I’m not super keen on painting myself into a corner with labels. Buuut for the sake of having a bio…

Eden is my name, Evergreen Wellness is my game! :)

1. I’m a serial seeker/sharer of simple & sustainable solutions. I find ways to fix or heal anything mind-/body-/soul- or relationship-related.
2. I do this as an integrative researcher, testing myriad products and practices claiming to relieve problems or pain of any kind. The only solutions that get past my extremely rigorous standards have to be (a) simple to replicate and (b) sustainable.
3. Leaning on my credentials as a whole-life nutritionist, I help people weed out the toxins and trauma “thorns” of life, and harvest peace and wellness in their place.
4. I'm also a born elemental medium: I use my unique gifts to read signs, symbols, and messages — both seen and unseen! — for awareness, guidance, and support.
5. Nowadays I'm trained as a trauma-informed shaman.
6. But for decades I walked my path as a wounded shaman. Over time I learned to forge a more “handicap-accessible” pathway to peace, for those who — like I used to — often feel like they’ve lost hope altogether.
7. In fact, this awesome path has taken me from survivor ---> thriver! I’ve learned to live in relative peace with cPTSD, despite a very long, sordid history of trauma — incl. 9 months in captivity. (Feel free to check out my publication PTSDemons. Beware: trigger warning!)
8. Due to said history, one other thing I am is a reluctant empath: Though it isn’t always the easiest thing for me to do, I share my personal stories of grief and trauma, offering my own hard-won, sometimes hilarious/shocking/surprising, and ALWAYS REAL perspective - whatever your own journey or pain may be! Understanding and connection are the hidden gems in bad things happening to good people.
9. As an author, I write for you in hopes that you might feel less alone, and more enthusiasm for life.
10. Because last but not least, I’m a fellow human soul.
11. Whether anyone else finds my discoveries or truths to be repugnant, risky, or even rebellious against the God of their understanding (being the ex-Mormon-turned-Omnist-Shaman that I am!!) at the very least, I'm leaving my legacy for my loved ones, students, my readers, and hopefully, you.

And I do it in gratitude to Source.

At the end of the day, if you still feel the need to label me, just call me a perpetual bullshit emancipator and unkillable bearer of hope.
