Holistic Made Easy wouldn't exist if our family hadn't hit our own health roadblocks in 2013. Just after finding out I was expecting our first child, my husband Andy took a severe downward spiral into multiple autoimmune diseases. In early 2015, we were both experiencing worse health, and we tested the home we were living in for mold; reports confirmed our suspicion: 6 toxic strains plus numerous others. What had already started in my husband's body had gotten much worse in this new house- the house that we had excitedly moved into as we prepared to become parents- and it made us both very sick. Desperate, we tried any and every elimination, detox, juicing diet we could find; we threw out any and all chemicals in our house; we visited all kinds of doctors from allergists to chiropractors to MD to functional medicine. After a dozen different docs, lots of bills, and lots of people telling us, "you'll always deal with this, you'll just need to take these medications," we KNEW there was a better way. We became our own advocates, partnered with an incredible functional medical doctor, followed strict autoimmune protocols, overhauled everything the mold touched in our old home, moved out, and made significant lifestyle changes so our health could be restored. Here's the happy part of our story.... we ARE seeing better health. Yes, we have maneuvered through some overwhelming waters to find holistic solutions and we're still learning new things daily. We believe we are meant to share and encourage and help others who are desperate to get their health back, their energy back, their lives back. Autoimmune conditions are rising at an alarming rate and it takes an average of 18 months and numerous doctors to diagnose these issues. Time is precious and our hope is to help others not have to go through what we went through, to gain some of that time and life back. We believe that our bodies were created to heal if we make room for them to do so. That means making better choices in diet, supplementation, activities, reducing stress and toxic load in your bodies and environment, and sometimes overhauling your entire lifestyle. This didn't happen overnight for us; it was incremental changes that have all added up, and our health isn't perfect but it's been remarkably restored. We look back with both gratefulness and amazement at how far we've come. He's almost three and is the smartest, healthiest, happiest kid we've ever seen. We know that starting him at such a young age on this healthy track sets up him for an advantage for the rest of his life. Are you looking for natural solutions for your own health journey? Not sure where to get started? We're here to help you and encourage you. We want to make holistic solutions EASY for you to find, to understand and to use. Welcome to Holistic Made Easy.
