Personal health and educating others on wellness have been passions of mine for many years. My health journey began as an overweight child. I spent many years making poor food choices and ignoring my body’s need for healthy, nutritious food and a balanced lifestyle. I changed my habits at age 18 and lost a lot of weight, but spent the next 12 years in a cycle of disordered eating, poor exercise habits and on birth control pills. After getting off the pill at age 30, I had many issues with my skin, massive hair loss and struggled with infertility as I attempted to conceive my first child. These experiences were all very painful.
Infertility and my desire to start a family finally helped me make the lasting changes to heal on a deeper level. I decided to commit to both the physical and mental aspects of recovery. I learned about my individual constitution and changed my diet and lifestyle to better align with my unique body type. I also used acupuncture to support me on an energetic level. Well-being became a massive part of the healing process along with food.
Despite my challenges with health, I am grateful for the lessons I learned. They allowed me to make the true changes my body needed to become more balanced. I went on to conceive 3 healthy children and found a passion for holistic health. The experience also led me to the world of Ayurveda where I became a certified Ayurvedic health counselor.
My journey was not easy but it helped me find my true passion in life. I now share what I have learned with others and invite you to join me in your own healing journey.
