Critics Review
“Alayna reminds us that the human experience is explicitly linked with the environment around us, and that this experience should inspire curiosity and compassion for the fascinating biodiversity that surrounds us all.”
-Dr. Stuart Sandin, director of the Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego
“Alayna’s book is not just a story of healing from chronic Lyme; it is a wake-up call for us all to examine the beliefs and behaviors that are making us-and our planet-sick.”
-Ruby Warrington, bestselling author of Sober Curious and Women Without Kids
“With two decades of experience treating Lyme disease, I value voices that offer real hope. Alayna’s book beautifully reminds us that recovery is possible and highlights the powerful role nature can play in healing.”
-Dr. Nicola Ducharme, ND, founder of RestorMedicine and internationally recognized Lyme disease expert
“I had the privilege of walking alongside Alayna during a significant chapter of her healing journey. Throughout our work together, she engaged wholeheartedly with practices such as the Pyramid Breath Method®️ and other modalities centered on nervous system regulation, inner awareness, and the exploration of the unconscious patterns that shape our lives. Her story is a powerful reminder that healing is not always a linear medical process-it can also be an initiation. When a person brings devotion, discipline, and radical self-honesty to the path, the body and psyche can begin to reorganize in extraordinary ways.”
-Johann Urb, creator of the Pyramid Breath Method®️and Devotion Method™️
“Her words heal, her knowledge empowers, her hope inspires. Serving Alayna was an honor. Bringing people home to their true nature as a fellow ambassadress for Mother Earth is a blessing.”
-Mia Magik, bestselling author and spiritual coach
“As a member of Alayna’s healthcare team from the very start of her Lyme disease journey, I witnessed firsthand her unwavering commitment and inspiring recovery. Where Lyme so often strips away power, Alayna reclaimed and amplified hers. Leveraging her expertise as a fisheries scientist, she intuitively grasped that healing is rooted in our reconnection to nature, a wisdom she truly embodies every day.”
-Dr. Stephanie Poiani Mutiloa, ND, naturopathic doctor specializing in complex chronic illness
“More than a recovery story, this memoir explores how softening into vulnerability and healing from within can transform illness into a gateway to deeper connection with self, others, and the Earth.”
-Danielle C. Hering, LMFT, author of An Undefended Heart
