Build Sustainable Habits for a Healthier, More Fulfilling Life
Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting wellness advice? Struggling to find healthy routines that fit your real life?
At Ananda Gardens, we believe well-being grows through meaningful relationships with our food, ourselves, each other, and the natural world. Integrative Health & Wellness Coaching brings this vision into practice by helping individuals, couples, and families build sustainable habits that support better nutrition, movement, stress management, sleep, and overall well-being.
Wellness is something we practice, not something we perfect.
Whether online or in person, this work is designed to help you build a healthier, more balanced, and more connected life, one sustainable step at a time.
Integrative Heath and Wellness Coaching
Integrative Health & Wellness Coaching is a personalized partnership that helps you create sustainable habits that support your health, well-being, and quality of life. Together, we'll focus on the areas that matter most to you, such as nutrition, movement, stress management, sleep, relationships, and overall wellness, creating realistic changes that fit your life.
Coaching is not about quick fixes. It's about developing practical daily practices that align with your goals and values. Along the way, we'll track progress, build on what's working, and make adjustments as needed. Many clients begin experiencing positive changes and greater confidence in their ability to support their health within 6 weeks, while laying the foundation for long-term well-being..

Coach Melisa Oliva
(she/her) EXA M.A., NBC-HWC
Experienced, Certified Integrative Health & Wellness Coach
Co-Founder of Ananda Gardens
I’m Melisa Oliva, co-owner of Ananda Gardens and an experienced, certified Integrative and Lifestyle Medicine Health & Wellness Coach. As a Coach and Facilitator I support individuals, couples, and families in cultivating sustainable well‑being through realistic, compassionate practices rooted in everyday life.
My work is grounded in the whole person health approach, lifestyle medicine, whole‑food plant‑based nutrition, and evidence‑based behavior change. Our work together will be dedicated to cultivating sustainable health and well‑being through practices that are realistic, compassionate, and rooted in your everyday rhythms and life style.
I live and practice on Ananda Gardens, an organic working farm where the principles I coach — nourishment, movement, rest, connection, and care — are part of daily lived experience. This context deeply informs my work, whether I’m coaching individuals online or facilitating in‑person, farm‑based learning experiences.
Rather than focusing on quick fixes or wellness trends, I partner with clients and groups to explore how health and wellness are shaped by rhythms, environments, values, and systems — and how small, meaningful changes can create long‑term impact.
