My journey onto the Holistic Path began around 1990, when my daughter was a toddler. Her health and Well-Being was my main focus, yet it seemed that her pediatrician’s only answer to health concerns, was the use of drugs. I felt uneasy at the thought of my precious and pure baby being pumped with man-made chemicals for the most common and mild conditions such as colds, teething, earaches and such.

Growing up in nature as I did, I felt a strong connection to Mother Earth and her endless bounty. My siblings and I were very active outdoors, ate an abundance of fruit, and rarely were ill. I don’t recall any of us having to take medicines, and I suppose that good health was just a natural way of being, and a major influence in the years to come.

So when it came to raising my daughter, I naturally shied away from pharmaceuticals and the influence to depend on them. Prevention always seemed the best option in my opinion, didn’t carry any side effects, and didn’t change the body’s natural chemistry (as was the case with pharma). Being a child of the 60-70’s, I was exposed to Native-American Indians, ‘hippies’ living organically, and my grandmother’s natural remedies; all of which gave me access to traditional approaches and a sense of empowerment in my own life and health. So with this underlying awareness I began researching the bookstores for natural remedies. This was long before I owned a personal computer, and there were no ‘healthy living’ stores such as Harmony Farms, Whole Foods, Earth Faire, etc. My research generally consisted of taking my daughter to Barnes & Noble or the library for a few hours each weekend, where I would peruse the Health and Self-Help sections while she contently colored or played. This became our traditional outing over the years, and one we occasionally still enjoy to this day (she’s an adult now with her own child).

I still have the first Health Handbook I ever purchased, and reference it (20 years later!) whenever a natural remedy is needed for myself, family, or clients. Natural Remedies are timeless and so much more effective than pharmaceuticals. What afterall, is pharma founded on but natures herbs? Pharma’s origination WAS herbs and their ability to heal, along with the intent to maximize shelf life and create mass quantities. However, the effectiveness of pharma has consistently decreased over the decades as natural herbs are used less in formulas and synthetics increased. As synthetic use increases however, the body’s natural PH level lowers, creating an acidic environment that actually breeds free radicals and inhibits cell regeneration. The body has no choice but to deteriorate further, becoming the perfect host to additional dis-Ease.

In life, there is always Cause & Effect (as with the pharma example), and it is my personal and professional belief that all forms of dis-Ease within the human body can be balanced by addressing the root Cause, not the Effect (as does allopathy). Traditional medicine (herbals) and Energy Medicine have the ability to address the Cause without the side Effects that pharma produces, and there are many qualified, experienced, and dedicated professionals across the world who understand this. Our hearts are committed to our clients’ needs and not influenced by pharma’s monetary influence in the health field.

My study of Energy Medicine began the fall of 2004, when I experienced a modality known as EMF (ElectroMagnetic Field) Balancing Technique. I was so amazed at the results of a 20-minute session, that I immediately enrolled in the full course, as it was so powerful – I knew this was my true path in life! Upon completing the Advanced Course in EMF Balancing Technique, I went on to train in Reiki Level 2, Raindrop Therapy, Past Life Regressions, Ionic Footbaths, AromaTherapy, Ear Coning, Kinesiology, and Crystals. Combining these modalities with my knowledge of Herbals, Nutrition, and Intuitive ability, my Holistic practice was born.

My passion for Natural Health and Well-Being led me to being an organizer of several Meetups and co-organizing with multiple other wonderful professionals in the Raleigh area. Many events were created that introduced techniques and traditional wisdom to the public, and culminated with a special 6-month health series known as EASE. I also traveled over several years to Charlotte, NC and Los Angeles, CA, educating and providing private energetic realignments with great success!

It is my dream to open a Cooperative Wellness Center that will be home to the many incredible professionals I’ve met over the years, and redefines the healthcare system as we know it. Until then, I continue with my practice wherever the Universe guides me to be.

I sincerely appreciate your interest in The Harmonious Path. There are specifics about each modality I offer in the Pages to come if you seek further information, and I am always available via phone or email if you wish to speak with me. You are also invited to join me for tea and a personal introduction and conversation.
