10 Years Healed!

Yes it’s been 10 years for me that I have been healed from chronic lyme, woo-hooooo!!  I’m sure that I have been bit by ticks as well as other vectors that carry lyme bacteria but I never became sick.  I think I know the answer as to why which is I learned so much when I was sick that I incorporated all those tools into my everyday life.

Tools?  My box of tools consist of detoxing as much as I can (I don’t detox everyday), dry skin brushing, exercise, eating as healthy as I can afford to, keeping my stress levels down which is not always easy as life is full of surprises many of them unpleasant and some we have no control over..

Yes, it’s January 7, 2016 and I must admit I am worried about my Mom who recently turned 90 and is suffering from high blood pressure, showing signs of early dementia.  I am not ready to lose her and I wish I didn’t live 6 hours away from my Mom but I try to visit her as much as I can.  So I am feeling stress from that…

On the bright side of the coin I am feeling really good physically and mentally, been on a diet (low carb), learning new recipes to keep my immune system strong and this past weekend I made fermented sauerkraut for the first time!  I have to wait at least 7 days before I can refrigerate the canning jars.  I am really curious to what my creation will taste like!

I feel lucky that there is a farmers market in town where I buy organic veggies so I know I am eating healthy and not GMO foods.  I can’t afford to buy 100% organic so I do the best I can with what I have.

I really don’t have much to say about chronic lyme except it was a nightmare when I was living it but I learned so much from being sick that it turned my life around for the better and may it be the same with you!  Learn as much as you can, watch the free online videos from reputable doctors who explain how the body works, yes, there is a wealth of information out there!  One just needs to know where to look..

Wishing all a healthy and happy 2016!
