STOP siblings from sharing the ickies with each other.

It happens every time.

One kid comes down with it, and you already know it's going to make it's way through the family, one by one.

But does it have to?

I'm gonna go ahead and say no.

One, cause facts.

And two, cause I've been able to stop that from happening in my family of six plenty of times!

Great news, right!?

But how?

Here's what I do when someone's got the ickies to prevent sharing.

1. Sharing isn't caring.

Don't let siblings share things! It seems to go without saying, but when you live together it's hard to even realize where we are being exposed. The ick-carrying kiddo gets their own bathroom, their own chair/couch, and preferably their own room until all better.

2. Treat everyone the same.

It took me a few years of natural living to figure this one out! The minute I realize one child needs immune system support, I give it to them...plus I give it to everyone else, too. The sooner I can boost them, the less time they will be down with "it" too.

3. Skip screens and sleep

I'm sure you already know the negative effects of "too much screen." The blue light tricks the brain into thinking it shouldn't sleep, and sleep is what a body needs to fight illness! Important immune system work is done during sleep. This tip stops spreading by speeding up recovery. The sooner the ick is gone, the better!

If you need entertainment, help them use their ears while resting their eyes!

Listen to music

Listen to a kid's podcast

Audiobooks

Let them take a detox bath

4. Purify the air

Separating the sick one helps a ton, but even so, sharing the air spreads ick, and there are other benefits to purifying air too, like making breathing pleasant, scenting the room safely and repelling bugs. We use Young Living Purification blend in the diffuser of every room of the house when someone is sick. It has Lemongrass in it, which is a powerful anti-ick plant that I use in my homemade Hand & Surface Purifier. The atmosphere it creates can't be beat-nor can the benefits!

Do these look like things you can do when one of your kids comes down with something?

Welcome to Living Well Holistics!

I'm Janelle, and I'm here to help guide you into the wellness you've been wanting!

As an educator and researcher in wellness, certified nutrition coach, biofeedback practitioner and holistic consultant, I'm able to curate the information and tools you truly need - nothing more and nothing less.

For over 12 years, I've been educating and helping families find wellness, beginning in my own family and extending into my community and many states across the US.

Living in the information age, where countless articles and ideas are available at our fingertips, wellness has begun to feel overwhelming.

But it doesn't have to be.

My methods are simple and guesswork-free.

In my own home, we've reversed eczema, heart disease, tics, asthma/allergies, adrenal fatigue, and dealt with all of the regular acute things that arise in a home.

I've spent over a decade researching, testing, and learning.

I'm here to bring you the curation of my 12 years of active experience.

I want everyone who works with me to walk away with actionable things they can easily do to get to where they want to go.

I've been able to do that for hundreds of families, but these ways aren't for everyone. They're ancient and modern at the same time; chat with me to see if we are the right fit for what you want.

Let's get to your wellness goals, simply.

This may be the answer you've been looking for.

Uncover your body's unique blueprint for health!

Get instant insights into your body, including information on your gut health, immune system, organs, glands, and more! Uncover root causes and solutions. Walk away knowing exactly what your body wants, and how to give it just that!

SCHEDULE YOUR SESSION

If your body could talk, what would it say?

"Thank you for today! Everything you said made perfect sense....I can't wait to start feeling like myself again."

"I was definitely open to discover how to help my body, but I didn't understand how impactful it would be for me...Little things that are actually big.

So, thank you."

"Hi Janelle, I'm doing a lot better! I've been [doing my protocol] and on my last period I didn't get any bad cramps!

It was the first time I didn't need to take any painkillers!"

Let's get you feeling your best with a wellness session!

Your body innately knows what it wants, and a wellness session is a painless, non-invasive method to uncover root causes and test, not guess, what your body is saying.

During a wellness session, we will conduct simple scanning and testing services that measure your body's automatic responses, using methods such as bioenergetics and applied kinesiology.

Then we will create a custom program that is specific to you.

You'll walk away empowered and moving forward.

Balance Wellness Scanning

Take a look inside your body.

The Zyto Balance Scan uses FDA-approved GSR technology and is a Class II Medical Device. The scan identifies up to 186+ stressors (e.g., bacteria, viruses, parasites, toxins) affecting your health.

By analyzing impulses from a hand cradle, it generates a 15+ page report with insights into your body’s balance.

Scanning is easy, painless, and provides valuable data for review.

Muscle Response Testing

Find out what your body is saying.

Muscle Response Testing is a non-invasive technique to identify stressors like nutritional deficiencies, toxins, or emotional imbalances.

By observing your body’s response to stimuli, I use various wellness techniques to pinpoint needs, test wellness items, and create a personalized plan.

This holistic approach helps you achieve optimal wellness tailored to your unique needs.

A Holistic Approach

Create a personal protocol + get coaching.

There are many good nutritional supplements and endless healthy foods, but you don’t need them all. During a session, I'll help you choose the things that are right for you.

We will create a custom program based on your goals.

Choosing the right supplements and foods means your investment is more likely to pay off, providing you the benefits you need and saving money on things you don’t need.

If needed and desired, we will follow up with functional labs, additional therapies or coaching sessions.

One session can make your health choices simple.

What is a wellness session like?

Each session, we will complete assessments that are customized to your goals, including Muscle Testing/ Nutrition Response Testing (using gentle touch and testing vials) and Biofeedback Scanning (using a hand cradle).

These assessments uncover root causes in your body!

Based on your results and goals, we will then create a custom program that's as unique as you.

If needed and desired, we can incorporate functional labs and additional services, including Nutrition Coaching.

How long are appointments?

In office appointments are 30-45 minutes per person. Home visits are 60-90 minutes per person.

Can you tell me more about the testing?

The first thing we do is a basic assessment, where we will discuss your current health and uncover current issues and goals.
Then, you will complete a Balance Scan, which uses FDA approved GSR technology and is a Class II Medical Device. To complete, you simply place your hand on the hand cradle / scanner for 5-10 minutes as the program scans your body. It's painless and comfortable. The scan identifies 186+ stressors in the body (Bacteria, Viruses, Parasites, Fungi & Molds, Heavy Metals, Chemicals, Endocrine Disruptors, Water Contaminants, etc. that affect your health and produces a 10+ page report showing valuable insights.
Next, I will interpret your scan results and begin Muscle Testing.
Muscle Testing, sometimes referred to as "nutrition response," "applied kinesiology," "morphogenic field" or "quantum" testing, is a term used to describe the way the body automatically responds to various stimuli. It's easy, gentle and painless. This testing is done by the practitioner acting as the "scanner" so to speak, contacting points of the body with muscles and assessing for response.
Once the scanning and testing is complete, you will know your body's exact coherence (or, preference) for different substances, including but not limited to: Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs, Foods + Wellness Practices. No guesswork!
After your session, you'll be sent any relevant information discussed, personalized resources and next steps. You'll walk away knowing exactly what your body needs and what to do!
If desired, we will plan future work such as emotional release, nutrition coaching, and even functional labs.

I hope to serve you soon!
