inside and outside
Unfortunately, one-size-fits-all, quick-fix weight-loss schemes are everywhere. At Puvema, we take an authentic, humanistic approach to wellness focused on truly thriving.
diet | noun | a one-size-fits-all, quick-fix, dogmatic system of eating based on exclusion and restriction, done to lose weight quickly and/or gain a sense of control in your life, that fosters yo-yo dieting, weight cycling, and/or a dysfunctional relationship with food, and leaves you feeling like a failure and like you’re constantly battling with food
anti-diet (attuned eating) | noun | a personal and natural system of eating based on enjoyment and nourishment, done as self-care, that fosters sustained wellness, as well as sustained weight loss if you have weight to lose, and leaves you feeling in harmony with yourself
Unfortunately, toxic-vapid diet culture harms millions of people every day. At Puvema, we employ the perfect antidote: attuned eating. We practice eating–and living–in harmony with ourselves.
“Just do it.”
People successfully make lifestyle improvements when they use evidence-based approaches to lasting behavior improvement and positive habit formation. People successfully make lifestyle improvements when they have robust accountability, guidance, and support.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of pervasive pop-psychology myths going around. At Puvema, we rely on evidence-based approaches to lasting behavior improvement and positive habit formation, and we never go it alone. We go it together. Because wellness starts with “we”.
