Hi, I’m Lara Austin.
Hello! I am a Certified Christian Health Practitioner, a wife to a chiropractor and a homeschool mother of 4 children (ages toddler to teenager).
Lara’s approach to health and wellness is rooted in biblical truth and holistic care—body, mind, and soul. Lara combines science-backed strategies with faith-based principles, using prayer, scripture, diet, lifestyle changes, and targeted, personalized supplementation to bring lasting hope and healing.
Lara started Narrow Path Family Wellness to so she can help “Grow healthy families God’s way” while reminding them that God made our bodies wonderfully and fearfully made in His image. He also made every one of us unique and different. We also need to recognize we are not perfect, and we live in a fallen world. Our goal is not achieving perfection or striving for what cultural trends point us to. Rather we should live in a way that will serve our bodies well (which the Holt Spirit dwells) in order to best to live out God’s call for us, and to serve and give glory to Him.
When we live our lives dependent on the Lord as well as recognizing the amazing healing power that comes only from God and his good gifts this is where transformative restorative healing of the body, mind and soul can happen.
My Story
Ever since becoming a mom, I have had passion for cultivating healthy living for myself, my family, and encouraging and sharing my passion with others. The former kindergarten teacher in me loves helping and encouraging others.
God has used some trying times in my life to bring awareness in more natural and holistic ways. I was very sick and had a compromised immune system as a child due to an adverse reaction from vaccines. Through this sick and hard season in my life God has used it for my good and His glory. As a young mom it made me cling to Him for wisdom and seek more natural ways to nurture our family’s health. While I am not against modern or western medicine, I try and be preventative as possible and cultivate a strong and healthy body, mind and soul in as many natural ways as possible through diet, lifestyle and supplements as needed.
Fast forward to a year ago, God brought our family though a very hard and trying time. We found out we were living in toxic mold. We had several “zero tolerance” molds from our ERMI home mold test. Everyone in our family was experiencing signs of mold illness and some CIRS symptoms as well. Thankfully I saw God at work in countless ways , and I was able to use my knowledge gained from The School of Christian Health and Nutrition to help our family detox and heal. We used prayer, diet, lifestyle and supplements to help our body detox from the mycotoxins and heal.
So through my personal and professional experiences I have the wonderful honor and privilege to help other families walk through whatever path God has brought into their lives.
