Welcome!
Guérison in French means “self-healing”. It’s not only a beautiful sounding word, but it captures the integrative healing approach. Through our journey toward health and healing we discovered the deep importance of embracing a holistic approach. Our integrative doctors helped us care for our physical and mental wellness with natural foods and supplements. This approach supports body and soul in the best possible way. It hearkens us back to a time when nature in its purest form provided the answers to the distress that can descend upon us. Illness is a body out of balance. Our bodies were designed to heal themselves.
This recipe is based on research about whole foods and healing by Sally Fallon and Mary G. Enig, Phd. We prepare our ingredients in small batches using low heat. The central ingredient, beef tallow, is enhanced with glycerin, coconut oil, and a small amount of beeswax to provide a protective barrier. Our unique approach offers a mild yet effective formula suitable for use anywhere from eyelids to foot soles. Also noteworthy, our integrative doctor recommended we try beef tallow to soothe and heal our family’s eczema. We found that, beyond its healing properties, it is also a healthy alternative for those without skin issues and we enjoy making it.
