Diane Kopelakis, MS, RD

I’m a Wellness Consultant and founder of Wellness Clarified & the Community Safety Institute, helping people, families, and entire communities thrive by restoring health at both the personal and environmental level.

For decades, I worked in healthcare as a dietitian and walked through my own complex health challenges. I learned that healing doesn’t come from a pill or a quick fix; it comes from understanding how the body really works, how it responds to light, water, environment, rhythm, and the world we build around ourselves.

Today, my work has evolved. I guide individuals and companies toward natural, root-cause wellness, AND I help communities, city leaders, companies, and developers design safer, healthier environments from the homes we live in to the digital infrastructure rising around us.

Health begins within, but it’s sustained by the environment that surrounds us.
It’s the air we breathe, the water we rely on, the light that programs our biology, and the technology we place in our neighborhoods.

Why I Do This

My family, like so many others, has faced diabetes, depression, dementia, autoimmune issues, heart disease, and medication side effects that never seemed to end. I watched people I love struggle, and I struggled too, doing everything “right” but never finding lasting change. That experience taught me that real solutions must look deeper than symptoms.

My Philosophy

True wellness comes from alignment, inside the body and in the environment around it. Our biology is shaped by circadian rhythm, light exposure, water quality, EMFs, community design, safety, and the infrastructures we live beside.

So now my work bridges personal wellness with environmental and community health:

• Supporting individuals through nutrition, rhythm, and root-cause healing

• Guiding cities and developers toward safe, sustainable, community-first infrastructure

• Protecting natural resources, public health, and long-term resilience

• Ensuring technology grows without harming the people who live next to it

My goal is simple:
To help people and communities feel better, live safer, and thrive naturally, intelligently, and sustainably.

Why Wellness Clarified

That’s why I created Wellness Clarified, a place where I guide you back to the foundation of real health through my Blank Slate Diet™ and the R.E.S.T.™ Protocol, helping your body reconnect with rhythm, nature, and its own innate healing capacity.

But as my work evolved, I realized something bigger:
Your personal wellness is deeply connected to the environment around you.
That’s why I also founded the Community Safety Institute, where I help communities and leaders create healthier, safer environments that support the very biology we’re trying to heal. (You can explore that work on the Community Safety Institute tab.)

Doing “Everything Right”… But Still Don’t Feel Well?

If you’ve been eating healthy, exercising, and taking supplements yet still don’t feel your best, you’re not alone. I founded Wellness Clarified to help people uncover the real reasons behind their symptoms, not just manage them.

Most health programs focus on one small piece, food, fitness, stress, or labs.
But true wellness requires us to look deeper at how your body interacts with light, water, environment, EMFs, circadian rhythm, and daily patterns.

When you understand that, everything starts to make sense again.

We look forward to helping you.

The Blank Slate Diet™ -

Reset, Not Restrict

The Blank Slate Diet™ isn’t about restriction or counting calories. It’s about pressing reset, clearing away processed and inflammatory foods so your body can return to its natural design. For most of human history, food was whole, local, seasonal, and full of sunlight energy. When we return to that simplicity, your metabolism begins to reset, inflammation fades, and healing begins naturally.

The R.E.S.T.™ Protocol - Align Your Environment With Your Biology

Food is only part of the story. Your body also listens to light, temperature, movement, and rhythm.
R.E.S.T.™ stands for Respiration, Electricity, Sunshine, and Therapies, four pillars that recharge your cells, regulate your nervous system, and restore balance. When your environment supports your biology, your body remembers how to thrive.

Who I Help

Our services are for anyone ready to take their health and well-being back into their own hands and for those who want to understand how their environment influences their biology. We work with individuals, couples, families, athletes, and worksites, supporting people with a wide range of goals and conditions.

Whether you’re struggling with fatigue, insulin resistance, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, thyroid imbalance, digestive issues, autoimmune conditions, anxiety, depression, menopause, weight gain, or chronic inflammation, we help uncover what’s driving the imbalance and build a plan that truly works for you.

We also support those navigating chronic stress, sleep challenges, and medication side effects, as well as anyone wanting to improve their energy, clarity, and overall resilience. And through our work with the Community Safety Institute, we help clients understand how their home, workplace, technology exposure, and surrounding environment may be impacting their health and what to do about it.

Wherever you’re starting, we’ll create a plan that meets you where you are and supports your body, your rhythm, and your long-term goals.

How We’ll Work Together

Whether you want to reset your metabolism, reduce inflammation, rebuild after chronic stress, or finally feel vibrant again, we guide you step by step with clarity, compassion, and real-world solutions. You’ll learn to make sustainable changes that match your biology, your lifestyle, and your environment, not someone else’s formula.

Together, we reconnect you to the foundations of real wellness so your body can do what it was designed to do: heal, balance, and thrive.
