With one in three children impacted by Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and more than 50% battling a chronic condition, leading our families to healing can feel like an uphill battle. The statistics are terribly daunting, which is why it is more imperative than ever that we foster trusting relationships and support wholistic wellness to put a dent in the current trends.

But how? There is so much conflicting and confusing information about how to support healing from childhood adversity and it can be overwhelming to sift through the advice available today.

Thankfully, I’ve found that the answer is pretty simple.

By creating healing home environments that offer felt safety and physical wellness where our families can connect, thrive, and find joy in wellness, we can journey toward making an impact on those daunting statistics.

With the right knowledge and support, there is hope.

• Hope to promote wellness and healing by using physiological supports like wholesome nutrition, positive body movement, restorative sleep, grounding spiritual & mindfulness practices, and limiting household toxins.
• Hope to understand and overcome behavioral challenges by disarming fear responses using a culture of connection and wholistic bodily support.
• Hope to pursue self care and emotional health for everyone in the family.
• Hope to overcome the toxic stress of ACEs that can steal the happiness and fulfillment from our lives.

By meeting all of our family's physiological and emotional needs in a wholistic environment, we can support them to heal and grow and become all they can be. And at the same time, we can find peace and wellness for ourselves, too.

When we fuel our bodies properly, practice the self-care we need, and experience healing relationships that promote safety, we can all begin to thrive and fulfill our God-given purposes. There is so much freedom in this way of life!
