Whats's Up Wednesday #7 - Fatigue! [Medical Medium Healing]



 

Day 9 of all raw Medical Medium 20 Day cleanse

Day 44 of juicing asparagus

Day 31 of 90 Day Thyroid Rehab Challenge

Lots of detox, lots of sleep disruption, lots of emotional detox. A bit of adrenal fatigue. I started doing the Pocket Gym last week, which was so exciting! Still not enough energy to do it daily, but doing it at all is a huge #victorycheck because I couldn't do movement really at all before. 

More of my weekly update in the video. Lots of resting this week! Sometimes you have to just rest and allow the resting to happen.

What's Up Wednesday #6 - Emotional Detox [Medical Medium Healing]


 

Day 38 of asparagus juice

Day 25 of the 90 Day Thyroid Rehab Challenge

Last week I did 6 days straight of raw. Now I'm ready for the Medical Medium 28-day raw cleanse with 10% fat. So that's what's next!

Emotional detox has been happening too. Random stuff from high school, loss of relationships, creating big feelings. I'm using my emotional tools from my toolbox, ones I learned in Detox Mastery with Muneeza. Emotion Code being one. I've been releasing trapped emotions from my body and it has been so powerful. 

Another technique to let go of a relationship that's no longer working is cord cutting, which I describe in the video. I've used it and found it to be quite effective, so check it out if you think it could be useful to you.

One of my favourite shows that Medical Medium has done, about chronic illness and what it's like, is called "Soul's Gold". I'd call it an incredible emotional healing tool, it's helped me through some hard times. Loss of relationships, loss of self-worth, loss of trust, all of those things effect a person deeply. This isn't an easy journey we are on, and sometimes it helps to be reminded of why we are here.

Weird Detox Symptoms [Medical Medium Healing]


 

Part of healing is detoxing, and sometimes detox symptoms can be bizarre. Just for fun I thought I'd make a video talking about some of my odd detox symptoms.

Here are some of the weird detox symptoms I've had happen:
  • shooting pains in strange parts of my body
  • metallic taste in my teeth
  • sleep disturbances
  • excessive urination
  • breakouts, eczema, rosacea
  • itching
  • sores
  • phlem in my throat
  • eyebrow eczema

    What weird symptoms have you had happen?

What's Up Wednesday #3 - Asparagus Juice Update [Medical Medium Style]


I've been drinking asparagus juice plus eating asparagus for dinner for a couple of weeks now, and have seen some interesting results. I'm seeing more clearing out of toxins, of course, and I've also been in a small flare of shingles symptoms since I started the asparagus juice, lobelia and ALA (the latter two being shingles fighters specifically). 

I'm just witnessing it, because cleaning stuff out is a great thing, and I know how important the healing benefits of asparagus are. And I guess the Universe wants me to keep doing it, because there keeps being organic asparagus at Costco - which is NOT a regular thing to have at my Costco, by the way. So I'll just keep on juicing it and watching the results.

I have also joined the 90 Day Thyroid Rehab from the "Thyroid Healing" book, in a movement started by @fortheloveoflyme on Instagram - many of us are joining in to do this together. This first 30 days, in addition to our regular food routine, we are making sure to include: 

✓ 32oz lemon water every morning first thing
✓16oz celery juice 30 min later
✓at some point in the day, another lemon water
✓also 24oz aloe/ginger/lemon water

And of course, staying off the "NO" foods: 
🚫gluten
🚫eggs
🚫dairy
🚫soy
🚫corn
🚫MSG including nutritional yeast
🚫canola
🚫pork
🚫farmed fish
🚫artificial sweeteners including table sugar

I also promised some asparagus juice recipes, the ones I like. 

The first recipe I made is here in my previous blog post

Two more recipes I like are:

Asparagus Sunrise (printable recipe here)

1 bunch (1 pound) asparagus
2 grapefruits
1 thumb ginger
1 cucumber

Juice and enjoy!

The Age of Asparagus (printable recipe here)

1 bunch (1 pound) asparagus
2-3 large oranges
1 thumb ginger
1 cucumber

Juice and enjoy!

Q & A - Whats Up With My Cycle? [Medical Medium Style]


So commonly asked by those who are healing and those who are cleansing: What's up with my cycle? Where is it? Why is it more than 28 days apart now? It disappeared! Is it coming back? What's wrong with me?

The answer is nothing is wrong with you. You are detoxing. You are healing. Our bodies have wisdom we cannot even begin to understand. It's really very normal for our cycles to go through an adjustment period as we detox. Sometimes they become sporadic, sometimes they disappear altogether, but nothing is wrong, it's just a part of detox. It will come back! It will level out. All will return. the body is always striving for homeostasis, so it is doing what it needs to in order to achieve that for us.

Sometimes the body has to put certain systems on hold in order to balance others out, to let them heal. It's all right, though. Don't panic if your cycle changes or even disappears for awhile while you're cleansing. trust your body's wisdom. Trust the process. It's only temporary. It will return to normal in time, and your body will be better for it.

Detox?! Flare?! What Do I Do? (on Medical Medium protocols)


There are times in our healing journey where we REALLY understand why Anthony William always says "three steps forward, two steps back". Healing is not linear, it has twists and turns, and you can be going along beautifully and then all of a sudden, BAM! You're hit with a flare of your symptoms.

You might be afraid when that happens, thinking your illness is returning, that you're not really healing. But that's just not true. If you are giving your body the tools it needs to heal be feeding it the healing foods and supplements, and you're NOT feeding it the foods that keep it sick, then you ARE healing. It's so important to know that. Your body is working for you ALL the time, it ALWAYS has. When you've been your sickest, it's never been your body's fault - it works tirelessly for us no matter what. It always tries to maintain homeostasis and keep us healthy. But without the right tools to do that, it can only do so much.

Once it DOES have the right tools, it's going to take time to get all that bad junk out - all those old viruses, the old toxins, everything that has built up over time to make you sick. It needs to be hydrated, it needs plenty of rest, it needs plenty of  foods to feed the adrenals and cleanse the liver. It needs supplements and healing teas. And it needs time.

It really does take time to heal, it's crucial to recognize that. We didn't get this chronically ill overnight, it's not going to be an overnight process for the body to clean out all of this toxic debris, either. But it IS going to clean it out. And we cannot always see the work that is being done behind the scenes. So we have to trust, we have to have faith in our bodies and in the process. And we have to keep a light heart.

Meanwhile, there ARE ways to support our bodies in their healing process, and I've talked about those in the video, and about my own healing process.
