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.

Hi There! Nice to Meet You!

I'm Chronically Claire - Lyme disease warrior, Health Awareness Coach, woman farmer, baker, singer, writer, blogger, business woman, and so much more!  I take pride in my identity as a daughter of God, and I have a passion for helping others and infusing love into everything I do.  I also have a passion for health and wellness and I believe that as human beings, our bodies have the power to heal themselves. 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 

The Double Life I Hate Living

It's super common for people who suffer from chronic illness to feel like they have to live a double life simply because it so often seems like we're expected to live like we're healthy even though we're not.  This so often causes unnecessary pressure brought on from stigma that needs to stop.

When we seek to love others and bring light into their lives, we can feel empowered to be the beautiful people that we are destined to be.  So the next time you feel the need to be someone you're not, remember that your most effective light is born out of your Divine ability to be your best self.

I'm Not Hoping that 2019 Will Be "Easier"

 It recently occurred to me that I've been fooling myself.  I've faithfully proclaimed on social media year after year since I was diagnosed my deep hope that the next year will be easier, or that it will be better than the year before.  I've hoped, and prayed, and fought my way into society's view of a "better" and "easier" life, only to find that this "easier" life that I'm seeking for doesn't exist.  There's no such thing as "easy" in the vocabulary of a chronic illness fighter, and it turns out that the moment you think that the chronic illness battle has become "better" or "easier," something else painful and heartbreaking will come along that will try your resilience and test your nerves.  And then after you've made it through that trauma, your illness will flare again.  Due to this eternal pattern that keeps kicking me, I have finally reached the point in my life where I can say that I am no longer hoping, wishing, or praying for an easier year ahead!

Healthy Banana Bread!

I've always found it quite the struggle to keep sweet breads and cake moist when you're cooking refined sugar-free.  With that said, I finally found a banana bread recipe that is super moist, healthy, refined sugar-free, and absolutely delicious!  I love banana bread, and this recipe will be a favorite for your kids and your family!  

Hashbrown Quiche!

This quiche is made with farm fresh, organic free-range eggs.  It's also made with all organic veggies, and the hash-brown crust is made with home-grown, organic potatoes! It's also very versatile so you can pretty much throw whatever you like in it!  I think adding olives, tomatoes, and other kinds of peppers would be a great addition to this recipe!  This recipe is also topped with fresh, organic, Parmesan cheese, but if that's not an option for you cheddar cheese would work just as well! 

Banana Cream Pie!

This is me trying my hand at gluten free and dairy free delights!  The banana cream pie is super easy to make and it's no bake, gluten free, dairy free, sugar free, and organic!  I was actually super surprised at how delicious it turned out!  This is a healthy pie that you won't want to miss!

Natural Remedies for Lyme Induced Anxiety

Lyme spirochetes are spiral shaped bacteria that can drill into any part of your body and infect any organ system, including your nervous system.  When Lyme infects the nervous system this can be known as a neurological disorder that can cause many symptoms such as anxiety, depression, nerve pain, unpredictable rage, etc.  Since we're all biologically individual and different, this infection of the nerves can affect each person differently.  For me I experience intense anxiety, and although it has improved greatly since I was first diagnosed with Lyme, it is still a struggle and I have been on a long journey to find things to help remedy my pain.
