How To Survive & Thrive From Food Allergies & A Weak Stomach

Angelic beings, some of you have been wondering, "How in the world has Jen really had a Health illness for 20 years?" Well, I suppose for a long time, I had a mentality that would not allow me to see the light, however, I pushed through in dealing with all the crazy symptoms anyway.

I grew up in the woods, literally, back in the day, from as young as I was allowed to go outside alone (back then about 5), into my teens and twenties. I used to build forts in the woods as a young kid, and as a teenager hide out and camp out, and late teens and twenties, I was a runner, about 1 to 2 hours a day and the place I LOVED to run was in the woods, jumping over sticks, and vines and roots and left over trunks, rushing through bushes, and running under branches that stuck out, like a bandit! You name it, I tackled it. And even on a nasty occasion running through a 5 foot width left over spider web. Uck! But anything to keep going on the path.

Some of those symptoms, you probably don't want to know; not pleasant, but what's exciting is now knowing that these symptoms are not things I really need to be putting up with and the ability to affirm "I do not deserve to have this as part of my experience anymore!" And, for anyone who has the symptoms of illness I'd say the same exact thing! Health symptoms are different for EVERY person, and they move throughout the body and change up as though on a scale of Wheel of Fortune or Lets Make a Deal, etc morning game show programs.

Oh, to hold a glass of wine in my hand and actually be able to drink it, to run down the street for miles not thinking I'll be in pain for a week afterwards and questioning if I should do it, to dance all night long, to be fully expressed in my body, to be fully healthy and functional and able to count on my body and rely on it, to be alert and pain free and able to run after my son and play with him easily, or throw him around if he wants without complaint or giving up quickly, to finish tasks to their completion, to be reliable and counted on,  etc.,  etc., etc.

WHAT I AM TAKING TO SUPPORT THE SYMPTOMS

I am writing this piece as a recommendation from a friend and to those who requested to know why I am so happy and vibrant, that these products really do help.

So, I am an advocate for Herbology, among Naturopathy, Homeopathy, Flower Essences and Aromatherapy, but in this moment, we're talking about Herbology!

I have this handy HUGE Encyclopedic like book called: Prescription for Nutritional Healing. I go to this whenever someone is in need of attention, for myself or another. And luckily they have a section called Lyme's. Now it doesn't talk about for those who have had it for a long time, but it does mention some great supplements to take and here I am going to share them with you.

For the past 5 days, I've been getting up and making my own smoothie, by hand, and putting together a list of ingredients to support the healing or ease of the many symptoms. Here goes....

NUTRIENTS

What I'm putting in my own smoothie:

Any milk you want to start with, I use Almond Milk, and sometimes Hemp milk

Raw Chocolate Cocao Powder ~ Maya Superfood - food added flavor and health benefits of Cocao

Vanilla Protein Powder formula - for those vegetarians or added protein to support the muscles

Green Superfood Powder Formula ~ (Amazing Grass Co.) - alkaline balance, health immune function, amazing energy, to provide chlorophyll, which aids in detoxification, and other valuable nutrients and enzymes.

Echinacea Goldenseal Combo Extract (tincture liquid drops) ~ (Gaia Herbs Co) - Echinacea - for immune enhancing, Goldenseal - antibiotic (do not take goldenseal for more than 1 week at a time)

Milk Thistle Extract - protects the liver

MACA (not for Lyme's but great enhancer in my opinion) - (Herb Farm Co) Liquid extract to be added to drink - for sexual libido and energy (excellent for sexual health, awesome energy, etc).

Hemp Seeds - to be chewed - Omega 3, 6 and 9s, plus - 1 tbsp. Essential fatty acids are just good for you, great for emotional health too - great for joints and inflammation, helps combat pain and an anti-inflamatory

Bee Pollen Granules ~ to be chewed (Y.S. Eco Bee Farms Co) - to repair tissue and rebuild the blood

Kelp (Liquid Drops) ~ Contains essential vitamins and minerals and aids in detoxifying the body (only realized I own this just today)


Hemp Protein Powder - Essential Amino Acids, Omega 3's, and 6's


Barley Grass


Stevia drops for flavor

VITAMINS TO TAKE IN ADDITION WITH FOOD

Garlic ~ helpful to just add in the diet whenever possible, in cooked foods in particular in a crock pot, a wok, or soups - aids in the immune system and acts like an antibiotic.

Multi-Vitamin (Women's) ~ just important period, good for necessary vitamins - use a high potency source if possible

Vitamin E ~ any brand you like, can also be squeezed out of the liquid gel cap and added to drinks or foods  - An important antioxidant

Zinc Lozenges (Ultimate Zinc C) - Necessary for immune function

Ginseng Root - helpful to rebuild the blood and damaged tissues

Red Clover Capsules ~ (Nature's Way) - cleanses the blood stream!!!!!

