Documentary

Documentary films have the power to change us and the world. That’s why I’m so passionate about sharing these influential and inspiring stories here. From diet and fitness to sustainability and social causes, these documentaries are the fastest, most thorough way to see things from a new perspective and motivate you with healthy, holistic habits that can ripple outward. Watch these films on your own, or better yet, invite some friends over and have a movie night together. I promise these documentaries will spark some good conversations.

I have worked with Rachel for many years now and being a professional athlete I’m always looking for the best performance and nutrition possible. I was a member of the US National Cycling Team and a Silver Medalist at the US Olympic Trials. She has completely changed my life around as I’ve made bigger gains in performance now that I ever have in my whole career. She has not only given me the tools to exceed beyond my own expectations, but she has also helped me become a healthier person and this has been invaluable in my life.

The Avalon Cleanse has transformed my life—and I have done a lot of cleanses. Rachel’s attention to detail and devotion to making the cleanse work for you, along with her constant support, make it impossible to falter. It has been over a month since I finished her cleanse, and I am confidently committed to the never-ending journey of cultivating my health. It’s so exciting! She really gave me the tools I needed to fully heal my body and the way I think about it. Now I am able to live my life to its fullest and am in the best shape ever! I look and feel damn good.

I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful Holistic Immune Boosting Coaching. I got so much out of it and left quite inspired. My boyfriend and I are already taking the supplements you recommended. I’ve also switched from coffee to herbal tea when I’m writing and I’m feeling much better. I’m just more mindful in general of what I’m putting in my body. I’m looking forward to trying your cleanse soon. It will be my first and for someone who is as spiritually aware and as health conscious as I, it is long overdue!
