Who am I?
Hi there! My name is Melissa, and I am on a journey to live my life in a more natural, authentic, healthy way. I have been on this journey for almost 10 years now and taking different steps along the way, and I am here to be your guide and ally as you take your own journey.
A few of the steps I've taken include food from scratch, plant medicine, supplements, clean water, detoxifying my home, stress/anxiety management, minimalism, and many more.
I believe that each person needs to take their own path, so I am not here to try to get you to follow in my footsteps. I have, however, learned some things along the way, and if I can help you lessen the learning curve, it would truly be my honor! 


Just a few facts about me:
- I'm a South Dakotan originally from Minnesota.
- I am a Christian, and my faith shapes many of my beliefs about health.
- My family includes my farmer-turned-paramedic/firefighter husband and our two furbabies, Hobo - orange tabby cat, and Zorra - hyper Doxie/Corgi.
- I love being creative, riding horses and 4-wheelers, almost anything outdoors in the spring/summer/fall (not winter!), and playing strategy games.
- My life's passion is helping others to discover and enjoy the same benefits I've found from making some adjustments in my life.
- I am a fierce advocate for medical freedom, and I will defend your right to make informed decisions about your own health.

If you'd like to join me in the journey to true health, please check out my Facebook group: Life - Abundantly. I look forward to meeting you there!

Meet Melissa Denelsbeck

 

For years, I was trapped in a fog, never feeling 100%, always tired but too stressed out to get a good night’s sleep, struggling through headaches 3-4 times each week. Almost every afternoon at work, I would hit that mid-afternoon slump and be unable to keep my eyes open. Often, my headaches would start around this same time and last through the rest of the day. All I wanted to do was go home and sleep, but when I went to bed, my thoughts would race, and I wouldn’t be able to fall asleep.

I felt like I was stuck in a never-ending cycle of fatigue – tired all day and wide awake at night, and the headaches just made it all more difficult to deal with. I pushed on as well as I could through the sleepiness and the pain, but I never felt like I was functioning at full capacity.

Then, I started making some changes in my life and becoming aware of what I was putting in and on my body. Over time, I realized that my headaches were becoming less frequent, and my sleep quality, energy, and mental clarity were improving.

Now, a couple years later, I feel my energy levels remain steady from the time I wake up until I go to bed. I am able to quiet my anxious thoughts and fall asleep quickly at night. And the headaches? They’re so infrequent that I can’t even say how often they come – maybe 3-5 a year?

It wasn’t even that difficult a change to make. I just swapped out products in my life that were contributing to my bad health, and I replaced them with versions that enhance my wellness instead.

It’s a step-by-step process that you can take at your own pace, and I am here to be your guide on the journey and empower you to take back your own health!
