Hi, I'm Diane Mickelsen

I live in Idaho, I have been happily married for since 1991. I have 2 grown children, 3 grand puppies, 4 grand kittens, and 7 grand chickens LOL

For the last 34 years of my life husband and I have owned and operate a mom-and-pop Diner in Shelley, ID

   I take pleasure in spending time with my family, unwinding at nearby hot springs, reading, cycling, painting, dancing, camping, hiking, kayaking, immersing myself in nature, sleeping, and watching TV for fun. As an advocate of health and wellness, I have dedicated 15 years to being a fitness instructor, including roles as a Zumba, Pound, and Water Aerobics Instructor. I also host wellness retreats and reading retreats. 

​

 My personal health journey led me to this point. Roughly 25 years ago, I started feeling unwell. I lacked energy, had trouble focusing, struggled with sleep, and always woke up tired. My hormones were imbalanced, I was gaining weight, constantly irritable, and felt utterly broken. I had been seen by a lot of doctors, had lots of bloodwork done and still was not getting any results, I just had more questions. I didn't feel like the Dr.s were listening to me, and I was not any better.  I reached a point where I couldn't continue like that.

 I had a friend who said, "Go to this lady, she can help you!"  I'm not going to lie. . . I thought my friend was a little crazy, but I was so tired of feeling terrible that I was willing to try anything!

Super Long story short . . .

I drove an hour to see this lady, she gave me some herbs for support, and I did a cleanse. I was so excited when within 2 weeks I was getting energy back and within 6 weeks I was feeling a little like myself again.

 Needless to say, I was hooked on Holistic Wellness!!

         Shortly after visiting her, I realized the need to learn about holistic wellness to better care for my family and reduce reliance on over-the-counter medications. I began with essential oils, which led to herbs, then to ionic foot bath detoxing, and eventually to the connection of mind, body, and soul healing. This journey brought me to zoning, energy work, and, just a year ago, harmonic light therapy, which I consider the Icing on the Cake of my wellness journey.

In 2018 I opened my little holistic shop called Sollefully Made. It started doing Ionic Foot Bath Detoxes for people and I sell herbs and essential Oils. I also use essential oils and plant-based products to make clean products like cold pressed soap, facial kits, bath salts, etc. and over the years with some schooling I now am a certified Health Coach from Trinity College and a Certified Foot Zone and Face Zone Practitioner, a Face Zone Instructor and I'm working on my Aromatherapy Certification and becoming a master of Light Therapy and the many health benefits from harmonic light therapy.

What resonates with me the most from what I've learned is that Holistic Wellness is a lifestyle. There are no quick fixes; merely addressing the symptoms with a band-aid does not solve the underlying problem.
