Morning has Broken
On Nov. 26, 2008 Janaia Hutzal’s entire life tragically changed. When morning broke her daughter, Marina Jane McQuaig only eight-years-old, did not survive the night. At the time Hutzal was going through a divorce, she had not worked outside the home in almost a decade, the stock market was crashing, and she had two other children to raise and care for in a city she had yet to call home.
All of this left her asking, “Who am I and how am I going to survive?”
The hardest part of this story came with the realization that the death of her daughter was not the hardest part. Hutzal's trauma began when her daughter was first diagnosed with a terrifying, progressive and uncontrolled seizure disorder at two-months-old, and continued on. The trauma of helplessly watching a child suffer affects every part of a family, as a whole, and each individual.
Over fifteen years of studying the importance of all seven aspects of wellness and how they work together as an ecosystem, has taught Janaia that knowing and honouring one’s true essence is the first step to finding the answer to “who," and through this she also discovered tools to “how."
Whatever mountain is before you, remaining in alignment of mind, body and soul by tending to each aspect of wellness, is the "how" that will help you reach your destination – and know exactly "who" you are when you get there.
