“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style” Maya Angelou
I was born in Poland, but have spent the last 25 years living in the UK as a naturalised Brit.
I had a keen interest in herbs and nutrition since I was a teenager. My great-grandfather was a self-taught herbalist, working with the healing knowledge gathered and recorded for one of the Polish queens by her court medics a few centuries ago in a form of a manuscript, which he chanced upon in his youth and which soon became the basis for his own herbalist practice.
My great-grandfather’s legacy inspired me to experiment with various dietary strategies and herbal recipes for increasing good health and vitality from quite a young age. I had a lot of joint pain as a young child and it was even suspected that I might have juvenile arthritis, which made me really determined to find natural ways of improving my health.
