Teri Mosey is an international speaker, health and wellness consultant, and author of The Hidden Messages in Food. With over 25 years of experience, her work bridges science and holistic wisdom to support whole-person health.

Teri’s journey began in biochemistry and exercise physiology, with early work in immunological and neurological research at Mount Sinai and North Shore University Hospitals. Over time, her path expanded beyond the laboratory to include holistic nutrition, culinary arts, and Eastern healing traditions—leading her to earn a doctorate in holistic nutrition and train as a health-supportive chef.

She now shares her integrative approach through speaking engagements, retreats, consulting, and coaching experiences around the world, working with organizations such as Apple Inc., IDEA Health & Fitness Association, Fitness Innovations Thailand, Canadian Fitness Pro Events, Golden Door Spa, and Hofstra University. Her work explores everything from brain health and hormones to mindfulness, seasonal eating, and why true healing requires a whole-being perspective.

At the heart of Teri’s work is a deep belief that we each have the ability to co-create our health and our lives. Her mission is to guide others in reconnecting with their innate capacity for healing, awareness, and meaningful change.

“There is a saying in yoga that when the student is ready, the teacher appears. Lucky for me, I attended two of Teri's sessions at an IDEA Personal Trainer Conference. Since those sessions I've taken one of her online courses and have worked one on one with her. As I drink my scallion tea and now cook things I never dreamed I could, I include meeting Teri in my daily gratitude list. I'm warning you that her intuition is frighteningly accurate. Her understanding of eastern and western approaches to nutrition is encyclopedic. Her ability to transmit that knowledge at lightning speed is trance inducing and you are going to make changes and feel better whether you want to believe her or not. The craziest thing is you are going to love every minute of it. Her enthusiasm is boundless and her laugh lightens an entire room. Just commit and find a way to connect with her. Make yourself a ready student and hang on. Healing just became fun!” – Dean Marney

“I like to think of my time working with Teri as “My Journey to Happiness”! Teri taught me so much and I’m grateful for the way she guided me through my journey. I made a conscientious decision to do things differently in my life. The way I eat, the way I think, the way I act – all of which had a positive impact on the way I feel both physically & emotionally. My initial interest was learning about nutrition and losing weight. I’m so happy that I chose the holistic approach, because during my journey I learned that while it is important to be physically fit and maintain a healthy weight; it is just as important (maybe more so), to be emotionally well. Along with my weight loss, I no longer have heartburn issues, and less low back and shoulder pain. I am also more relaxed, less anxious and my self-talk is better. I feel a sense of peace. I will be forever grateful to Teri for leading me through my journey to happiness – truly one of the best experiences of my life!” – Alice Barker

“Having been a certified fitness professional for many years, I first met Teri at a workshop she was giving on hormones and nutrition. I was eager and ready to gain information and helpful tips to take back to my clients. Much to my surprise, I quickly learned she was speaking directly to me. Her message was one I first took in and applied to my own life. After that workshop, I decided to work with Teri one-on-one. She helped me in every way that I hoped, in several ways I could have never anticipated and in many areas I thought I was genuinely beyond help. She shared that my challenges were all connected and actually told a story. She redefined what holistic meant to me. She encouraged an exciting, refreshing new approach to food that healed me on many different levels. Teri brings together an eastern and western approach like no body else does. She has an enduring, positive energy and she envisioned my success before I even started. I'm forever grateful for how she's helped me change my life by inspiring me to change my nutrition.” – Tammy Meyer

“Working with Teri was one of the best decisions I ever made. At a time when I didn’t think I had a moment to spare due to work deadlines, Teri was unflinching in her commitment to have me widen my scope, expand my focus, become more fluid with time, people and circumstances, and not only teach me life-changing daily practices, but be an abiding presence with guidance, lessons, and moral support too. I’ve been able to detach from the large emotional swings I was experiencing, and return more quickly to an internal sense of centeredness and balance. I’m flowing more easily with circumstances outside my control, and have not only found more pleasure in my work, but in many, many interests, some long forgotten, outside my work arena. I’m happier with my diet, sleep better (through the night, rather than interrupted); I feel well and healthy. Whether from better sleep, a deeper understanding and new habits of diet, cooking for myself again, or the synergy of all this and more, I’m finding I’m making better choices day to day, and even my intuition also seems more tuned in or “available” than previously—perhaps I’m experiencing less anxiety and fear. I look forward to continuing work with Teri whenever I can—so much more to learn.” – Wendy Sax

