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.

I have a deep love for food, goats, and wholesome laughter.  I seek to find beauty in the world around me, and I seek to continuously find joy and then share that joy with those around me, despite how difficult my outer circumstances may be.  I hope that as I share my story and knowledge with you, I can bring hope for healing and hope for a brighter future ahead!

Chronically Beautiful

Chronically Beautiful is my outlet, my story, and my source of hope for healing as I fight and heal from my chronic Lyme battle.  There are thousands of people throughout the world who suffer from this debilitating disease on a daily basis.  Chronically Beautiful is my cry for help and hope through love, spiritual support, beauty, inspiration, and more.  We all need support and love through difficult times and my plea is that we Lyme warriors stick together in the fight for healing.  I hope to inspire everyone around me through my writing and give you a belief that we all have a reason to fight.  My message to you is that there is always light at the end of the tunnel, no matter what you're going through.  And there is always beauty to be seen, even through the darkest of times.

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!

I'm Claire Dalton, and This is My Lyme Life

I wanted to take some time to share my story.  I realize that I have my ABOUT page that gives a general idea of Lyme life, but I wanted to take a post and write about where I've been, where I'm at, and what I did to get some of my quality of life back.  You have all heard bits and pieces of my story with each post, but this post is from the beginning to now and I feel like it's really important to share our stories in order to spread awareness and give hope for healing.

"Other people are going to find healing in your wounds.  Your greatest life messages and your most effective ministry will come our of your deepest hurts."
- Rick Warren 

Hearts Were Never Meant to Bleed This Much

Perhaps hearts were meant to bleed this much.  Perhaps bodies where meant to break down.  Perhaps tears were meant to be shed.  Not because we live in a cruel universe... but because God has a Divine Design that can transform blood into healing, breaking in wholeness, and tears of grief into tears of rejoicing.  May we all learn that lesson in hopes that we can grown in strength and everlasting joy. 

When It's Challenging to be Thankful

 I'm not going to pretend to be the expert on gratitude.  I'm not.  But I invite you to take time to write five things you're thankful for everyday.  IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE.  I never knew I had so many things to smile about until I took a little time everyday to be thankful.  Even if you can only find gratitude for the chair that you are sitting in, it is more than some people have.  So take time to feel and express gratitude.  It may not take your pain, but it will transform your pain into something beautiful.

Raspberry Cream Muffins!

I often find the kitchen as my refuge in times where my mental health feels like it's close to crumbling.  I suffer from serious winter depression that I haven't figured out how to avoid yet, and so I found myself in the kitchen tonight in attempts to cope with the elephant weighing on my heart.  Baking clears my head and brings me great joy!  Especially when I'm focused on healthy conversion of unhealthy recipes.  A delicious healthy recipe requires concentration, thus giving me something to think about other than my anxieties and heartaches.  Yay for food being the answer to remedy mental health!

Apple Berry Crisp!

Cobblers and crisps are my ALL TIME FAVORITE dessert!  Mainly because they're so easy to make and so easy to convert to be refined sugar-free.  The apple-berry combo is an old family tradition of mine that my mom has been making for years so it often reminds me of my childhood.  This crisp is perfect for these long winter nights when you just need some comfort food!  You can also use whatever kind of berry you'd like, and it goes a long way so you can serve it at family parties and social gatherings this holiday season! 

Cranberry Sauce!

Refined sugar-free cranberries!!  Yum!!  This recipe is probably one of the easiest things you'll make on Thanksgiving, and even though they are refined sugar-free they still contain the traditional sweet flavor of cranberry sauce!

Let's Stop Making Health so Taboo

For the year of 2019, Chronically Beautiful is giving away a fleece blanket every other week through Instagram and Facebook giveaways to those who are in need of some extra love!  Love and care are basic human needs that we so often forget to give freely to others.  As a chronic illness warrior, I've become acutely aware of the emptiness that is often accompanied with life's adversities.  This project is to remind everyone that YOU ARE NOT ALONE.  YOU ARE CARED FOR. And YOU ARE LOVED! The goal is to send love to others all over the U.S.!  Click on the button below to find out how you can enter to win a handmade, Chronically Beautiful fleece blanket!
