My story.
Hi, my name is Moyne and I was once where you are now, searching for answers to heal my body. I wasn't finding it from medical doctors and I had a hard time believing drugs were the answer.
I had always been a sensitive kid and had bouts of stomach aches and bad headaches and other ailments, but after a bad car accident when I was 18, my overall health really went downhill. I saw different doctors who prescribed different treatments (drugs!) and when one told me I could have “anything from an ulcer to cancer and could need lots of tests to figure it out,” I was in tears, frustrated, and scared.
I was attending community college and working in one of the offices on campus which supported several instructors. Two of the instructors were nuns who were knowledgeable in herbs and natural health and one of my supervisors suggested I speak with them. That was my first introduction to holistic health and healing, and today I’m so thankful for that experience. One of the nuns, who was an herbalist, did some energy testing on me (which I’d never heard of before) and determined that my stomach had been injured in the accident, the drugs they gave me at the hospital aggravated it, and the drugs the current doc was giving me were exacerbating the problem by blocking nutrients from my food. She recommended I stop the prescription, and start drinking an herbal tea she would mix up for me.
Long story short(er): the tea worked for my stomach issues, the meds didn’t, and I was hooked on natural health!
That experience, however, was just the beginning of a long search for health and wellness. Over the next few years, my overall health got worse, and I struggled with fatigue, back and neck pain, headaches, terrible PMS and monthly cramps, horrible allergies, bronchitis and asthma, depression, weight issues, food addictions/binge eating, anxiety, interrupted sleep, edema, Raynaud’s Phenomena, adrenal fatigue and one severe bout of shingles with painful complications. I’m actually pretty sure I’m leaving some things out, but you get the idea. Now, thanks to my holistic approach to health and wellness, I CAN forget most of it, for which I am extremely grateful!
When my children were born, I found new challenges with each child. And let me tell you, I’m even more motivated to get answers when it comes to my kids! We have dealt with food allergies and sensitivities, avoided ear tubes, and overcome scoliosis and a myriad of different problems and scares. It’s one thing to learn how to cope with food allergies, which I’ve done, and another to completely overcome and HEAL food allergies – and I’ve done that, too.
I’m a seeker, by nature, and I ask LOTS of questions - I can’t help it. I also really love to read, and I have read HUNDREDS (my husband is sure it’s over a thousand) books on every aspect of natural health I could find.
I know how hard it can be to find answers. I know how hard it can be to separate out the snake oil salesman from the real experts and healers. I know how hard it can be when you don’t have unlimited financial resources and every dollar is precious, so it’s scary to contemplate spending it on something that just doesn’t work.
And along the way, each time I encountered a challenge, found the answer, and overcame the issue, I became involved in helping others incorporate those same resources to resolve their own challenges. Heck, after my second child was born and had serious breastfeeding difficulty resulting in significant physical injury to me, I even became an accredited Leche League Leader so I could help other moms find the solutions they needed to have a happy breastfeeding relationship with their babies. I loved it and got a lot of joy seeing other worried moms overcome challenges and have a good experience. It gave me great satisfaction and actually contributed to my own emotional healing.
Every time I have found something that worked for me, I have greatly enjoyed the process of sharing it with others going through situations similar to what I have gone through. It’s just about the most fun I can have! I love to talk about this stuff and I love to help make information accessible to others.
One of the things I’m really good at is helping people figure out the best answers for their individual situation and how to fit them into their lives. Not every concept, philosophy, diet, exercise program, or healing modality works for every single person and some people need help to figure out how to use them or how to actually make them work in their lifestyle.
My health has improved so much through implementing what I’ve learned, and I’m a busy homeschool mom! Most of the miserable symptoms I listed up there are gone and the few that are left are so reduced that I barely notice them anymore. That’s a HUGE improvement! I rarely get headaches, allergies are gone, no more asthma or monthly miseries (and I’m “peri-menopausal”), no depression, and food issues are basically a thing of the past. Hard to believe?
Ten years ago, I’d have been skeptical myself. Today, it’s my reality.
I have found real solutions for my own healing that I’ve been able to use even though I have a busy life and a family. I don’t have time to sit around all day meditating and eating leaves and tree bark. I don’t spend hours exercising or preparing complicated meals. I’ve got a HUGE practical streak and if something doesn’t fit into my life with minimal tweaking of my basic routine, it’s out the door and I’m moving on! Some things I’ve tried just flat-out didn’t work.
Some things have been downright miraculous. And others have required some tweaking to be realistic. This is what I want to share with you. I’ve chased my way down plenty of “bunny trails” through the years and am happy to help you avoid repeating my mistakes. I will share with you practical, effective, affordable ways to allow your body’s innate healing abilities to heal ITSELF, and I’ll help you weed out the snake-oil salesmen and other potential wastes of your money so that you can get the results you’re looking for.
I’ve probably already asked the questions you’re thinking of and I can explain what you need and help you find the answers you’re looking for. I’ve tried to describe each of the healing modalities I recommend in as much detail as I can, including my own experiences, so you can have all the information you need to make informed decisions. If I had to experiment and tweak something to get it to work for me or mine, I’ll share that with you, too. And if you have more questions and need more clarification, let me know, and I’ll do everything I can to help you out. At this point, if I haven’t used and benefited from a particular healing modality, I WON’T RECOMMEND IT ON THIS SITE. The only exception to this would be something I haven’t used because it applies to a challenge I’ve never experienced, but I have friends who have used it with success. (For example, I've never had a bladder infection, but I know of a terrific remedy for them!) In that case, I’ll let you know that, too.
Here’s what I know: Your body has the ability to HEAL ITSELF. The answers to help your body do that are out there and I’m going to help you find them. Just because something works for someone else doesn’t mean it will work for you. Everyone’s situation is different and no one thing is the answer, whether it’s an eating plan, supplement, exercise program or energy healing modality.
So, my goal is to help you find the right answers for YOU, YOUR BODY, YOUR LIFE.
