I lived on Lake Shore Drive for years.
The lake was always there — steady, regulating, quietly reminding me how much the body responds to environment.
Some days, simply walking alongside the water changed everything. Other times, I would just grab a blanket and a book and sit along the lake under a tree.
When you live with histamine sensitivity and a nervous system that’s easily overstimulated, you learn quickly that where you are matters just as much as what you do. Noise, pace, pressure, constant decision-making — they all add up, even when nothing looks “wrong” on the surface.
This weekend reflects the kind of support I once needed myself.
Not a retreat. Not a program. Just intentional space — in a setting that supports calm — with someone who understands how deeply the nervous system shapes how we feel.
“I began working with Teresa to understand why my gut symptoms felt so unpredictable. Through our conversations, she helped me identify what was missing and offered practical, balanced ways to support my body. Teresa truly listens. Her thoughtful guidance and steady support helped me feel more grounded and confident in my next steps.”
— Chrissy
“Teresa’s honest and authentic approach made me feel in control of creating a sustainable wellness plan. I never felt pushed — only supported. I would highly recommend her to anyone who feels stuck or overwhelmed in their health journey.”
— Sarah M
“From our very first session, Teresa created a safe space for reflection and growth. Her holistic approach helped me feel supported as I worked through habits, confidence, and priorities — without pressure.”
