How it all began

Hi, I’m Patti — a mother, a nana, a wife, a sister, a friend, an aunt, a niece and also, a 2x cancer survivor!

As a lifelong believer in the healing power of nature. My journey with Natural Essentials began after facing one of the hardest seasons of my life.
When I was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2020, my faith and love for natural healing deepened in ways I never expected. Through surgery, recovery, and renewal, I discovered just how powerful nature’s remedies could be!

For years, I’ve studied herbalism, naturopathy, and holistic wellness — just never really implemented them in my lifestyle before that diagnosis.
When I was faced with the decision to fight it or succumb to it, I felt something deep down rise up and say “use the knowledge you have gained”! I felt reborn and have since gained even more knowledge and started putting it to use. Not only for myself, but for my family, and anyone else I can possibly help. 
I started creating and testing my own herbal concoctions. (My hubby has been the BEST Guinea pig too)! This all led to making better for you candles and soaps also.  Honestly, the list is long of the conventional products I traded in for natural handmade products.   

Bottom line……. what started as personal healing, soon turned into a mission: to share safe, natural, handcrafted products made with intention and care.

Natural Essentials is a reflection of that journey — a return to what truly matters. Each candle, soap, tincture, diffuser blend, etc……is designed to bring comfort, calm, and a little bit of nature’s goodness into your daily life.

Thank you for being a part of my journey and letting me assist you in yours.
