“Namaste' family, the teacher teaches that which she needs to learn”
Wholistic healing,wellness and natural living has been a life long journey and passion for me. As a teenager, I made a commitment to a vegetarian lifestyle and natural alternative living. Twenty years later, I am a vegan and raw foodist committed to the healing of my body and the nurturance of my mind and spirit, rearing healthy children with the same values and sharing my strength, hope and experience with others so that they too may heal and experience wholeness. I am a lay practitioner of herbs, supplements, aromatherapy and wholistic health. I believe that we are own own healers and can use creation to balance and restore ourselves. Life and experience are my teachers. I have been a gardener of 9 years where I grow herbs and food for my families' wellness. I am committed to the sustainability of our earth, and use organic and natural products for my home and family. Personally, I live by what I call Sacred Wellness Practices; prayer, meditation, EAT to LIVE, journaling, inspirational and spiritual study, exercise and movement, career, creativity, conscious love parenting, conscious connections are some of my daily practices that make up my wholistic lifestyle. Wholistic living has been a ritual of daily practices that addresses my whole being. Personally, it has been a process of being conscious of my spirit, my body, my thoughts, my environment, and my actions and how they affect others, the universe and my outer experiences. My journey of healing and wellness as taught me several truths;We are divine spiritual beings having a human experience, and as a spirit, we are connected to an all powerful source. We have the ability to tap into that source because it is within us. So Reclaim Your Original True Self a powerful, perfect creation of The Most High Creator. Your highest self, one of love, peace ,creativity. Purpose, joy, prosperity and vitality awaits to be discovered. Come on lets take the journey together!
Thank you in advance for your presence and support. Ase' & One Love – Iyata
