🌿 About Me: The Heart Behind Nourished Roots Apothecary
Hey kindred souls... I’m Cristal, a cardiac ICU nurse turned Ancestral Nutritionist and holistic practitioner — and the founder of Nourished Roots Apothecary and the Nourished Roots Association, a 508(c)(1)(A) faith-based ministry devoted to true healing of the heart, body, mind, and spirit. After years in the medical system, watching people get sicker instead of stronger, I knew there had to be another way. I started searching for the root causes of dis-ease — not just the symptoms — and what I found brought me home to my Appalachian roots and the wisdom of our ancestors. Now I guide others back to vitality through ancestral nutrition, herbal medicine, and spiritual restoration — teaching that our bodies are designed to heal when given the right environment. My work blends science with soul... minerals and herbs with prayer and purpose... grounding in the earth while rising in spirit. Here inside this community, you’ll find: 🌿 Ancestral nutrition education (real food... real healing) 💧 Mineral and hydration guidance (Soul Water anyone?) 🌸 Herbal protocols for vitality and heart healing 🔥 Spiritual and energetic practices to support transformation 💬 Real conversation and support from like-minded souls walking the same path If you’ve ever felt like the modern “healthcare” system forgot what health actually means... you’re in the right place. I created this space for those ready to unlearn, reclaim, and restore — to return to their roots, and remember who they are. ✨ Welcome to Nourished Roots. This isn’t just education... it’s a remembrance. If you haven’t yet — introduce yourself below and share what brought you here. I’d love to meet you and learn what you’re seeking on your healing journey.
