More About Heather Parkinson and Nourishing Attention Inc.

I am a Calgary based Certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant and Certified Culinary Nutrition Expert dedicated to helping families decode the mysteries of eating healthy. As a parent of two teenagers, one formally diagnosed with ADHD, and the rest of our family highly suspected, I have chosen to share my discoveries with other families impacted by ADHD. For the last two years, I have taught nutrition to classes of junior high students at Foothills Academy (a school dedicated to supporting students with learning challenges), and I am currently creating a nutrition based cooking program for the same age group. It is my philosophy to teach families to enjoy food and remind them that it’s always what’s on the inside that counts. The nutrients inside the food we eat, what happens inside our bodies when we eat that food, and how we nurture our thoughts and creativity inside our minds. When we eat nutrient dense food in a way that supports our brain and healthy digestion, life becomes a celebration for us and those around us!

Now that’s Nourishing Attention!
