Hi, I'm Jimena

I'm a mother of two, originally from Spain and passionate foodie at heart. As an anti-inflammatory chef and Reiki Master, I believe in the combined power of food and holistic approaches to become your best self.

My personal healing journey impacted by Hashimoto's autoimmune thyroid, leaky gut syndrome and gluten intolerance led me to embark on a deep dive into holistic wellness.

And so, The Lemon Way was born. To become the vetted holistic guide I wish I had, while navigating the stress, overwhelm and exhaustion in the search of answers to feel Me again.

The Lemon Way is a way of life: an illness prevention and health maintenance & improvement plan that will help you be self-sufficient in your own wellbeing journey. With this toolkit and tips on anti inflammatory nutrition, clean beauty, wellbeing and mindful living, The Lemon Way is your holistic hub for living a vibrant, fulfilling life without compromise.

The Story Behind The Lemon Way

From Pastry Chef to Health Detective

Before becoming a full-time health detective, my dream was simple: cooking.

It all started about thirteen years ago, when I quit my job and spent a year traveling the world, discovering unique cultures and food. I came home and enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu. I was lucky enough to train at some of London’s most renowned spots—from The Ritz to my favorite bakery, Ottolenghi—turning my passion into a career.

Then, my body staged a massive intervention.

The high-paced, sleep-deprived kitchen life took a serious toll. The constant exhaustion, the bloating, the digestive issues, and the diagnosis of Hashimoto’s and leaky gut told me I had to change direction.

The Birth of The Lemon Way: A Guide Born From Frustration

I hit the pause button and went on a mission to heal myself. I successfully reversed years of fragile health and healed my leaky gut in just six intense months following a strict anti-inflammatory diet, and visiting holistic specialists. My lifestyle change helped get my autoimmune disorder in check. I realized how incredibly difficult, time-consuming, and expensive it was to find reliable, natural resources and holistic answers. The Lemon Way was born right there—as the essential toolkit and roadmap I wished I had on my journey to better health.

My promise to you? I’ve walked every single step of this path first. I’ve read the books, tested the products, and done the messy inner work.

The Lemon Way gives you the full toolkit to step into your own power and become the self-sufficient manager of your health—holistically.
