I truly believe in living a self-sufficient lifestyle. I also strongly believe that natural medicine and healing techniques allow our bodies to come into balance the way that nature intended. I use the techniques, products, passions and rituals that I write about in my everyday life.
I was raised in the desert southwest in a very “traditional” family. My family was a very devoutly Catholic household, that valued, not just a strong work ethic, but a very unsustainable level of consumerism. From an early age, I felt like I didn’t belong to “society” as it was presented to me. As a young adult, I sought out many different experiences in lifestyle and spirituality. I had been instilled with drive and determination, but I knew that society’s definition of success would never make me happy. So, I set out to find my passion and purpose.
Through quite a misspent youth, I developed several debilitating health issues. At 45, I spent almost 3 years bedridden on a liquid diet. I have always felt like my purpose was in healing, especially working in behavioral health, which I did before getting sick. What a catalyst!!
That was more than a decade ago, and my health journey has included an almost complete divorce from western medicine, a complete change in the way I fuel my body and following my instincts to get up and move. I changed, literally, everything. The realization that what I put in and, on my body, was killing me, lead me to an increasingly natural lifestyle. The fact that what we are being sold is basically poisoning us, led me to this. The need to share this information far and wide, so that, hopefully, nobody else would have to go through what I did. I believe there is a much more sustainable way to live life, through a more minimalist approach, herbalism and NATURAL living. This philosophy leads me back to the pagan roots I discovered when I first left home.
I hope that anyone who reads this or is going through something similar feels comfortable enough to reach out. I am willing to teach anyone how to take responsibility for your health, your life and your wellbeing. Blessed be!
