Although I had been an athlete all my life, growing up I had often experienced health problems such as chronic sinus problems, low energy, constant headaches, bad PMS, mood swings and regular break-outs. I just accepted feeling this way as normal and coming from a family of Western medical doctors I was given with good intentions, antibiotics and other medications to remedy the symptoms.
The medicine was unsuccessful in reaching the root of the problem and the uncomfortable symptoms persisted into adulthood. I continued to believe that the Western scientific view of health knew what could heal me, but I slowly realized this just wasn’t the case.
My life completely changed in so many positive ways once I began my own journey of healing with whole, natural foods. I soon discovered that certain specific foods in my diet were actually the cause of my chronic health problems. As I began experimenting with eating whole, fresh foods which I enjoyed, I naturally craved less of the harmful foods. I also improved basic habits such as drinking more water, resting more and prioritizing time for myself. Slowly but surely, my body began to heal itself without the aid of medication. I was amazed at how simple it was. My energy increased tremendously, and the symptoms I had become accustomed to my whole life eventually just disappeared.
In addition, the clarity I experienced from eating healthier foods helped me address the other aspects in my life that weren’t working. I knew in addition to toxic foods, toxic situations were negatively affecting my health, like my stressful job and unsupportive relationships. I knew these had to be remedied if I wanted to experience true physical and emotional health. Once I addressed all these aspects of my life in combination with the food part, everything came into balance.
As a result of my personal experience, I became passionate about empowering others who are also seeking relief from their health problems and looking to find more energy and better balance in their lives. That’s when Energizing Nutrition was born. I love being in a profession which is meaningful to me and am grateful to share my knowledge and experience with you!
