Hi there, I’m Christine! Welcome to Real Yummies with Chris. I am currently living in Southern California with my husband. I am a Board Certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant, Art Therapist, and Hypnotherapist.

Real Yummies with Chris is a community of individuals with various dietary needs (including intolerances and allergies) looking to feel good, trust their bodies, and tune into their inner wisdom.
