Like many in natural healthcare, I started down this path out of personal need. Conventional medicine had no answers for me… in fact it was making things worse. I began the search for real solutions on my own, about three decades ago. Scientific research emerging at that time showed that the mind, emotions and body function as an integrated whole. I was intrigued: those modern findings corresponded perfectly with ancient knowledge, such as that preserved in traditional and indigenous medical systems.

I certified as a holistic nutritional therapist. From somewhere I acquired a book called The Science of Homeopathy by George Vithoulkas and dived into homeopathic theory (and have never emerged from it!). Over the years I studied at several homeopathic colleges to expand my understanding and practice.

I stayed up nights studying physiology; I took an excellent Western Herbal Medicine program, learned the fundamentals of TCM theory, then pursued Gemmotherapy (a specific kind of herbal medicine, widely used in Europe). I completed practitioner training in Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). All of these modalities took on even more meaning and usefulness when I began to explore more deeply the world of mitochondrial research and the effects of light, the electrical aspect of our biology, and the emerging science of the fourth phase of water.

At the heart of all these years of study has been deep contemplation about what health, sickness, and medicine really are. I’ve come to believe deeply that the intelligent integration of medicines is now essential: there isn’t just one reason that human health has declined so steeply, and there isn’t one simple solution. I continue my education and most importantly I learn from every person who shares their story with me.

I’m also an author. I actually knew even as a small child that I needed to be a writer. It wasn’t until much later I contemplated publishing. My book Homeopathy Rising: A Deep Introduction to Earth’s Fastest Growing Medicine will be available in October of 2025. A second, much evolved edition of Little Earths will be along in 2026, and two other books are underway.

I am currently creating an online course about holistic and complementary self-care for cancer. It’s for anyone who has cancer, and for their families and friends. It’s for people who wish to increase the effectiveness of their medical treatments and ease the difficult side effects. It’s for people who wish to avoid developing cancer, or avoid recurrence. It is a more comprehensive look at this unfortunately common condition, and our options in response to it, than I have found anywhere else. I am very excited to share it with everyone.
