The healing behind My Healing Kit
Before this was a brand, it was my own way back to myself
In my early twenties, I was diagnosed with three chronic autoimmune conditions. I found myself searching beyond the answers I had been given - returning to nature, ancestral wisdom and a deeper connection to my body’s own knowing. That journey became the beginning of My Healing Kit.
I was living my life when, almost overnight, everything changed.
I was in my early twenties and in the prime of my life when I was suddenly admitted to hospital with chronic pancreatitis. What followed was a relentless cycle of tests, hospital appointments and uncertainty as doctors tried to understand why, at such a young age, I was facing two serious chronic liver conditions and hypothyroidism all at once.
My body felt completely out of balance. Crushing fatigue, hormonal disruption, low immunity and depression began affecting every part of my life - from my work and creativity to my friendships and everyday routines. It was only when my health began slipping away that I truly understood how deeply it shapes everything.
I knew my body could not be understood in separate parts.
My liver, thyroid, hormones, immunity and mental wellbeing were each treated as separate concerns, yet I was experiencing them all within one connected body. Instinctively, I knew I needed a more holistic understanding- one that looked beyond individual symptoms and considered how everything worked together.
That realisation led me deeper into nutrition, herbs and the relationship between the body’s systems. The more I learned, the more I understood that true healing meant looking at the whole person- not treating each part in isolation.
And slowly, that search began leading me back to knowledge that had surrounded me all along.
I returned to my roots
My search led me back to the ancestral wisdom I had inherited - natural folk remedies and Ayurvedic practices passed down through generations. Long before I fully understood their depth, they had shaped my earliest understanding of nourishment, care and healing.
I also spent much of my childhood in Sweden, swimming in lakes, wandering through forests and feeling deeply connected to nature. Even after years away, the cell-deep replenishment I received from those forests had never truly left me.
The more I returned to my roots, the more I realised that nature was not something new I had discovered. It was something I already knew.
What we call “alternative” was never secondary. It was the source.
What I was using for myself became something I wanted to share
As I began rebuilding my health, I shared the ingredients, remedies and rituals I was learning about with my family and friends.
What started as my own return to natural healing gradually became My Healing Kit - a way to help others reconnect with nature, nourishment and their body’s own knowing.
My healing is still unfolding, but the instinct to share what supported me has never left.
Healing begins when we return to what our bodies already know.
We believe the body is one connected system. Clean nutrition, herbs and sea moss nourish us from within, while movement, rest and emotional wellbeing support the body as a whole.
True wellbeing is not built through quick fixes
but through simple, natural rituals practised consistently. MHK exists to reconnect people with their body’s own knowing through remedies rooted in ancestral wisdom and respect for the cultures they come from.
Wherever you are, begin with one simple ritual
You do not have to change everything at once. Start with one practice you can return to each day.
