About Dr. Michelle Clay and FREEALITEA
Embracing a Holistic Journey of Wellness
Greetings and welcome to the heart and soul of FREEALITEA!
Our story begins with a remarkable individual who embarked on a transformative journey from practicing clinical medicine to becoming a beacon of holistic health and empowerment.
The Dream Realized
"I did it! I realized my childhood dream to become a Physician!" - Dr. Michelle Clay
Dr. Michelle Clay, affectionately known as "Dr. Michelle," achieved her lifelong dream by graduating from Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine. Her journey into the world of medicine nurtured a perspective deeply rooted in her upbringing, where understanding the core of an issue was paramount.
A Shift in Perspective
"Health is determined by physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness." - Dr. Michelle Clay
In the world of clinical medicine, Dr. Michelle began to feel a disconnect. The patients appeared to be caught in a revolving door of treatments, while she sensed that something more profound was missing. Health, to her, was a holistic concept, encompassing physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. The conventional approach was not in alignment with her beliefs.
A Spiritual Conflict
"My spirit was conflicted." - Dr. Michelle Clay
This spiritual conflict led her to temporarily step away from clinical medicine, searching for her true purpose in the realm of healing. It was during this time that she encountered the incredible power of herbs, a journey sparked by her own experience with uterine fibroids. Driven by her success in using natural methods to address her health concerns, she realized she could help others who sought a more natural path to wellness.
Embracing Natural Medicine
"Health is not just your physical health, but also your mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being." - Dr. Michelle Clay
With a newfound passion for holistic well-being, Dr. Michelle enrolled in the Academy of Natural Health Sciences to become a Certified Holistic Health Counselor and Clinical Nutritionist. She understood that true health encompassed not just the physical body but also mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects. Chronic stress, she believed, had a profound impact on all these areas, and natural medicine was her chosen path to address them.
FREEALITEA: A Journey of Healing and Nourishment
"In 2021, my father was diagnosed with laryngeal (throat) cancer." - Dr. Michelle Clay
Dr. Michelle's journey took an even more personal turn when her father was diagnosed with throat cancer. In a moment of unwavering dedication and love, she put her life on hold, leaving New Orleans to be with him in Indianapolis. For four challenging months, she accompanied him to every treatment and appointment, striving to provide him with the best nourishment possible during his battle with cancer. Because he was unable to eat by mouth, a feeding tube was placed in his stomach. She juiced, prepared herbal tonics with FREEALITEA, and made ALL of the nutrition with whole foods for his feeding tube. Once again, she saw first-hand the power of herbs and plant-technology to heal and restore.
Finding Solace in FREEALITEA
"To get through those 4 months, FREEALITEA was my daily ritual." - Dr. Michelle Clay
During this trying period, FREEALITEA became Dr. Michelle's daily ritual, her source of solace and strength. While her father fought bravely, she found moments of peace and respite in sipping her tea, each cup infused with the power of alchemy. Today, she gives thanks that her father is cancer-free, knowing that the journey was worth every sacrifice.
