Amber Attell

Amber is a Certified Holistic Nutritionist and Yoga Instructor who created Vibrant Roots Wellness to inspire wholesome living from the ground up. 

After years of corporate hustle and serving others over herself, she reclaimed her body and life through the fundamentals of food, movement and mindset. When she attended the prestigious school of holistic nutrition, Bauman College, she strove to help others break free from the cycle of over-giving and depletion. 

Amber shares the lived experience of evolving with grace and helps others reclaim their power. She brings science-backed strategies and deep listening to inspire real change. 

Amber was gifted her first yoga mat by her grandmother at a young age. Her mother brought her to her first yoga class.  Throughout her life, yoga has not been just a tool for physical fitness or flexibility, but a true art of consciousness. Throughout everyday challenges, yoga has been a touchstone, a way of living that restores resilience, clarity and joy. 

As her career in nutrition deepened, yoga became a way to connect communities and accelerate healing processes. Her work creating events and retreats is a practice in establishing immersive experiences of the harmonious exchange between mind, body and spirit. 

 Her passion is to bring people home to their true source of nourishment and peace. 



Testimonials

I was introduced to Amber during a very difficult time, when I was completely depleted, depressed, and suffering from multiple issues of somatic related pain and discomfort and taking multiple medications. My bowels were inflamed, I had back pain, I had low energy throughout the day, and difficulty sleeping. I started seeing an acupuncturist who referred me to Amber for nutrition counseling. Although I am a nurse, I had no idea how ill informed I was about my diet and the effects it had on my life. On day one Amber gave me a new understanding of my body and the control I have over it. She opened my mind and helped transform my perspective, while giving me the tools I needed to live a holistic lifestyle. Her vibrance, excitement, and compassion for healing gave me the extra push and motivation I had been missing to make positive changes in my life. After a year working with Amber both with holistic nutrition and attending her yoga classes, I have been medication free. My energy has dramatically improved. My inflammation is under control. And overall I am living more connected to my body, feeling empowered, confident, and comfortable. I no longer feel controlled by my pain. I am aware it’s there, but my relation to it has shifted. I feel ALIVE. Thank you Amber!

I had never consulted a nutritionist Amber, nor did I know what to expect. What I found is extraordinary. Amber digs deep to find those emotions, attitudes and behaviors that link to my eating habits. Almost a year later, I am more educated on HOW to eat food than I ever thought possible. I decided to go gluten-free 9 months ago in response to an auto-immune disease, and Amber has been a saving grace. She thoroughly explains what foods to eat to ensure that I am getting proper nutrition and to make sure I avoid certain foods. More importantly, Amber takes note of my goals and she focuses me in every time we meet. She makes me feel empowered, relaxed and good about myself. Today, I’m healthy, happy and so very excited to be living life to the fullest.

The Vibrant Roots Wellness method towards introducing nutrient dense food to my family’s lifestyle was incredibly successful. During our initial consultation, Amber reviewed my personal food journal as well as the meals I had recently prepared for my kids and husband. Knowing they are picky eaters, Amber was able to substitute certain meals for others that are more health-conscious. Now I can cook with the confidence of knowing my family is receiving health benefits from (almost) every meal.

Prior to our first meeting Amber analyzed my food journal and pinpointed patterns in my diet that I wouldn’t have found on my own. I had worked with a nutritionist before, but Amber’s approach considered many aspects of my lifestyle and didn’t just focus on food and diet. I have lost weight, but the most incredible part of my new lifestyle is how I feel every day.
