Tracy Wakefield Southwick and Heather M. Goodwin
Tracy Wakefield Southwick, MBSR-MP, ND, HHP, CNA, AMP, has been studying and working for nearly 3 decades in the natural health field. She originally set out to be an aerospace engineer, but, as life happens, ended up on a different path. After receiving a diagnosis for an “incurable,” life-altering illness, she was told that she would never live a full and healthy life. Despite her doctor’s prognosis, she was totally healed from the condition with the help of natural therapies. Thus, her passion to learn and share all she could about how the body works and its amazing ability to self-heal when given the proper tools was ignited and she never looked back. After her health turned around in the ‘90s, Tracy opened a natural health store in Fredericksburg, Texas, hosted a popular radio show and served as the Staff Naturopath at Integrative Medical Clinic. During this time, she received her doctorate in Naturopathy from Trinity College of Natural Health and, to this day, continues to consistently further her education by attending seminars and workshops. She also speaks regularly on podcasts, at conferences and in other events, educating professionals about how to enhance their practices. After selling her business in The Texas Hill Country, Tracy returned to her hometown of Houston and, in 2007, opened Heights of Health when her practice had become too busy to handle alone. Currently, Heights of Health has 6 excellent holistic practitioners on staff and continues to be Houston’s premier Naturopathic clinic, supporting the health and well-being of Houstonians and virtual clients in the US and abroad. Additionally, in 2020, Tracy opened Mind Body Spirit Release® Academy, a fully accredited school to train and certify practitioners in her proprietary techniques (The MBSR Method™ and The Holistic Wellness Approach™). To date, she and her staff have trained hundreds of practitioners from around the world. Her passion is to continue contributing to the shift into a new holistic paradigm for health, educating and inspiring her clients and students to take back ownership of their health, from a mind, body and spirit perspective.
