There is a strong connection between the mind and body. I seek to dedicate my life to research and content that can help others and myself further understand this connection while discovering optimum resources that aid in reaching ultimate mind-body wellness. Enduring fibromyalgia symptoms throughout my life, I have encountered persistent muscle and nerve pain, fatigue, cognitive deficiency, along with anxiety and depression. I believe God has equipped and directed me to be a voice in promoting healing and wellness using my own experiences as inspiration and empirical scientific research as guidance.
