The Core Truth
I created Living Lotus Holistics because I needed frameworks that didn't exist—ones that honored neurodivergence as natural variation, bridged scientific and traditional knowledge, and gave me tools to understand patterns deeply enough to show up whole for my daughter.
After years of searching across disciplines—biology, neuroscience, psychology, Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, genetics, educational philosophy, and trauma-informed care—I found threads: patterns that showed up again and again, in different languages, across different traditions. Patterns that explained why one-size-fits-all approaches fail people like me, my daughter, and maybe you or someone you love.
The Discovery
I learned that many diagnoses—ADHD, autism, EDS, POTS, digestive issues, sensory processing differences—weren't separate problems randomly occurring.
They were predictable patterns of specific biopsychosocial and neuro-cognitive differences existing under chronic stress, trauma, and forced conformity to systems that couldn't accommodate certain nervous system needs.
Ancient medicine had observed these patterns for millennia. Modern science was validating them through neuroscience, genomics, and biological research. But nobody was translating between the languages. Nobody was showing families how to use this understanding practically.
So I decided to try.
The Mission
Living Lotus Holistics teaches pattern recognition skills—the ability to observe and understand innate biological differences in yourself, your children, and your learning environments.
This isn't about finding your 'type' and following a rigid protocol. It's about developing fluency in reading mind-body patterns through multiple lenses (scientific, traditional, experiential) and learning to work with your nature instead of constantly fighting it.
I bridge disciplines that mainstream thinking keeps separate—neuroscience and ancient wisdom, individual biology and collective systems, human patterns and natural rhythms. I look for threads of truth that run through multiple traditions because reality is complex enough to need multiple perspectives.
The Approach
I work from one foundational premise: understanding the whole person requires examining cognitive, biological, psychological, social, and environmental variables in cross-directional interaction across seasons, life stages, and circumstances.
What I offer isn't the truth—it's a methodology for observing patterns in yourself, finding threads across multiple knowledge systems, and developing the literacy to make choices based on your direct experience, not someone else's prescription.
This is living, evolving work—tested by real families (starting with mine) in real life. It's not finished. It's not perfect. But it's coherent, useful, and honest about its limits.
The Invitation
If you're here because nothing else has worked, because you're tired of being dismissed, because you're seeking alternatives to pathologization, and because you sense your differences are expressions of natural variation—not disorders to fix—welcome.
This is for the pattern-seekers, the bridge-builders, the parents navigating complexity, and the humans who don't fit the molds and are done trying to.