“I feel very fortunate to have worked with Teri over the past 3 years. She always challenged me just enough, working with my personal needs and pace. In addition to her expertise in the exercise world, Teri meant so much more to me with her knowledge of Eastern healing systems. She understood my anxiety about health and other issues and handled it always with the right sense of humor, helping me to see it all in perspective. She has definitely made a positive impact on my life and has been an important part of my healing journey. I, wholeheartedly recommend Teri to anyone who is looking to make a positive change in their lives.” – Desiree Hunerberg

“My weight had been up and down my entire life. I spent a lifetime trying any diet I could get my hands on. Many times incurring in extreme exercising or diets with fast but never lasting results. By mid 40s my body started to change and nothing seemed to work. I was at my heaviest weight in years, like many my work stress was also at an all-time high and there was no time left for exercising. I was lost and couldn’t find a way forward. A friend of mine recommended Teri and with her I started a journey to health and healing. The plan was simple, not a diet but a lifestyle change. This included a different way of eating and exercising but most importantly ensuring my mind and body found balance. I trusted the process and closely followed Teri’s instructions, teachings, and recommendations. Very quickly I and those around me started noticing a drastic change not only in my body but most importantly my mind. I found my inner balance and for the first time in years I was at peace. This internal process naturally reflected on my body as I started to eat, sleep, and live a better, healthier life. I finally understood that living a healthy life requires my daily active engagement and to ensure this I now have the tools that will last me a lifetime. Teri literally changed my life and I will forever be thankful to her for the gift of health.” – Mercedes Fossa

“Unknowingly from the moment I stepped in to Teri’s session, The Hidden Messages in Food, I knew it was no mistake that I was in the right place at the right time. Personally, I was on a journey for a few different reasons, ultimately to discover ways to help improve a chronic health condition. Little did I know that food, FOOD: How, what, when, and who I was eating with was about to be challenged and forever changed. Let’s be honest, this was scary, overwhelming, and uncomfortable. No one wants to be questioned on their food choices, or the deeper meaning of those choices. Especially if you are a picky eater, like me! Working with Teri was so much more than changing a grocery list. I was able to: step outside comfort zones, understand why I was eating/not eating certain foods, and ultimately, challenge habits that no longer served a purpose. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have worked with Teri-an amazing experience that I would recommend to anyone. Teri has helped me become the best version of myself. Overall, I cannot say enough about how this experience has shifted what I think is possible, and how I feel on a daily basis. All for the better! Not to mention the greater mental clarity and weight loss.” – Lindsay Lookingbill

“A friend recommended I talk to Teri after I dieted myself into a corner, an unhealthy one at that, and totally disconnected myself from food and the pleasure of it. Of course, that was just one part of the problem, but I didn’t know at the time that body and soul are related and cured at the same time. Little did I know my life was about to change. She taught me about what-when-how to eat and I went from disliking food to cherishing every meal. But my journey was so much more than that; she also generated an awareness and gave me the tools to heal my soul and lead a healthy, balanced and much more peaceful life. The route has not been easy, she encountered resistance and doubts, yet managed to keep me on track in a very gentle, kind and most resolute way. I am so very grateful Teri, for your guidance, support and patience, you gifted me the insight and tools to lead a life I didn’t think possible. I’m happy and healthy and full of life. Thank you!” – Celia Ines

"I first heard Teri speak at the IDEA World Conference in Los Angeles, and she blew me away. I had never heard someone with such a hard-core science background talk about nutrition from such a holistic perspective. I immediately invited her to speak at JCC Manhattan, where she is now one of the cornerstones of the JCC's nutrition education program and is on our regular schedule as a speaker. Her lectures are attended by our members and community participants, as well as by our personal trainers and group fitness staff. I've worked privately with Teri as well. When I had a health crisis, the person I turned to for nutritional support was Teri. She helped me see that food is medicine and I learned how to heal and balance my body, mind and soul by what I eat.” – Caroline Knowles

“Teri Mosey is an excellent presenter, with a unique approach to nutrition, based on the comprehensive knowledge and expertise she has developed over the years, including studies and experience in exercise physiology, holistic nutrition, Eastern and Western philosophies and culinary exploration. Teri has been an excellent addition to the Asia Fitness Conference’s line-up of presenters over the last 4 years: her down-to-earth approach, her focused yet engaging presentation style and her use of visuals and stories rather than words alone has helped to make her sessions attractive and fascinating to our multi-national and multi-lingual delegates. Her ability to adapt to different audiences is truly a reflection of her professionalism and her mastery of the subject matter.” – Suzanne Hosley
