My History
Hola! I am Natali!
I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where I grew up surrounded by family, movement, and a love for health. I studied two years of Nutrition and later completed a Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education and Teaching.
I began traveling in search of new experiences and perspectives.
In 2017, I arrived in New Zealand and felt an instant connection. Life here introduced me to a quieter way of living, allowing me to breathe and live more intentionally — a peaceful contrast to the vibrant rhythm of Buenos Aires. It offered me a stillness I didn’t know I needed.
Although I had always believed I was living a healthy life, new questions began to surface. I realized that true wellness goes far beyond the physical — and so, a new journey began.
I spent time alone, embracing the practices of yoga and meditation. I reconnected — with nature, with my body, and with the deeper meaning of nourishment.
This journey led me into the world of holistic health. I studied at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), where I became a Certified Health Coach, and from there, my vision of health expanded.
I began to understand that consumption isn’t just about food — it’s also what we read, what we listen to, the relationships we nurture, our environment, and how we use our energy. Everything we absorb influences our physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
This holistic perspective naturally brought me to Ayurveda — yoga’s sister science and an ancient path of self-knowledge. I began studying at Soul Ayurveda (Chile) in collaboration with Greens Ayurveda (India), where I completed my certification as an Ayurvedic Health Counselor. Deeply in love with this path, I traveled to India to continue embodying and studying both Yoga and Ayurveda in their land of origin.
Ayurveda taught me something deeply powerful: no one can understand my health better than I can. It reminded me that we are already whole and that everything we need to create change is already within us.
That’s why I created To The Root — a space to guide you back to your own root, your true essence.
Because that’s where everything begins...
In my very first nutrition class, the teacher asked:
“Why are you studying nutrition?” At just 18, I answered without hesitation:
“Because I believe food is medicine, it can help us prevent, support, and even heal. It allows us to live longer, and truly live well.”
Today, those words still resonate deeply with me.
And I’m proud — not just of what I believed back then, but of how life has confirmed it over and over again.
Every choice we make, every day, is shaping the way we feel, live, and age.
Health isn’t something we chase — it’s something we build, moment by moment.
