I AM HealingStrong

Holle is a HealingStrong friend and currently a therapeutic instructor. Holle was integral in helping shape the structure of HealingStrong, which in part, helps in guiding group leaders with policies, procedures and processes. She came into therapeutic movement through the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® in 2005 with an injury. Beginning a GYROTONIC® apprenticeship at Body-n-Balance in Alpharetta, Georgia, she began to teach while rehabilitating her shoulder.⁣ She is certified as a Gyrokinesis instructor and a Pre-Trainer authorized to teach students beginning on their own path to instructorship. ⁣ Holle attended her first therapeutic course with Paul Horvath and Uwe Herbstreit in 2007, and the direction of her work refined towards holistic, comprehensive resolution of bio-mechanical pain patterns. In working with people struggling through chronic pain, she recognized a frequent connection to situations of stress and backgrounds of trauma. Combining the beauty of art and nature, the kinship of supportive people, and the empowerment of movement, she started facilitating retreats for women to restore hope and foster healing.⁣ To more fully help people bridge the divide between movement potential and current restrictions, Holle gained her licensed massage therapist designation in 2020, and shortly after began personal mentorship under 5 time Olympic team massage therapist Benny Vaughn.

Gayle is a new HealingStrong Group Leader for Kentucky and a breast cancer thriver! In July of 2019, she was blindsided with an invasive ductal carcinoma diagnosis. She had known for years that if she was to ever be diagnosed with cancer, she would not do the conventional chemotherapy, radiation, surgery. She had heard about alternative treatments when her mom was going through a cancer journey in 2015, so after her own diagnosis, she decided to spend time in prayer and get direction from the Lord, so the first week after my diagnosis that is what she did. No research, just time in God’s Word and in prayer while spending time with her family on vacation. She rewatched a cancer series, where she heard about Chris Wark, and from Chris Wark, heard about HealingStrong. She got on the HealingStrong website and searched for a group and knew this was an organization that she would be connected with for years. What Gayle loves about HealingStrong is the community and the individual relationships. It’s a place where you know you can trust being heard and understood without criticism. Gayle says, “We all have a different journey to walk through, and the goal is to get all the information we can and seek God for the direction we need for our individual healing.” 🥳ALL ARE WELCOME: 10 Year Anniversary Celebration Conference September 29th & 30th, 2023 The MET Church *Details at the link below: https://healingstrong.org/conference *If you’d like to DONATE to the Conference: Text the word ‘HEAL’ to 707070 Support HealingStrong and become a part of our Membership Program.

In October of 2013, Betty received a diagnosis of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Her diagnosis was Watch and Wait or Stage 0, so the doctor was not threatening me with treatments. Her doctor did say, he expected Betty to need treatment in 8 years - in 2021. Betty took that as a challenge to prove him wrong! In 2021 and still today, her numbers are the same as they were upon diagnosis. God had been leading Betty to watch things like Forks over Knives, Dr. Fuhrman’s Eat to Live on PBS and Super Juice Me a year before her diagnosis. She had been experimenting with vegan meals and in May 2013 had stopped eating sugar based on what she had been learning. When she received her diagnosis, she knew that she had to change her diet, which she states gave her peace and comfort, in having this control over her situation and in fact, helped her better handle her diagnosis. She then studied everything she could get her hands on. Betty was a HealingStrong group leader in Albuquerque starting in 2018 until she moved to Colorado in 2021. She co-led a group in Colorado Springs that she is now, the full-time group leader of. 🥳10 Year Anniversary Celebration Conference: September 29th & 30th, 2023 The MET Church *Details at the link below: https://healingstrong.org/conference *If you’d like to DONATE to the Conference: Text the word ‘HEAL’ to 707070 Support HealingStrong and become a part of our Membership Program.

Nancianne was brought up in a poverty-stricken home, riddled with substance abuse, never knowing Christ. After 18 years of substance abuse, divorce, and reckless living, she found herself in jail, where she got near a Bible. God met Nancianne on her knees in that jail cell and her life has never been the same! He took her addictions and gave her a new Spirit. A Spirit of life, truth and the longing to obey God's Word. Unbelievable transformation has occurred in Nancianne since the day God took her addictions and welcomed her into His beautiful family. God has reconciled her marriage, put children in the barren woman's house, restored relationships with family, healed her from crippling anxiety and dyslexia, and given her overwhelming peace and joy. How great is our God! God has placed a call on Nancianne's heart to be an advocate for people in jail and struggling with addiction. She strives to lead by example through healthy eating, exercise, education, and most importantly maintaining a close relationship with God.

Mya is a homeschooling mom of two young girls, health advocate, HealingStrong group leader and team member. She was never diagnosed with cancer, but through her mom’s stage 3 breast cancer diagnosis, the Lord led her into the natural world. Upon her mom’s diagnosis, Mya was living in another state, married, working as a special education teacher, with a preschooler, living the “go with the flow” mentality, eating the Standard American Diet (SAD), overworked, exhausted, feeling less than healthy, but with no diagnosis of her own. This led her to believe the way she was feeling was “just” her. But God used her mom’s diagnosis to shift her thought life, eating habits, and more importantly, her relationship with Him. Now she shares her story and experiences with others to encourage practical change, serves others through leading an online HealingStrong group and is a part of the staff, while continuing to implement baby steps within her own family. 🥳10 Year Anniversary Celebration Conference: September 29th & 30th, 2023 The MET Church *If you’d like to DONATE to the Conference: Text the word ‘HEAL’ to 707070 *To stay up to date on the conference details, click below: https://healingstrong.org/conference Support HealingStrong and become a part of our Membership Program.

As a busy wife and homeschool mom of two, Paige Lathrop, was blindsided by a stage 3 colon cancer diagnosis 4-½ years ago. Rushed into conventional treatment, Paige lacked peace in her spirit and believed there had to be another way to heal. While undergoing chemotherapy, she spent countless hours reading scientific literature and praying for direction. The Lord graciously led her to Chris Wark, SQ1, and HealingStrong, which gave her the confidence to walk away from the treatments and make a complete overhaul of her life (body, soul, and spirit). Seeing this trial as a great blessing, Paige became passionate about sharing the hope she has in Christ and the incredible healing powers that God has created all around us with others. Paige believes one of the keys to thriving is finding a supportive community, which is one reason she became a HealingStrong member and group leader three years ago. Links: 1.
