Your Wellness
We focus on three essentials in your wellness appointment, providing clear understanding, education and guidance to help you reach your health goals confidently.
What is a Master Herbalist?
As an Herbalist, I have completed extensive study of plants, and how to use them to effectively benefit the body and maintain good health using plants nutritionally and therapeutically in a variety of forms, such as dried, tinctures, glycerites, essential oils and so on. They can be used internally, topically, and aromatically. After years of study, I completed the certification process. When working together, we go over diet, lifestyle, and other areas to evaluate what alterations can be implemented to reach the desired goals you set. First appointment: intake, evaluate, set goals and implement basics. Second appointment; discuss program and implement personalized program. Third appointment: Review, Adjust and Evaluate goals. I started this journey to help people understand their health through simple, clear guidance focused on real-life wellness. This is all about you, and your health.
My Story
Education, support, and achievable goals shape every appointment.
Growing up, I practically lived on Coke, frozen fried chicken, and frozen honey buns. But when I was 22, I met a friend who was determined to introduce healthy foods to me. So he took me to a variety of exotic restaurants to experience all kinds of foods from all over the world, especially vegetables. I became interested in learning to cook naturally. I enjoyed making homemade breads, soups, and many different recipes. I had my first daughter, then my second daughter, and cooking naturally started to go by the wayside. Then I had my four boys. They were full of energy and, I must say, a bit of a handful. Actually, we were a mess! Our diets were a disaster and it was affecting all of us. At 14, my daughter started having horrible migraines. I took her to several doctors, Temple Hospital, and Children’s Hospital. She had many different tests done and the headaches persisted. The boys couldn’t sit still or focus on their schoolwork. I started to look for answers on my own. I found that, by adjusting our diet, we all felt better. I was no longer waking up stiff each morning. We had success in relieving my daughter of her headaches and even calmed down my boisterous boys. Cooking naturally again became an exciting adventure! I started to look for answers on my own. I found that, by adjusting our diet, we all felt better. I was no longer waking up stiff each morning. We had success in relieving my daughter of her headaches and even calmed down my boisterous boys. Cooking naturally again became an exciting adventure! And so our health journey had begun. I fell in love with all the new exciting ways to prepare food for my family. At first, I thought that taking the foods that I had been familiar with out of our diet would be limiting, but instead I discovered so many more flavors that are delicious and beneficial to our bodies. But I found that there are times in which problems come up, like colds, injury or lifestyle diseases, and I wanted new solutions that were natural and weren’t toxic. Excitedly, I embarked on my education to become an Herbalist to use plants to bring balance to the body, improve health, and help others to have the amazing results that I had using natural methods. My experience of helping others to a journey of better health is what I want to share with you.
