        I took a class from Dr. Jones and was impressed with his approach to herbs and natural healing. I chose to join and learn what I have wanted to learn for many years, I like his style.

        I am a mother of five, all married, and a grandmother of 14.5. They all call me for “what to do” and many times, or most, I am frustrated that I do not know enough to assist.

        I first got introduced, 32 years ago, to natural healing by a woman who was a nurse in Korea and had moved to the US. My son had burned himself very badly and the doctor told me to put neosporin on it. I new that was not the right answer and the journey began. She came into my life and treated his burn. He healed quickly, no infection, and no scar. I was hooked.

        From that moment on I have been searching and learning about herbs. I first started with Dr. Christopher formulas and have been open to others.

        I have many herbs/weeds in my yard and am glad that I have been impressed as to which ones to include.

        We raise bees which assists in herbal preparations, besides the honey being pure and wonderful and truly raw, no heat.

        A few years ago I had tinnitus in my right arm and I lost the use of it as well as being in great pain. Again, I looked for other than conventional options. I found a Chinese acupuncturist in SLC and went to see her. I healed completely. No drugs, no surgery. Great to be healthy and have full use of my arm.

        I like being peculiar and seeing things others don’t.

        I look forward to the continued journey of learning from other like minded people.

          Did you mean tendonitis in your arm?

              Tendonitis is no fun. Tinnitis (ringing in the ears) is also no fun. My wife had a bad case in her elbow years ago that we had to manage.

              Acupuncturists can do some neat things. I have a brother that’s a neurosurgeon that started using acupuncture on some of his patients instead of back surgery. It cost him a lot of money. LOL

              We have a local acupuncturist that’s quite good. Learning and using more acupuncture is one of the things on my bucket list.

              Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
