Justine started her adventure into the world of healing nineteen years ago. After trying and exploring many different methods and techniques, her life radically changed. Some of the issues she had been struggling with were -chronic stomach pain, nausea, IBS, ulcers, and other digestive issues -ovarian cysts -body convulsions -debilitating costochondritis (inflammation in the cartilage where your ribs join your sternum) -chronic panic attacks -heavy cigarette smoking -relationships with romantic partners that involved domestic abuse -massive blowouts of road rage -intense self-hatred and depressive episodes -unable to hold a steady job, feeling lost in life, constantly overwhelmed, afraid of everything, and chronically exhausted “Western medicine has it’s place in the world. There are times and circumstances where things like surgery are the right choice. And I’m deeply grateful for everything Doctors and surgeons do to help us every day. That being said, many of us are chronically suffering from a very broken system. I was no exception. My doctor visits provided temporary relief at best. Even with my surgery to remove an ovarian cyst that had become a tumor the size of a mandarin, it’s very likely that I never would have gotten to the point of needing surgery in the first place if I had known then what I know now. Feeling more and more desperate, I started exploring what else was out there in the world when it comes to healing with whatever money I had. ​And there is A LOT! So much that I had never even heard of before. I started trying different things, from more common and scientifically supported healing methods like physical therapy, breathwork, yoga, nutrition, years of behavioral therapy, and nervous system regulation therapy to more "woowoo" and lesser-known things like energy medicine, sensory deprivation tanks, craniosacral therapy, altered states of consciousness, hypnotherapy, vision quests with no food or water for days alone in a remote canyon... and a lot more in between. Nineteen years of being a guinea pig (and still trying new things), the world of healing has become my greatest passion. From different methods to learning how to spot the snake oil, it’s completely changed my life. And hopefully, I can share something with you that can help you in some way or accompany you through your healing adventure too. May you discover your own inner lighthouse of empowerment, healing, and profound love.” -Justine
