ABOUTÂ
Amy Owen, PhD Environmental Geography, MS Systems Biology, BS, Biology/Chemistry minor
CFNC (Certified Functional Nutrition Counselor)
I've worked in the field as an environmental scientist for Indian Tribes in the Upper Penninsula of Michigan and in northern Idaho. I served as a professor of Geography in the US and on the island of Guam in the Asia Pacific for 11 years.
​
I learned holistic healing firsthand from my own experiences with severe burn trauma, cancer, endocrine tumors and hormonal imbalance, allergies and food sensitivities, resistant weight gain, addiction and sugar issues, brain/mental emotional issues. While I appreciated help from mainstream allopathic medicine for diagnoses and treatments when needed, I learned that connecting with the Earth, my community and my own healing nature fed the roots of my life. My mission is promoting a culture of food and living that connects and feeds us individually as well as our planetary home and environments beyond.
My passion is the transformation of challenge into healing expansion of life into new, creative areas - honoring our connection to the sun, Earth and stars from which life came - in living, building, eating and growing food in ways that respect and improve life. My logo is a sun spiral drawn with grey and black magic markers following a pivotal healing journey to the Australian outback.
