Meet Dr. Heather
Dr. Heather is a naturopathic doctor, blogger, medicine maker, teacher, student, believer, creator, sister, daughter, and friend. Oh, and did we mention .. a HUGE essential oil lover?! She grew up in scenic northwest New Jersey, and feels fortunate to call both the northeast and the southwest “home.” Dr. Heather knew from a young age that she wanted to pursue medicine. She majored in biochemistry and molecular genetics, minored in public health as well as environmental studies and sustainability, and went through all the pre-med steps to attend conventional medical school; however, when the time came to apply, it didn’t feel right. After a couple “gap” years and a synchronous encounter on a ski lift during which she learned from a stranger about Bastyr University and naturopathic medicine, she knew this was exactly what she’d been looking for ~ so she packed up, drove cross country, and completed four years of extreme growth, unparalleled community, and what felt like a “dream-come-true” at Bastyr University California.
​
Dr. Heather considers herself a lover of learning and a continual seeker of truth. She is currently continuing her studies of natural healing as she pursues her Doctorate of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine at the Pacific College of Health and Science. She is also building up her own practice, Evergreen Naturopathic. She continues to be grateful every day for finding what she deeply believes to be her passion and calling, and for the honor and privilege it is to have received the training she has and to use it to help people reach their highest states of health and human potential. When she’s not coming up with treatment plans, mixing up natural medicines, or studying up on health and healing, she loves spending time with her family and pets, gardening and working with herbs, singing and dancing and making music, taking pictures, exploring new cultures, and soaking in sunshine, fresh air, and the beauty of nature.

Why Young Living?
When it comes to items we put on or into our bodies, quality and purity should be paramount. With YL, you never have to worry about toxic ingredients, additives, or production methods. You can feel secure using YL products for yourself and your family.
Also incredibly important to consider when shopping essential oils (or anything else) are all the steps that come before these items arriving on your doorstep. Are farming practices clean and sustainable? What are conditions like for workers? How are plant materials processed and tested? How are finished products treated in transit from producer to consumer? YL's "Seed to Seal" promise helps alleviate concerns over ethics, quality, sustainability, and purity ~ which means you can use YL products knowing that you've got a product that's not just healthy for you, but that came about in a way that was healthy for the earth and the entire community that helped bring that product to you.
Plus, YL sells not only quality essential oils and their accessories, but entire product lines of health, home, and beauty products. Did you know you can even get supplements from YL?!
​
When you join the YL community, you're joining a family. You have the option to simply enjoy wholesale prices on however frequent or infrequent your orders, or to share products that you love and values/practices you're passionate about with family, friends, and the world by helping bring others into the YL family.
