Our Mission

​Chronically Beautiful exists for the purpose of raising awareness for Chronic Lyme disease, infusing love into the lives of those who are suffering on any level, discovering beauty wherever it may be found, and ultimately reaching to God to find hope for healing!

"We can do hard things!"

Three years ago I was diagnosed with Chronic Lyme Disease.  After insubordinate amounts of pain and suffering, today I stand to share a worldwide message that healing is possible!  Throughout my journey, with the help of my determined and supportive parents, and a  loving God that guided my healing journey, I learned that my body is capable of healing itself, by itself.   Now I stand and share my story with you in hopes to bring hope for healing to those who feel like all is lost.  There is hope and happiness ahead.

Chronically Delicious

My love and passion for food, and my quest to only consume the most nutrient dense food I can find is manifested through this blog!   I love baking, cooking, and eating all kinds of the most nutritious and delicious food!  This blog will feature all of my favorite tried and proven recipes, and all recipes published will be original and made with the most fresh and organic ingredients.  The special element in my food is that because refined processed sugar feeds cancer, bacteria, and toxins in the body, all of my recipes are made completely refined sugar free!  All food photographs featured on this blog will come directly from my kitchen and will be made with love!

Why I Refuse to be Silent About My Personal Battles with Pain and Suffering

For this particular post, I want to articulate to my dear readers why I'm so very vocal about illness and tragedies, and why I feel such a deep desire to share my story, even if at times it may sound terribly personal, or be overwhelming to listen to or read.  Cultivating hope is more important than protecting pride.

A Glimpse into Anxiety Disorder

I've suffered from Lyme disease all my life, and one of the very critical symptoms of such a disease is severe anxiety.  This is my personal account of what it feels like to suffer from severe anxiety caused by the physical bacteria in my body.  Anxiety disorder is not always necessarily just a disorder all by itself, rather it is often times a symptom of greater imbalances in the body.  This has been my case for years, and I've finally decided to open up about it and raise awareness for the inward torture that so many people seem to struggle with.

Chocolate Chip Cookies!

I have just been beside myself lately!  I've spent years wanting chocolate chip cookies again, but there's always been the small dilemma: Refined-sugar free chocolate chips with zero harmful additives don't exist!  So for this recipe I got creative and used the chocolate recipe that I've posted prior to this post.  You simply remove the pre-made chocolates from the fridge, chop them into medium sized chunks, and throw them in the batter the same way you you would regular chocolate chips!  Easy!  And much healthier! 

Claire's Famous Chocolates!

There is one thing that I LOVE that was incredibly difficult for me to give up when I went on a diet to manage my Lyme disease, and that one thing is chocolate!  I wouldn't call myself a "chocoholic" anymore, but I am still a lover of chocolate and the good news is that these chocolates are paleo, vegan, and refined sugar-free friendly!  They're packed with healthy fats and they always satisfy your sweet tooth!  

Orange Cream Cake!

This week was my mother's birthday, and so I needed a good birthday cake recipe!  So, the orange cream cake was born!  My mom has been a Lyme warrior practically her entire life, and we have fought the Lyme battle side by side for many years now.  My mother is a beautiful and incredible woman, and so I wanted a cake that was just as beautiful and amazing as her!  This cake is easy to make, refined sugar free, and made with whole wheat flour!  It just the perfect taste of orange and is absolutely beautiful and perfect for any special occasion!
