Researching and writing about a topic you can relate to and are invested in makes all the difference. Many writers who cover natural health topics may be working from the outside in. I’m not.

My engagement with this world began about 25 years ago when I became disillusioned with mainstream medicine. Doctors saw each part of my body as distinct and unrelated, couldn’t think outside the diagnostic box, and didn’t always understand what they were prescribing. I moved to a holistic practitioner, and when he challenged my thinking about cholesterol and pointed me to the research, I read it and realized that we were being lied to on many levels. That began a journey of learning that has reshaped much of my life and eventually my writing.

The natural medicine paradigm is about healing from within, focused on the whole person and root causes, not just symptoms or numbers on a diagnostic scale. I bring that conviction and grounding to every aspect of my work in natural and complementary medicine.

The bulk of my writing for the past 15 years has been in this area. Read a selection of that work here.
