Lynn's Living Kitchen

My Journey As I embrace my 65th trip around the sun, I live in the charming village of Laleham, UK, with my two adorable omnivores, Merlin and Mario. As a Hippocrates Wellness (Florida) Lifestyle Medicine Coach and UK Ambassador and Raw Vegan Living Food Chef, my passion is the preparation of raw, living foods and their profound impact on mental and physical health. I teach fermentation and culturing classes, as well as how to incorporate raw living foods into everyday life, empowering others to experience their incredible benefits. I teach and consult both privately and for corporate team-building, helping individuals and organizations embrace healthier, high-vibrational living. I live by the words of Ann Wigmore, co-founder of Hippocrates Wellness: “The food you eat can be either the safest and most powerful form of medicine or the slowest form of poison" I know this firsthand. In 2005, after a difficult relationship and bereavement, I suffered a complete mental breakdown, leading to early menopause. Hospitalized for 18 months, I was given countless medications that worsened my condition, causing my weight to soar from 8st to 13.5st. Yet, the real issue—my body’s imbalance—was ignored. Abruptly taken off medication, I spiraled into a deeper crisis. A test revealed my adrenal glands had flatlined, disrupting my body's ability to heal. I took charge of my health, focusing on adrenal support, transitioning to a plant-based diet, practicing yoga and meditation, and using infrared saunas. That was my turning point. Today, I’m thriving—happier, healthier, and drug-free for 15 years. What seemed like my lowest point became my greatest gift. My lifestyle truly became my medicine.
