Crystal Gordon is someone who has found her passion and purpose in life and is living it every single day! This inspiring soul spends her time whipping up new plant-based recipes and educating others on how to incorporate natural healing tools in simple and easy ways. She is known within various healing communities as someone who lives with joy, love, and spirit. Crystal came to this path in her own way; since she was young she struggled with health issues that became more amplified, as she got older. She dealt with chronic pain so bad she had to quit her job and drop out of school. She would eat food to make her “feel” better[1] but it really was just sending her body into more distress. Later she began to realize what role food played in her life, as it was the only thing she felt in control of – it was being used as a form of love and freedom for her self. Soon after this realization she met a healer that completely changed her view of food and medicine, with just one meeting! She began to really contemplate the way food was linked to her emotions and how she felt. She began researching everything from digestion, detoxification to ancient healing modalities. This lead her to deepen her sense of self and soon her health began to transform![2] Since meeting that healer, Crystal has studied and completed programs through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition[3] and at the International School of Detoxification[4] with Doctor Morse (N.D.). While she has grown mind, body and spirit through these programs she is able to share her passion with others to help heal and change their lives.

A chance encounter with a healer changed her life and step-by-step she was able to regain her health and life back.
