| Introduction | Hello, My name is Karen McSpadden and I am first and always a mother to three amazing adult children who live in various parts of the country at present. Almost a year ago, on November 8th, my entire family, aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins, dogs, cats, bears, lost our home town in the devastating Camp Fire. We are all slowly rebuilding our lives but have been completely thrown in many different directions and some of us have even lost track of each other. Prior to the fire, I met an herbalist in Alaska and she inspired me to go into the field of Complementary Alternative Medicine and because of prior education I found myself with only a year to finish my degree. It has been the greatest thing I have had in my life over the past year, as far as a healing and finding myself again in connection to myself in mind, body and spirit and believe me after a traumatic event it has been my umbilical cord to staying healthy. So, for this blog, I am going to incorporate those things, foods, practices, relationships, and all of the support I had to quickly put in place to stay well. |
