From birth I suffered from terrible eczema, modern medicine (allopathic) treatments only ever temporarily relieved my symptoms and no other options were ever suggested to my family. I also had asthma, a wide variety of allergies which persisted long into my 20’s. I had countless GP appointments over the years and several appointments with a skin specialist who in my final appointment told me we wouldn’t find a cure for eczema ‘in our lifetime’. This moment was the final straw and I was determined to find answers and never looked back.

After seeing my practitioner mentors Lisa and Jenny we discovered how poorly I had been dealing with stress for years, just how many allergies I had compared to the select few nut allergies I knew about and a variety of lifestyle choices I was making that just weren’t serving me.

After a few months of fixing allergies and using other energetic remedies my body began a ‘healing crisis’ where my skin ended up getting the worst I had ever seen it and I struggled for 6-12 months with it covering more of my body than ever before.

Despite this I stuck with it and rapidly after this peak every day my skin was more and more clear until it completely vanished for the first time in my life (about 25 years at this point).

From here I was completely convinced and inspired and soon decided this was my life’s purpose and my mission to give hope to those who had nearly given up on ever feeling healthy again.

I’ve learned a lot from my journey, for example how to reduce or completely avoid the healing crisis I experienced and small lifestyle tweaks and changes to guide people along this path.

When we had our two children they were both born with even more allergies than I had, eczema began appearing after a few weeks and then colic appeared which for us meant many hours every day of screaming and crying for our little baby. We couldn’t seem to find a reason and were told by the nurses and doctors that it was ‘the witching hour’ and some babies were just ‘hard to settle’. I couldn’t accept this, and my parental intuition told me it was something more than that.

I remember one night vividly with my first born Lydia after another hour or so of screaming (and eventually sleeping) on my lap at 1am, the only way she’d settle I started researching everything I could on the subject. I eventually found key people and strategies to help my kids (and our sanity as exhausted parents!) and never looked back.

With our second child Leo, I was far more aware and immediately jumped on digestive issues, allergies and similar colic symptoms to Lydia. Although his symptoms were different, it was a very similar process, and we resolved his issues much faster and it was far less stressful of everyone in the family.

I’m excited to share the variety of remedies and techniques I’ve learned through my own experience as well as from my mentors for all people and especially now to also reassure the parents out there that their intuition is valid and more often than not true.
