About Us

Knowing what it’s like to feel bad, dealing with chronic pain from RSD / CRPS, drives me to help others improve
how they feel through holistic health solutions, including wellness products, programs, herbs, and essential oils.
We all deserve to live more of the life we want.” Mara

I imagine many of you may feel like I felt before I began exploring holistic health and natural options. Maybe you are feeling full of fear and somewhat angry. I know I was. Initially, when the doctor gave me my diagnosis, I felt somewhat relieved. However, that relief was short-lived. The doctor continued to share with me that even though they knew what I had, they didn’t understand why it happened or how to fix it. They could only focus on managing its symptoms. When I heard that I was going to have a neuroinflammatory, potentially autoimmune condition for the rest of my life, fear set in. Does that sound familiar?

After years of following the traditional course of treatments, I decided that if I wanted something different, I needed to change what I was doing to reduce my pain, inflammation, and fatigue. I began making changes. In 2005, I discovered wellness products and focused on healthier living habits and other holistic health solutions. I shifted my focus from treating symptoms to building my overall health. Now, I share the information I’ve learned about gut health and creating healthy habits with others and offer holistic solutions to help you feel better.

You deserve a chance to feel your best. You should be able to do the things you love: spend time with your family, go shopping or to the movies, and watch your kids or grandkids play softball. My passion drives me to help you improve how you feel because we both know what it feels like to feel bad. If my experiences and learnings from my own journey can help you feel better, I’ll be very happy.

During my journey back to health and feeling better, I developed a strong personal belief that “Each of us is somewhat responsible for our health”. You determine why you want to make changes, what changes you are willing to make, and when you will do them. By sharing the lifestyle changes I made and the products I used, as well as my knowledge in holistic health as an Aromatherapist, Herbalist, and Natural Health Professional, I can help you. All you need to do is tap into your inner power and decide to try something new. I call that participating in your health; making that decision increases the possibility of feeling better. So let’s do it – let’s tap into your inner power! Choose to make changes and get healthy!

I genuinely enjoy helping others create healthier habits and look forward to helping you feel better. Discover some of my top picks for health and wellness products that help manage pain and promote overall health. You can also join one of our wellness programs, which shares the steps I took to regain my health. Let’s work together to help you start feeling better. You do deserve to live more of the life you want!

I love animals and am pictured below with my cat, Bolt! My passion for animals is what prompted me to volunteer at our local animal shelter one afternoon per week. Working in the surgery department is very fulfilling. That department focuses on cleaning the surgical packs and the cages, and assisting the animals in getting ready for surgery and recovery. I love making sure that the dogs and cats are doing well, so they will be prepared to be loved and taken to their forever homes! My cat Bolt came from our local shelter, and I am grateful to have such a loving fur baby!

Health Freedom is also important. We are lucky to live in a country where we can choose certain holistic, natural, and allopathic treatments for our health care. The Alliance for Natural Health is one organization that can help us maintain those rightsWe don’t ever want to lose our ability to choose!
