Instead of writing about parasites and their impact on
your health this month, I’m moved to create a challenge about using a variety
of different modalities and technologies to improve the quality of your life
and hopefully help you heal yourself.
Background:
1.I’m
pushing 46 and for the past 10 years or more I’ve been dealing with a
progressively degenerating hip joint. Surgeons and doctors who reviewed my
recent x-ray described it as “horrendous, significant, WOW, etc.” The joint is
bone on bone in the weight bearing portion of the joint. There is no joint
space left and no cartilage left. All agree that I’m a perfect candidate for
surgery at any point.
2.I’m
also trying to avoid cholesterol lowering medications as well as fighting elevated
triglycerides.
3.Entering
midlife and the changes and challenges it brings.
For the past 3 years, I’ve been researching and testing a
variety of natural and alternative products, healing methods and technologies.
I’ve been compiling a website of information, research and tried and true
things that have worked with an emphasis on helping people mindlessly improve
their health by simply reducing the toxic load on their body. www.livinghealthiernow.com
I’ve also recently been exposed to a variety of energy
medicine and healing methods that have produced amazing results. For example,
while I was getting certified in The Emotion Code energy work, I lowered my total
cholesterol by 25%, my LDL (bad cholesterol) by 31% and my very bad cholesterol
called LP (a) by 73% in just 3 ½ months! The doctor was amazed.
I’ve learned more about the body as energy, intelligence
and healing. The body is in a constant state of transformation, repair and
regeneration. Give the body the tools it needs and it is designed to do amazing
things. Most of your body is new within 12 months! Why does my damaged hip
joint produce another damaged hip instead of a new perfect hip? I feel strongly
there must be a way to alter the programming of that cell memory back to a
perfect state. I believe God gave me these challenges as a way to explore a
variety of modalities and then share my results with others.
The Heal Yourself Challenge will last 12 months for me
(and maybe you too). I’ll be sharing the things that I’m currently doing that
have enabled me to still ski and golf despite my hip. However, I’m not happy
with just surviving on this hip and delaying surgery for a few years. I’m going
to be regularly implementing energy work, life style changes (dreading some of
those), direct current technology, retraining the hip muscles, exercise, diet,
meditation, stem cells, supplementation, detoxification, prayer, research and a
variety of other things I have not learned yet. I’ll share my progress and
struggles with all of it.
At the end of the 12 months, I’ll get my blood work done again,
after pictures taken, compare range of motion and pain, and a new x-ray on my
hip. Although I won’t be able to pin-point a single modality that made the
biggest difference, I know the results will be fascinating and applicable to so
many others with a variety of health challenges.
Want to join me on this quest for better health without
first turning to drugs and surgery? Check with your doctor first and along with
way. This will not be a substitute for medical advice of a licensed physician.
It will be an interactive journey with others who have been there - done that
as well as those along the same pathway of repair and healing. I haven’t
figured it all out yet, but might do updates on You Tube, a blog, articles for
Chat, Chew and Chocolate and Living Healthier Now, plus an interactive feature
for everyone to share their wisdom and experiences. Check www.livinghealthiernow.com for
updates.
Living Healthier Now and the Heal Yourself Challenge does not claim to diagnose, treat or cure any condition or symptom. Always work with your medical team to make the best choices for your given situation.
