Thank you for considering Intrinsic Health Source as a resource for your wellness journey. I'm excited about our potential partnership!
Throughout my career as nurse and health educator, I take pride in being a caring, dedicated and passionate advocate for my clients. Some of my greatest experiences have been exploring enhanced wellness methodologies. I have learned that embracing a "whole body health" approach that nurtures the body, mind, spirit and emotions is the only way to truly transform and restructure our lives. In graduate school, I was reminded that Florence Nightingale was not only the founding mother of nursing, but also the first holistic nurse! She focused on healing the whole person not just the specific disease or illness. When Holistic Nursing was officially recognized in 2006 by the American Nurses Association, I found my voice in holistic nursing.
Yet it was a personal health crisis not a professional endeavor that propelled me towards holistic nursing. I was diagnosed with Guillian Barre Syndrome (GBS) leading to a surprising transformational experience! For in trying to deal with my intense pain and recovery, GBS not only became the catalyst of a new journey towards wellness, but also my greatest teacher!
Inspired by this transformational experience and passion to be a healer, I formed Intrinsic Health Source. My joy and passion is to offer clients an opportunity to embark on their own life transforming experience. I feel a unique connection with my clients that stems from my personal journey towards wellness. My story may sound familar.I struggle to maintain a healthy body weight, find a work-life balance, reduce stress and restore harmony in my life. It's easy to fall into bad habits, especially when you feel "defeated", "uninspired", "overwhelmed" and "over-stressed". These challenges although shared by many are unqiuely different for everyone! Using my professional and personal experiences, I work with clients to understand the "root" of their challenges.To define and reach their personal wellness goals, I wish to inspire, motivate and empower clients to develop sustainable healthy lifestyle habits and take charge of their life.
I launched Intrinsic Health Source with the goal to communicate and work together with individuals, families, and healthcare practitioners to implement wellness strategies that integrate holistic healing therapies with conventional healthcare practices. I hope to encourage clients to design an integrative healthcare team to manage and support their personal health and wellness needs. My vision is to collaborate with a circle of health care experts, helping people embark on their own transormational expeirence and live the life they imagine!
Jeannine currently collaborates with Vincent's Medical Center and Griffin Hosptial in Connecticut to volunteer services to patients and corporate clients. In addition, she volunteers her time to provide health lectures and services to support the Adult Programs at the Edith Wheeler Memorial Library in Monroe Connecticut.
