About Stephanie


​I have a big awesome family...
but I'm not going to talk about them today....
because that could take a LONG time!
​
Let me tell you how I started on the path of natural health...

​The paradigm shift began in 2008, after my father received a cancer diagnosis. He started exploring some alternative protocols and that's when I started researching too. It didn't take long before we both felt overwhelmed and confused. There was just so much out there - who did we trust? I also felt a little angry that there was so much information that seemed censored!

So who was right? what information did we trust? We really weren't sure...

Probably because I love to learn (enneagram #5) I jumped into a new training program and became a Traditional Naturopath and Master Herbalist. What I learned more of...was just how amazing God created us! It made me press in and continue to learn and grow.

But there were still some hangups...

I lived a life in church where the emphasis was on the health of my spirit, not my body. Not one mention was ever made of the health of my body. In fact, I was even chastised for some of my new beliefs. The impression the church gave was that the physical body meant nothing and it didn't matter if you abused it. But as I read the Bible through a new mindset, I realized that God was not silent at all on our health.

The book “What the Bible Says About Healthy Living” opened my eyes. God truly was not silent on all this. The more I read my Bible, the more I realized that I should have started there to begin with!

​But then a new frustration popped up–the reaction from other Christians. It seems living a natural, healthy lifestyle is looked at as extreme, weird, and crazy by other Christians. It upsets me that the truth in the area of our physical temple is not talked about from the pulpit. All the while, I sit in gatherings and listen to prayer request after prayer request for physical healing.

And so the burden began…

Jesus said these words as he commissioned his 12 apostles:
Matthew 10:7-8 And as you go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand, Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
The command involves freedom in spirit, soul and body!

I believe Jesus came to restore ALL of us, spirit, soul and body!
