Holistic Nutrition Counselling

Feel light again.

Waking up without bloating. Energy that carries you through the evening. The feeling of finally understanding what's good for you — instead of chasing the next trend. This isn't wishful thinking. This is Ayurveda, translated into your daily life.

No obligation. Free of charge.

For greater wellbeing.

  • Healthy digestion
  • Stable energy
  • Natural vitality

Why doesn't 'healthy eating' work?

You're doing everything right. And yet your body rebels.

More vegetables, less sugar, the 'right' breakfast. You follow the rules — but your body didn't get the memo. Instead of lightness: bloating, fatigue, frustration.

  • Digestion in a state of emergency.

    Bloating, fullness, constipation — or all of the above, taking turns. Your gut is unpredictable and dictates how your day goes. Not you.

  • Running on empty.

    Tired in the morning, in a slump at noon, too exhausted by evening for anything but Netflix. You function. But life should feel different.

  • A head full of nutrition rules.

    Low carb, intermittent fasting, clean eating — the more you know, the less certain you become. Every new recommendation contradicts the last. What actually works for YOU?

The Ayurvedic approach

Understand your body.

Ayurveda flips the logic: instead of rules from outside, you learn to read the signals from within. Your digestive fire, your rhythm, your constitution — once you understand how your body works, wellbeing follows naturally.

  • Digestion that cooperates.

    No more guessing what you can tolerate and what you can't. Your gut goes from troublemaker to ally — and you move through the day freely again.

  • Energy that carries.

    Not the brief high after your third coffee. But a steady strength that's there in the morning and still holds by evening. For everything that matters to you.

  • Clarity that stays.

    You know what's good for you. Not because an app says so, but because you feel it. Eating becomes simple — and gets to be enjoyable again.

No obligation. Free of charge.

Astor Schneider – Nutrition Consultant

'I don't give you rules. I give you clarity.'

I know the frustration when your body won't cooperate — even when you're doing everything 'right'. I know what it's like to jump from one recommendation to the next and still not get anywhere. You're not undisciplined. You don't lack willpower either. What you're missing is the translation — for YOUR body, YOUR life.

What I teach, I've lived myself for years. My work is grounded in Ayurvedic principles — a health system thousands of years old. No dogma, no mysticism. An approach that's shaped around you, not an ideology.

Quick check

Is holistic nutrition counselling right for you?

My counselling is for you if…

  • You feel that nutrition is the key — but can't find the door it opens.

  • You want to understand, not just follow instructions. No rules from outside; clarity from within.

  • You're willing to look honestly and change something. Not everything at once. But genuinely.

My counselling is not for you if…

  • You're looking for a ready-made nutrition plan to work through.

  • You expect results without being actively involved yourself.

  • You need medical treatment for a diagnosed condition or eating disorder.

Ayurveda and nutrition — facts over myths

Forget what you think you know about Ayurveda.

Three misconceptions I hear repeatedly — and what's actually behind them.

  • 'Ayurveda means cooking Indian food with exotic spices.'

    Quite the opposite. We work with what grows here and suits you. Regional, seasonal, practical. Yes, spices play a role — but not ones you need to hunt down in specialist shops.

  • 'Does that mean going vegetarian?'

    No. Ayurveda is not dogma. What matters is what YOUR body digests well — and that depends on your constitution, not an ideology. Some people need meat. Others don't.

  • 'That sounds like mysticism and mumbo-jumbo.'

    Understood. But Ayurveda is a systematic health system with clear principles — whose approaches to daily rhythms, nutrition, and digestion are increasingly gaining recognition in modern research. No incense sticks required.

How the consultation works

No off-the-shelf nutrition plan. A path that adapts to you.

We work iteratively: test, observe, adjust. Until your nutrition fits like a bespoke suit — not a straitjacket.

  • Observe

    You record your current diet and habits. No judgement, just clarity. Awareness is the first step.

  • Understand

    The initial consultation involves a comprehensive initial assessment: your concerns, health, life circumstances, and eating behaviour. I want to know where you actually are — not where a textbook says you should be.

  • Act

    We define small, concrete steps. Perhaps a warm breakfast. Perhaps hot water in the morning. No radical overhaul — just what's needed right now.

  • Adjust

    In weekly 1:1 sessions, we review: what worked? What didn't? We adjust, refine, go deeper. Your body gives feedback — we listen.

  • Anchor

    Until your new way of eating is no longer a diet. But part of you. This typically takes 2–3 months. Then you're ready — for yourself.

Pricing

An investment in what lasts.

No monthly fee, no subscription model. You invest once — in knowledge and an understanding of your body that no one can take from you.

Testimonial

'Significantly fitter and more energetic.'

Before coming to Astor, I was new to Ayurveda and wanted to determine my nutritional type to optimise my diet and lifestyle. My goal was more wellbeing, more energy in everyday life, and better mental performance. When I worked with Astor, he conveyed the subject with exceptional clarity, real-world applicability, and no unnecessary complexity. The recommendations were immediately actionable, including concrete routines and Ayurvedic cooking, which I genuinely enjoyed. The results convinced me: the cleanse was a complete success — I feel significantly fitter and more energetic, have achieved a great physique, lost almost no muscle mass, and can feel that my metabolism is working noticeably better. I don't regret a single cent and recommend Astor to anyone looking for natural health, performance, and clear guidance.
