The Healing Journey

Upon reaching my personal rock bottom, I was ill with a sore throat that stayed around for years, I had adrenal fatigue, my hair had been falling out, and I had panic attacks that would leave me gasping for air on the floor.

I wasn’t sure how I had gotten there.

My healing journey and my spiritual awakening coincided with my becoming a mother. Suddenly, I had no friends, a good deal of my family had passed away suddenly, my brothers became addicted to heroin, and I found myself without a community in which to raise my son. Soon after, my marriage fell apart and I had no one to turn to.

I knew that my health would continue to deteriorate unless I took action. I began to learn about herbal remedies and was willing to try anything, because the pharmaceuticals I was taking were leaving me feeling drained and zombie-like. I took an apprenticeship at a local apothecary and discovered some plants that worked for me.

I got therapy, volunteered, cleaned up my diet and started to exercise. I was getting stronger! I was still on the search for answers and looking for ways to be productive again after just existing for so long.

There’s a time in all our lives that knocks us flat on our backs.
