Let me share my health journey with you.
I’ve been where you are.Â
Many years ago, I had a major diagnosis that changed my life. I’d been feeling very run down and having many gut/stomach issues. The situation was hard, but it got much worse when I started having isolated, unbearable pain and my knees and wrists started swelling up. The swelling became so bad that I had to have my rings cut off.
Â
A doctor diagnosed me with rheumatoid arthritis, and it was a complete shock.
Â
Here’s the thing: I was only 27 years old! That wasn’t supposed to happen to someone my age!
Â
The doctor warned me that I had a chronic inflammatory auto-immune disorder.
Â
It could affect more than just my joints; left untreated, it could also damage many other systems in my body. I didn’t believe him. At first, I assumed I could still heal from it.
Â
But then I was told that I’d have it for the rest of my life.
Â
I’d have to take medications to keep the inflammation down and other drugs to help with the pain.
Â
When I heard this, my mind went wild.
Â
I’d always struggled with anxiety, and this diagnosis gave me anxiety that was nearly crippling.
I knew I didn’t want to follow the doctor’s protocol. I kept hearing my inner voice, and it wanted me to try something else. My loved ones weren’t happy about this; it wasn’t easy to explain to them why I needed to find another way to help myself. They had been so loving and supportive in finding me all the best doctors in the Bay Area. I felt that no one understood me anymore; it was a very isolating moment in my life. My family wanted to help me, but I had different ideas—I just couldn’t articulate them yet.
As I looked for another way to heal myself, I met many new mentors along the way. I found an amazing acupuncturist; I tried different healing modalities. This took place in 1990, and the internet hadn’t been created yet. It was much harder to find the right people back then, but I succeeded and was able to create a supportive network.
I started practicing yoga, and I could barely do the poses. But I felt something special in the room, and I just kept going every day. I met a chiropractor who helped me on my health journey, too. The relationships I created at that time played a critical part in my journey.
Over the years I’ve kept up many of these practices, and they’ve helped me to keep my autoimmune system in check. I still monitor my inflammation levels with the help of my healthcare professionals. I still practice yoga and take walks on most days. I take plant-based powders daily to help my body balance my immune system and keep inflammation down. In other words, I am ALWAYS working on staying vital, healthy, and happy.
Not only do I want to feel great,Â
I want to serve others—people like you! So that they can create and live their best lives.
