About Maureen
Peace, be still
DynaMO Truth Health and Wellness exists to help individuals find peace in their brains and bodies so that they are able to experience the greatest health and wellness possible. Focus is put on bridging the gap between individuals and their health care providers and to inspire them to use strategic nutritional and lifestyle choices so that they are better able to achieve what their other health practitioners recommend in such a way that improved physical and mental health will be experienced by both children and adults. Each unique individual’s personal story is significant and utilized in developing a strategic plan to optimize health for each client. Although all of the programs will be of help to anyone as they seek to improve their health, a primary focus is on children and their learning as well as adults and the elderly in preventing cognitive decline, memory impairment and physical disease.
My Story
Her pursuit to intervene in whatever way possible for the best cognition and health of her daughter and the rest of her children led her to the area of functional nutrition. Thus, she established a business to teach people about their bodies and brains and how the two are connected. This has enabled her to teach people how to nourish their whole person through social connections and lifestyle and not just with food and to teach people that the gut and the brain are connected and impact their mood and ability to think and be energized.
Her purpose is to seek peace and pursue it; to do good and to take action. She seeks to encourage others by guiding them to make strategic choices that help them to do what they already know they should do by replacing the misinformation they might believe with with what is actually true. Her hope is to inspire others to get healthy and stay healthy, to help children establish good health and learning and to empower others as they age to maintain good health, memory and cognition so that they are able to enjoy their lives and be a productive member of society all of their days. She is a certified teacher and graduate of Iowa State University, a registered RN with a BSN and master’s degree from the University of Iowa, a functional nutrition counselor from the Functional Nutrition Alliance, a certified health coach from the Health Coach Institute and an Allied Functional Medicine Practitioner. In addition to her formal training at universities, she is also a certified cognitive therapist through the Equipping Minds Cognitive Therapy Program which has been shown to improve cognition for both adults and children.
Maureen maintains a safe place for all people no matter their current condition or history, a place where she can encourage and show empathy to people who desire more support and guidance than what they are experiencing. While she does not give medical advice, she strives to bridge the gap between her clients and their healthcare providers by providing beneficial information and guidance for the brain, body and beliefs so individuals are able to follow the advice given to them by the professionals. Her goal to understand each individual and their personal story and history is foundational in coaching them to establish new patterns but also to walk alongside them through the struggle and challenge of their personal journey. It is her sincere hope that her clients will realize and enjoy peace in both their brains and bodies as well as in their relationships and overall life experience.
