About Me
It is my mission to share the tools you need to be your own health guru. I have studied with some of the best herbalism teachers today and have achieved my Master’s of Herbalism in addition to complementary services like Reiki and THM lifestyle coaching.
Honestly, I haven’t always been interested in herbs. I grew up mostly healthy, but with a constant cold every winter that often progressed to strep throat. When I was sick, I would go to the doctor and was often prescribed anti-biotics.
I didn’t question this model of care until the birth of my first child. After my experience with 1st child’s birth, I never wanted to feel powerless or at the mercy of a system not based on individual health ever again. Now luckily I don’t have to and neither do you.
For my second child I was introduced to midwifery care and found a completely different model. One that gave me the tools to enhance my health and prevent minor problems that lead to big problems in pregnancy. I was introduced to herbs, nutritional and lifestyle enhancement that vastly improved my health and outcomes.
I caught my 2nd child myself, standing up in my own home and at full term. I felt empowered, incredibly strong in my body and mind’s ability to care for me and my own.
Over and over again I hear stories of people that suspect there are things that they can do to enhance their over-all health, but they feel victim to a system that doesn’t encourage or in some cases even allow this exploration.
When my father was bit by a deer tick, his doctor (a man we still highly respect) said there was nothing to do but wait two weeks and take the Lyme test. However, we now knew different and were able to increase his overall health and the test came back negative!
You too can take charge of your health. You can directly affect the outcome, and make the change to holistic health.
What I do
Nourish
I connect to the archetype of Mother. I am “The Mother” I nurture not only myself, but my children, family and community. Some tools I use to accomplish this are plant allies and herbs, energy work (reiki and astrology) and healthy foods for the body mind and soul.
Grow
This is where the archetype Seeker comes in. Personal growth–becoming my true authentic self is my highest goal. I am passionate about working with my family to help each individual find the path to their authentic self. It’s not all work, celebration and playtime are important to growth as well.
Change
The archetype of the Warrior. The times are changing, the energy is shifting. I feel this individually and collectively. Social justice is one way that change will come about. But change also begins with me.
