My Health Journey - Embracing Herbs for Natural Healing
My Health Journey
Hello, everyone! My name is Karen Burchell, and I am thrilled to share my story and passion for health advocacy with you. As someone who has dedicated their life to nursing and community health, my journey has been one of discovery, change, and a relentless pursuit of better health for myself and others.
From Nursing to Natural Health
My career in nursing began in 1975 when I started my training, graduating in 1978. I spent a year working in a hospital before traveling to Europe, returning to study midwifery, and then practicing as a midwife for 12 years. Eventually, I shifted my focus to community nursing, where I spent the majority of my career. By 2016, I felt the need for a change and decided to start my own private nursing business. It was a daunting transition, requiring me to build a new network and adapt to different challenges.
A Pivotal Encounter
During this time, a friend introduced me to some herbal products that would change my life. As I learned more about it, I became fascinated with how certain herbs could help reduce inflammation and support overall health. This discovery was a revelation, especially given my background in nursing where I had witnessed the debilitating effects of chronic diseases.
The Science of Aging and Inflammation
One key realization was understanding how free radicals damage our cells and contribute to aging and various health conditions. Despite having a good diet, the body can still produce chronic inflammation, leading to tiredness, wrinkles, and a host of other issues. The decline in glutathione, a crucial antioxidant, as we age, only exacerbates these problems.
Personal Transformation
Facing my own health challenges, including joint issues, pre-diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol, I decided to try some of these herbal products myself. The results were remarkable: my conditions improved, I felt better, slept better, and experienced a renewed energy that propelled me to continue my career with vigor.
Becoming a Health Advocate
Inspired by these personal benefits, my goal became spreading the word about these incredible natural products, helping others combat the effects of aging and chronic conditions naturally. My role as a health advocate began.
My Vision
My vision is to reach as many people as possible, both locally and globally, educating them on how to enhance their health through natural methods. I believe in the power of herbs and the body's ability to repair itself, and I am dedicated to promoting products that support this process.
Cheers to Good Health
In my upcoming blogs, I will delve into the details of some of the herbs that I have used and explain how they work to improve health. Together, we can embrace a brighter future filled with vitality and wellness.
Here's to good health and a brighter future!
