Andrea is a whole-istic health, wellness, and "beyond" enthusiast. She has always found herself intrigued by the human body, mind, spirit, and life in general, which has led her to learn more about all facets of this experience and do some deep dives on what felt most resonant to her in those moments. Andrea's mother, and fellow practitioner, began teaching her about natural health back in the late 90's or early 2000's; however, she innately knew, or was guided, to stay away from most pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter medications, or the like since as far back as she can remember because any time that she would take them, there would be some kind of bizarre reaction. She knew that the body was capable of healing itself and working through what it needed to work through in order to get to the "other side" of said turbulence or unpleasant experience, and she always knew that it went deeper than the appearances or the physical laws that appear to govern our world.

​

It was in the fall of 2003 that Andrea experienced a medical decision that steered her life experience in a different direction. She received a TB skin test for an internship that she was doing in school and upon leaving the clinic, she passed out, hitting her head on a metal door frame, where she was then told that this head injury required a tetanus booster in order to "keep her safe." It was after this booster that her health began to deteriorate, but she didn't quite put the puzzle pieces together until after her son was born in 2007. In order to make a long story short, he was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and a whole host of other medical issues for the first 6 years or so of his life. As a new parent, Andrea followed the recommendations from his pediatrician in order to "keep him safe too." His 12 month vaccinations ended up creating quite a reaction, which the doctors still to this day deny that vaccines had anything to do with it, yet alternative physicians that they have seen say otherwise. Either way, it was another learning experience for her to follow her own resonance and quit listening to what these so-called "experts" think that we should be doing with our bodies in order to keep us safe, healthy, and well. She has found quite the opposite to be true in her experience.

 

In 2010, with all of their diagnoses in tow, Andrea headed out on a research adventure in order to see what could assist them with feeling and functioning better. They spent a lot of money over the years on supplements, diets, and other treatment methods, which worked to a certain extent, but it wasn't the silver bullet that they were looking for so their search continued on. In 2014, Andrea had her youngest son and her health did a nose dive even more. It was around this time that she was introduced to energy work, which opened up a whole new world for her. Energy work and healing then led to meditation, which led to consciousness and ascension, which then led to a whole host of other modalities, which ultimately, led her to the concept of non-duality, where she realized that all is perfect, whole, and well no matter what, even when or if it appears not to be. This is where the idea came from for creating a whole-istic approach to life and wellness...seeing the wholeness and perfection that innately is beyond all of the illusion(s), and this powerful perception switch naturally allows a shift in the physical realm because then we aren't being controlled, or governed, by feelings of self-doubt and unworthiness.

 

Andrea now sees that every experience was necessary because it allowed her to see and be more aware of things and to trust the flow of life, going with the feelings, resonance, and/or guidance in those moments...and she refers to this as moving with how one is moved. In essence, she began tuning out the noise of "the world" (those belief systems, programs, and conditions that we were taught) and instead, goes with how she is moved in that moment, no matter what it looks like or how it appears to the world. It isn't for anyone else to decide what looks whole, perfect, and well...especially since that image or portrayal is simply the illusion itself.

Andrea also has many other certifications in individual coursework and programs and is pursuing more on a continual basis, as she is moved to do. Her passion involves assisting those with special needs, like autism, ADHD/ADD, sensory processing disorder, developmental delay, speech delay, auditory processing disorder, etc., as well as those with chronic disorders or dis-ease, like cancer, ALS, MS, lupus, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, PTSD, Parkinson's, and the like.
