This is what happened to me, and trust me it wasn't fun, but I'm glad now.

HEY BABE! 

 

How are you? I am feeling the energy building as we move through spring towards beltane {May 1st} which is a celebration of our returning vitality after winter!

 

AND I am over here celebrating the re-opening of my natural health clinic, Energetic Alchemy!

 

Maybe you didn't know that I've been a Holistic Health Practitioner, Herbalist, Vibrational Medicine Practitioner, Reiki Master, and IIN certified Holistic Nutrition Coach that has specialized in TCM + Ayurvedic + Nature based practices for Women's Health for the past 30+ years

 

I started my education in 1994 to help heal my severe eczema and digestive issues that came from v@xx injury. None of the doctors I saw could figure out what to do other than prescribe me MORE MEDS. I finally learned how to heal myself with herbs, homeopathics, vibrational remedies, Reiki, and nutrition.

 

I did lots of trainings, apprenticeships and collected a bunch of certifications, and worked as a Practitioner helping others like me for many years.

 

When my 17 year old was born in April 2009, I felt the call to step away from working as a practitioner to attend to my own health issues {I was one burned out mama of 4 kids} and stay at home with my baby.

 

In the spring of 2011, I fully stepped back into truly caring for myself and allowing the trauma I had stored up in my body to come up for healing.

 

cuz omg childhood trauma, single mama working 6 jobs trauma, birth trauma, parent dying trauma, divorce trauma, burnout trauma... and all the things finally caught up with me

 

AND IT WAS ALL SMASHED INTO MY BODY TO KEEP ME "SAFE". 

 

AND ALL THE SUDDEN IT WAS SCREAMING AT ME.

 

allllll at the same time, yikes.

 

I had constant headaches, insane digestive issues {couldn't leave my house for more than 45 minutes at a time}, crippling anxiety, my eczema was back with a vengeance, I was dizzy with vertigo, short of breath, had chest pains, joint pains, my back kept going out, and I weighed 190 pounds which was 70 pounds over my normal weight.

I didn't even recognize myself anymore.

 

I literally thought I was dying.

 

I went to my doctor at the time, and he sent me on a wild goose chase to try to figure out what was wrong {we suspected the big C} so I had every test, all the bloodwork...

 

AND THEY FOUND NOTHING.

 

Well actually, they said my spleen was swollen, which meant I was recovering from some kind of virus, which they said they could do nothing about.

 

So my doctor did what most doctors do, he prescribed me an antidepressant.

 

Which I did not take.

 

What I did instead: I fired him.

 

Then I went home and found a "holistic practitioner" and after my 2 hour appointment with her, she told me I was fine, but said, "here, take this crap load of expensive supplements, they'll make you feel better!"

 

I went home feeling like I must be going crazy, if there wasn't anything wrong, why did I feel so bad???

 

This pushed me to investigate WTF was going on.

 

I dove deep back into vibrational medicine and TCM and Ayurveda, Nutrition, and herbology.

 

I realized I was so toxic that my body wasn't able to clear itself properly. My detox pathways were almost completely blocked.

 

{BTW, this is the root cause of what d.r's are calling histamine intolerance, post viral syndrome, long c0v1d, MCAS, etc... so don't fall for the call to buy expensive supplements, they honestly just make it worse}

 

So, I created a spring cleanse protocol for myself. 

 

I changed my diet, I started moving my body differently, I got back to meditation and showing up for myself. I worked with a grief program. I started using herbs and vibrational medicine again.

 

It was like a miracle.

 

My skin cleared up, I had more energy. I lost 70 pounds. But even more importantly, I started to feel better physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually. 

 

I started being creative again, making herbal remedies, sleeping better, and the best thing was, I was able to play with my kids again...

 

I felt like MYSELF again. 

 

This was the start of my spring reset detox cleanse that I have done each spring since then.

 

I have added to it each year, as my body shares more wisdom with me.

 

Like back in 2017, when my dentist overdosed me on epinephrin and caused my kidneys to start to fail. That wasn't fun. I ended up adding more protocols in and healing myself from that too.

 

Then back in 2020 when I had IC, and histamine intolerance, and MCAS, and my immune system started going haywire... I added more protocols in for that, and healed myself again.

 

Then once again in 2023, when perimenopause started to really hit me hard, I added in more protocols and got myself back to balance again.

 

This past winter has been so intense {hello, later years of perimenopause} and has led me to add even more to my protocols.

 

See, we will always have to work to help our bodies stay balanced and vital. 

 

I feel like going through all of this happened FOR me, not TO me, and it has made me a better practitioner and shown me how to help YOU more effectively as well.

 

Because I have been there and I understand. AND I am the proof that my protocols work. No one believes me when I say I'm 51. I look AND FEEL better at 52 than I did at 37.

 

If you’re struggling with:

 

✨morning {or all day} exhaustion

✨afternoon brain fog

✨insomnia or waking at 3-4am each night

✨anxiety/panic attacks

✨body aches, sore muscles, achy joints

✨headaches or migraines

✨cycle disturbances {lighter or heavier bleeds, intense cramping}

✨stubborn bloating and digestive upsets

✨skin that feels itchy and irritated

✨allergies or a “spring cold” that keeps returning

✨histamine responses

✨boredom or disinterest in life

✨not feeling like yourself lately, or maybe just somehow “off”

 

👉you’re not alone, this is so common at this time of the year

 

✨You’ve likely tried quick fixes, but deep down, you know you need a complete, loving reset that supports your body’s natural detoxification pathways.

 

Because Springtime is nature’s deep cleanse.

 

It happens whether you’re aware of it or not.

 

BUT, if you are willing to collaborate with her, you can use this time as a reset to reboot your system, inviting your body to flush winter’s stagnancy and allow vibrant health and vitality to return.

 

I advise these four steps for cleansing at this time:

 

✨1. Awaken & Clear- open your detox pathways to allow stagnancy to clear

 

✨2: Flow & Release- move your body babe!

 

✨3: Radiate & Nourish- replace low vibe foods with those that truly promote healing

 

✨4: Align & Sustain- create new habits that will continue to nourish you throughout the year ahead

 

This is the foundation of my Energetic Alchemy Spring Reset program! And it’s customized to fit your body's specific needs {cuz if you do a general one size fits all detox or cleanse like you find online, you could actually be making it all worse instead of better}

 

By focusing on a gentle reset rather than a harsh detox, this program replenishes the body rather than depriving it. It aligns with nature’s rhythm, using the spring season to release stagnation and boost overall vitality.

 

ARE YOU READY TO GET BACK TO FEELING LIKE YOURSELF?

 

This 4 week program includes recorded video content, e-books, workbooks, and four 1:1 weekly 60 minute virtual sessions, and is aimed at helping you improve your well-being and detox the effects of winter.

 

Spring Cleanse Your Life: Nourish Your Body, Clear Your Mind, and Renew Your Energy

Rise & Renew: A 28-Day Gentle Holistic Spring Reset

 

 

 

IT'S TIME TO GET BACK TO LOVING LIFE AGAIN!

 

I have lots more info HERE and also sliding scale pricing available so that this program is available for EVERYONE.

 

The only thing is: I ONLY HAVE SIX FIVE SPOTS AVAILABLE.

 

We start ASAP, my first sessions are available next week, so get on it if this feels like something you need right now.

 

As you'll see when you read about it, this isn't a program that is hard or restrictive, it is actually more about easy replacements and adjustments. Also you will not need to buy a bunch of expensive supplements {I actually don't recommend supplements very often, tbh}. Most recommendations are food related and herbal which you can find easily.

 can't wait to work together!
