Terry Hirning
Terri Hirning is a married mother of two living in beautiful Flagstaff Arizona. She considers herself a somewhat reluctant hippy. After spending her whole life living “mainstream” and quite “Yuppie-fied”, the birth of her son in 2003 would soon change all of that. After receiving a diagnosis of Autism and knowing this was not a genetic cause, she set out to learn as much as she could to recover him with the help of some amazing physicians, health practitioners and other parents. He is now a happy, healthy, recovered child who loves Star Wars, basketball and terrorizing his little sister! Along the way their family had a 180 degree turnabout in their lifestyle, priorities and the way they raise their family. Terri is an advocated of wholesome living and avid gardener, and after leaving the ‘hustle and bustle’ of city life they now live on country acreage with their 3 goats, 40 + chickens, 2 cats and one dog. Terri’s family is gluten, dairy, soy and predominantly refined sugar free as well. She is happiest in her kitchen experimenting on her latest recipe creation. She mentors other parents of special needs children and writes about natural health, dietary interventions, supplements, reducing toxicity in the family environment, raising livestock, organic farming, being self-sustainable, encouraging stress reduction through meditation (including meditation for children) and most of all, passing on the hope of Autism recovery to anyone who wants to hear it.
