My journey into holistic healing began with illness. It didn't turn out to be a serious illness, but the 9 months I spent suffering the undiagnosed physical symptoms of 24/7, head-to-toe itching (with no relief even in the shower) made it feel pretty serious to me! Eventually a "specialist" determined I was allergic to dust and wanted to put me on a cortico-steroid for an indefinite period of time. Knowing what longterm coritco-steroid use can do to the liver and kidneys, I decided to go through a cleanse and give my body the chance to do what it was designed to do--heal. I did a series of colon hydrotherapy sessions with a Naturopathic doctor and also had a series of acupuncture treatments. Along with dealing with unresolved emotional and spiritual issues, I was cured of my allergy within a few months.
Questioning the recommendation of my physician and taking my health into my own hands was one of the most empowering experiences of my life. I not only wanted to share my experience with others, but I also wanted to study holistic medicine so that my sharing would be both informed and inspirational. I decided to study Ayurvedic medicine because it was a complete system of healing, utilizing nutrition, herbs, meditation, massage and yoga. Since then, I've also become a certified yoga teacher and practitioner of the exciting new field of Dynamic Phytotherapy, a modality that combines the best of herbalism and homeopathy.
