About Meghan Crutchley and Wisdom Body Health
This Work Saved My Life.
Now I Help Others Change Theirs.
I'm a Conscious Behavior Change Coach, a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC), with a Master’s in Education and an undergraduate degree in Buddhist Studies. For over a decade, I’ve helped individuals create sustainable, values-aligned change using mindfulness-based strategies that go far beyond surface-level fixes. I also spread this message of healing connection as a speaker, writer, and workshop facilitator, who’s worked with a wide range of communities, organizations, and nonprofits.
The “wisdom body,” rooted in Buddhist philosophy, refers to our fully awakened self—not as some mystical ideal, but as an innate part of who we already are. For me, reconnecting with my own wisdom body began when I stopped dieting, began meditating, and started listening inward. Through mindfulness, stillness, and self-compassion, I slowly peeled back the layers of shame and conditioning that had kept me at war with myself for years.
I was a passionate athlete who dieted constantly and hated my unruly body. Finally, at a breaking point I realized that what I needed wasn’t more discipline—it was more compassion. It wasn’t just my habits that needed to change; it was the story I’d been told about my worth, my body, and who I was allowed to be.
Relying on my studies in Buddhist philosophy, I turned to meditation and could finally feel that my body wasn't a problem, it was my teacher. Over time, I learned that our bodies carry a deep, intuitive knowing far beyond what the mind can grasp. This is the essence of the wisdom body: a felt sense of truth, a quiet clarity beneath the noise of shame and self-judgment. Reconnecting with this internal compass changed everything. I got stronger—not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. I started making choices from alignment rather than fear.
My clients come to me not just to change behaviors, but to transform their relationship with food, stress, work, and most importantly, themselves. They’re looking for practical solutions, but what they leave with is something deeper: a renewed connection to their own inner wisdom. They feel more peace. They leave toxic relationships. They step into leadership roles, change careers, and begin making intentional choices that reflect who they truly are.
That’s why I call myself a Conscious Behavior Change Coach, because real, sustainable change with our health and body starts by making the unconscious conscious. When we bring awareness and compassion to our patterns we stop being controlled by them. That’s the real measure of change that sticks.
What Is the Wisdom Body?
The wisdom body (or jnanamaya-kaya) represents the Buddha’s full realization — the embodiment of truth, clarity, and liberation. This isn’t something distant or mystical. It was the result of turning inward, facing reality without flinching, and waking up to what had always been true. That same capacity lives in you, and is available to all of us through intentional awareness and embodied presence.
Reconnecting with your wisdom body is not about self-improvement. It’s about self-remembrance. It’s about reclaiming your worth as inherent and non-negotiable, and honoring the parts of you that have always known the way forward.
