"Why do you want to feel better?"
This is the question I asked myself as I helplessly watched my parents slide into the devastation of avoidable degenerative illnesses.
My state of health was precarious too. I was sick, exhausted, very emotionally stressed with anxiety, had moderately severe CFS/ME symptoms, was teetering in and out of hopeless depression, had fleeting suicidal thoughts, debilitating chronic pain that sometimes made me bed-bound, was 50 pounds overweight and could barely sleep.
I had been through 3 decades of massive stress and trauma prior to this, with financial instability, and lots of emotional abuse and bullying from partners, ministry group, family, social groups, and more. I had been eating poorly, using sugar, alcohol intermittently, coffee and processed foods to try to self medicate the anxiety and depression. Life sucked.
For 2 years leading up to this point, I watched my parents health decline greatly. Following my father's passing from avoidable renal and pulmonary failure and my mother's rapid decline into very difficult dementia I saw the writing on the wall-get my own health together or I was going to end up burdening my kids and wasting the potential that God gave me to make a difference in this world. Knowing there was no way I was going to voluntarily let that happen I took responsibility for my health and focused on mind-body healing for myself.
As God does, once I committed to turning around my health and well being, He led me to powerful techniques and provided the resources for me to take professional training and learn nutrition information that would naturally transform my health and emotional trauma, and allow me to share those methods with others.
I learned how repressing feelings of deep grief, anger and fear were making my brain create intense pain in my body, and how to uncover, feel and express those feelings in healthy ways, which gave me relief and started turning around my painful symptoms.
I learned how the decades of extreme stress I lived with had greatly depleted the nutrients in my body which was allowing chronic inflammation and other problems to take over.
I also learned how living in a fight or flight state continually made the lymphatic drainage of my body flow backward, especially in my brain, which was the biggest cause of the pain and fatigue I was experiencing.
I also learned how the lack of regular soluble fiber in my diet was making my liver reabsorb the toxins and stress hormones it was trying to excrete out through my digestive tract, and that combined with burdened lymphatic drainage from stress, was causing toxic buildup in my whole body, making me feel exhausted and hold onto excess weight.
I could also see that all of the trauma's I'd experienced made my faith waver at times, and I didn't feel as connected to God as my healer and provider as I wanted to, thinking I had to do it all by myself, which for sure made me feel more stressed.
As God brought the new healing techniques and nutrition information into my life, He showed me how to create an effective body, mind and spirit approach to healing that started to make a huge difference for me, and allowed me to learn how to share those with others. This became the the Better Brain Body Balance Biblically approach.

More on Theresa
Fun stuff I've done:
I LOVE spending time in nature. It's like oxygen to me. But especially fun things have been traveling to Northern Michigan on a regular basis, continually learning in the healing and transformation field, and most of all spending time with my amazing adult children, Jessie and soon-to-be son-in-love Jordan, Ian and my daughter-in-love Lizzie :)
Stuff I love:
Health and wellness!! All of it! Someone once said to me, "You need a hobby" I answered "My work IS my hobby!" I also love interior decorating, gardening, feeding the birds and wildlife in my garden, rebounding with a mini trampoline, kettlebell exercise, cooking delicious whole food, plant based meals, and especially spending time in fellowship studying the Word of God and praising and worshipping Him!
Still Yet to Do:
Want to expand my healing and coaching to the UK, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, Ireland! Buy 100 acres and cultivate a permaculture system, have an animal rescue and equine therapy program and retreat center on location. I'm praying!
Worst Job Ever:
One super hot summer working the salad bar at Big Boy restaurant. I was a teenager and having to get up really early in the morning to do that wasn't fun! Another difficult job was working as a medical assistant in one of the dermatology practices I've worked in over the years, the woman training me was incorrigible and really abusive until I learned enough to not be directly under her. We ended up being friends and I owe that to God who taught me through this how to persevere through abuse and pray for difficult people. There can be stresses in every job, I think, for most people.
Favorite Accomplishments:
Having my children at home, raising them holistically in spite of continual naysaying, persevering through a lot of trauma and lack of support to continue to grow and develop with my healing work, putting God first even if sometimes that took a minute! I would say my tenacity. That I'm still here and still growing and the best is yet to come is a testament to God's faithfulness. Wouldn't be here with out Him-Glory! :)
Favorite Aspirations:
To see a million people become healed, delivered, saved by the Cross of Jesus Christ, experiencing health sovereignty and prospering in their Kingdom identity and God's mandate on their lives!
Favorite Teachers:
The Holy Spirit and God's Word, #1! I had an art teacher in high school who encouraged me, just that little bit of water for the thirsty plant I was helped me. My godmother spent some time with me in my early adolescence, made me feel like I had some value as a person. I've had some amazing manual therapy teachers and trauma recovery coaches! I'm so grateful to so many wonderful teachers I've had.
My Guiding Philosophy:
When we live aligned with Truth (capital T) life works. Truth is not actually a thing, it's a person.
"I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me." John 14:6
"Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:31-32
Easy? Nope. Until it is. "For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." Hebrews 4:12.
We can't go wrong by trusting God, "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning." James 1:7.
Truth leads to integrity and when something is integral it thrives. This is the law of life that the God who created all established. All we have to do is align ourselves with His Truth and His Will and we will be blessed and prosper!
What an amazing, graceful, merciful, powerful God we have! He even HELPS us honor Him if we ask! What an amazingly loving Father. Try Him! Hallelujah!
My Motto:
"Seek first the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." Matthew 6:33