F - Complex & Liver Detox ~ (must get from a Health professional) - Liver detox, to cleanse liver (Lyme's affects the liver  and when the liver is filled with toxins it can aid to easy aggravation, upset, anger, etc).

There are more vitamins one can take, but for me, 6 is enough!

VITAMINS YOU COULD ALSO TAKE

Pancreatin

Bromelain

Fish Oils

Primrose Oil

Selenium

Taurine

Vitamin A

Vitamin C

ADDITIONAL HERBS

Alfalfa - for needed minerals

Dandelion Root,  Hawthorne, Horsetail, Marshmallow Root - all for helping to rebuild the blood and damaged tissues

Antibiotics if you catch it early or find a really good doctor

I have 3 referalls for Holistic Doctors. I may heal it another way, but I'll keep you informed. These list of vitamins will not cure it. They will only help support it. A cure is the best, but its better to start somewhere than nowhere!

My Healing Practice

My practice involves an integration of healing modalities that are unique to the field of wellness, spirituality and health. I also do sessions that are focused on a singular method. The types of modalities that I include are: Integrated Energy Therapy, Igilli, Usui Reiki, Shamballa Reiki, Tera-Mei Seichem Reiki, Chakra Clearing with Angels and Crystals, Frequency Balancing, Axiotonal Alignments, Breathwork, Spiritual Counseling, WellSea Approach, Jin Shin Do Bodymind Acupressure, and Shiatsu Massage. Whether I focus on one method or another, the client and his or her openness to my “knowing” of what direction to take determine the integration of modalities. Each session may be completely different depending on the information I receive of his or her needs. The types of healing are all labeled differently, however, the focus, intention, compassion, and energy put into the session is the same. They all are targeted to help the person to release stress, relax, heal from physical or emotional symptoms and to help them open up a door that can lead them closer to their dreams, desires, and become a stronger beacon of love and light. My sessions help the client to learn about himself so that he can ultimately teach himself in life and utilize opportunities to become whole.

My methods of healing are unique. I use my own power of intuition to fill the needs of those who ask for my assistance. I do not go by any written or established guidelines or rules. I use the guidance of my higher self, the angels, the ascended masters and any divine light beings that enter the presence of the client and myself where I am working. I ask for the client’s higher self to participate in the healing session to assist him or her in whatever he or she may need, as well as asking them to join my higher self so they can work together as a team to help the individual on the table. When I begin a session I ask the participant what they are in need of and what their intentions are. Then I begin to explain what I offer.

The type of work I do fits in with Natural Healing through a process of getting in touch with the body through love, patience, trust, compassion, and time. The clients ultimately learn what they may need by practicing self-love. They grow to being able to feel all of their feelings, internally and externally, through internal forces and the outside world. Each session is geared towards being able to be with their body, being in touch with their feelings, being aware of every moment, every instance, every move of energy, every time a change of energy moves throughout their body inside or out. The type of healing I practice helps others to see their natural powers with ultimate relaxation. It helps them to start to trust their own inner knowing. It helps them to be more patient towards themselves. Natural Healing is about letting healing occur in a gentle way with love. My sessions are filled with complete love and a natural affinity in helping all of the person; not just part of him.

I’m passionate and love what I do because it brings miracles in people’s lives. The type of healing I do helps people from all walks of life, with any symptom, problem, situation, trauma, or difficulty, or even those who are already in a place of contentment; or perhaps those who think they are and are not. I would love to see all people come to a place of harmony within them, and be comfortable with every experience in which they embrace. I have seen people grow to become greater than they could ever imagine, and my work is the key to unlocking this gate.

The proof of my work is the testimonies of others who have changed their lives positively through this experience, through my presence and through love. There have been studies illustrating that energy therapy sometimes is the best healing form to help those with severe situations. One can establish confidence in this work by the experiences of those around them, the articles in the newspaper, magazines, stories they hear, by their own experience and by trusting their own feeling if it is something beneficial for them. Another reason these forms of Natural Healing have solidity is due to fact that teachers and practitioners have for decades and even centuries passed down these methods to successive generations to continue this work. As more people are becoming open to new healing forms, these modalities are becoming known and accepted by the general public. Many of these teachings have come from the great masters of India, China, and Tibet. These teachers have reached high authority through their work. I hope to become one of them.

I hope I can touch you in some way and help you transform what matters to you most and to help you gain a knowledge you never knew was possible.
