A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND INFO

In 2005, when I first learned about the NEWSTART health message, I purposed in my heart to follow a whole foods, plant-based diet and to honour God in all aspects of my life. This decision brought about many amazing changes, including radiant skin, gentle weight loss, boundless energy, sharper focus, clearer thinking, and a peace that passes all understanding. Health is truly one of life's greatest blessings brought about by obedience to simple principles given to us by our Creator.

MY PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is simple...living a plant strong, healthy lifestyle that follows Biblical principles, emphasizing the prevention of disease.

"Disease is an effort of nature to free the system from conditions that result from a violation of the laws of health. In case of sickness, the cause should be ascertained. Unhealthful conditions should be changed, wrong habits corrected. Then nature is to be assisted in her effort to expel impurities and to re-establish right conditions in the system." Ministry of Healing, pg. 127.

Our bodies were created to be self-regulating and self-healing...to be pain free, strong, active and vibrant. The way that we live our lives, including what we eat, will determine how vibrant and healthy we will be. What we get out of our bodies is directly proportionate to what we put into our bodies.

I take a unique, wholistic approach to supporting the whole person - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually - using a whole foods and plant-based diet to cleanse the body of toxins and rebuild it, by providing what it needs to create pure and clean blood and to repair any digestive or gut issues. This method allows food to be our medicine in a gentle, yet powerful way.

In addition, I can guide you in establishing simple and healthy lifestyle principles to help you restore your body's natural healing power and experience God's love through abundant health.

Health is a choice. When you choose the path of real health and wellness, you will be blessed.

WHY "NOT BY BREAD ALONE"?

I believe that God created us to have abundant health. He provides us with all that we need to prosper physically and spiritually. In order to have perfect health, we need to supply our bodies with not only healthy physical food, but also spiritual food. We cannot exist or subsist without the blessing of God...therefore we cannot live by bread alone.

"And Jesus answered him, saying, 'It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.'" LUKE 4:4
