About Elena B. Peden

Board Certified Naturopathic Doctor

I am the practitioner I wish I'd found in 2016.

This Work Was Forged, Not Marketed

Clean Life Real World exists because I lived what most people are still trying to solve. This is not a brand story. It’s a lived one.

Before the certifications, before the clients, before the system - I was a woman whose body was breaking down in ways no one could explain.

I did everything I was told to do. I followed the rules. I tried the protocols. I trusted the experts. And still, my health continued to collapse.

What ultimately rebuilt me did not come from chasing symptoms. It came from returning to order.

Board‑Certified Naturopathic Doctor

Healing is not just my profession - it is the path God used to rebuild me.

Before I ever became a naturopathic doctor, before the credentials and clinical training, I was navigating severe mold toxicity, Lyme, chronic infections, neurological symptoms, emotional trauma, hormonal collapse, and a nervous system locked in survival.

I was dismissed. I was told it was anxiety. I was given antibiotics, supplements, and surface‑level explanations that never addressed what was actually happening.

At my lowest point, alone, exhausted, and unsure how much longer my body could hold, I made a covenant with God:

“If You let me keep breathing, I will figure this out. I will heal myself, and I will go back to school and help others.”

He kept His promise. And I kept mine.

A System Forged Through Experience

Over the next several years and over $100,000 spent searching for answers, I discovered what actually works.

Not theories. Not trends. But principles.

What restored my health became the backbone of the system I use today:

  • Supporting drainage and detox capacity before detoxing

  • Using muscle testing for real‑time precision

  • Regulating the nervous system before pushing the body

  • Clearing subconscious and emotional patterns

  • Integrating spiritual reconnection rather than bypassing it

  • Living healing in the real world — not perfection or isolation

This became The Clean Life Method.

The Turning Point

When I finally uncovered the true root causes, including severe mold toxicity, everything shifted. But detox alone was not the answer.

The deeper I went, the clearer it became:

  • Physical healing alone was not enough

  • My nervous system was still stuck in survival

  • My subconscious patterns were driving relapse

  • My spiritual connection had been buried under fear and trauma

True healing required all three - body, mind, and spirit - working together, in the right order.

God did not design us to heal in pieces. He designed us to heal in alignment.

Becoming the Practitioner I Needed

My training reflects the depth of this journey:

  • Board‑Certified Naturopathic Doctor (BCND)

  • Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach (FMCHC)

  • Mind Body Spirit Release™ Practitioner (MBSR‑P)

  • Extensive training in muscle testing, detoxification, emotional clearing, and spiritual alignment

But the most meaningful education came from walking through the fire myself. I became the practitioner I once searched for, and could not find.

Why I Work the Way I Do

Today, I no longer offer surface‑level healing.

I do not accept clients who want quick fixes, symptom suppression, or protocol hopping.

My work is built on three non‑negotiables:

1. The Body Must Be Supported First
Drainage, detox capacity, and cellular health are foundational. Guessing does not heal.

2. The Nervous System Must Be Regulated
A body in survival cannot heal, no matter how clean the protocol.

3. The Spirit Must Be Aligned
When you reconnect with God’s design, healing becomes clarity - not pressure.

This is where lasting transformation happens.

Who I Work With

I work with those who:

  • Have been dealing with symptoms for months or years

  • Have tried “doing all the right things” but still feel off

  • Have been dismissed or told their labs are normal

  • Are functioning, but not thriving

  • Are ready for real, root‑cause healing

  • Are open to body, mind, and spirit work

If you’re looking for shortcuts or someone to override your body’s wisdom, this will not be the right fit.

If you’re ready to slow down, listen deeply, and heal properly, you’re in the right place.


Your Next Step

Healing does not begin with detox or supplements. It begins with clarity.

If something in you knows your body has been trying to communicate, and you’re ready to understand what it’s saying, the next step is simple.
