Welcome!

Welcome!

My journey to heal my son’s most distressing symptoms of autism has changed the way I live and care for my family. I am passionate about nontoxic products, natural remedies, grain-free nutrition, essential oils, and healing the symptoms known as autism. But, I wasn’t always that way. I had to learn from the beginning – with little time or money, without knowing how to cook AT ALL, juggling a family, a career, and everything that comes with caring for a child with special needs. If I can do it, so can you! Welcome to a cleaner, healthier, HAPPIER life! Read more about me.

Beyond Medicine: The Healing Power Of Love

Healing our children is not an easy task. Sometimes we can lose hope when our children don’t respond to treatments, when we don’t know where to put our focus, or when interventions we want to try are beyond our reach. Here is a story of hope if you are feeling lost or at the end of your rope. Our love matters!

Healing Within: Feed Your Soul

As another autism month arrives, don’t get caught up in the noise or the narrative. Helping your child isn’t just about the medical healing of autism – we also need to heal within. Remember that on the journey to heal your child, it is just as important to feed your soul.

Blue Morning, Blue Day: Blue Forever And Ever

I’ve been saying the same things about autism forever and ever, so I thought I’d focus on something different. This month I’ll be sharing the voices of nonverbal individuals who use S2C to communicate. I hope you’ll listen because everyone deserves a voice!

Without A Voice, But Shining Inside

The individuals who use S2C to communicate who have contributed to the blog this month have done an incredible job sharing what nonspeakers have to say. Thank you for shining a light on who they are inside, and for giving them a voice.

The Blessing And The Curse Of Autism Awareness

April is Autism Awareness Month, but for families affected by autism this is kind of a joke. Because we are aware of autism every second of every day, all year long. And it feels like the world lights in up blue in April and gets all lovey dovey for our kids and then...
