The following blog is an excerpt from my book: The Sovereign Health Solution
Many years ago, I learned first-hand how powerful your mind is in influencing your physiology. At that time, I was working while still studying, and my idea of managing stress was daily intensive exercise. No matter how exhausted I was feeling at the end of each day, I would gulp a caffeine drink or two and head to the gym, usually for a couple of hours of weight training followed by a high-intensity run or cycle.
This was long before I had a proper understanding of the fact that even though exercise is a healthy habit to have, it quickly starts working against you if you take it too far. I was absolutely taking it too far. At that point, I had a lot of unresolved trauma and was very easily emotionally triggered. It was not difficult for me to feel stressed to the point of feeling like I was not quite coping with life. I had very little resilience and so I was unknowingly abusing exercise as a way of trying...
All Healing Is Really Quantum Healing
Quantum physics is the main reason why somebody can have multiple traumas and be very emotionally toxic, or can have an autoimmune disease or cancer, and yet with the right motivation and application, this individual is able to not just restore their health but to thrive. Quantum physics teaches us that every material structure in the universe has a unique energetic signature. The surface you are resting on right now appears to be solid. However, in reality, if you were to examine these seemingly solid objects under an atomic microscope, you would realize there is nothing solid there and that you are looking at empty space. This is because 99.999999999999 percent of an atom is made up of nothing. By “nothing” we mean no solid particles, but this “empty space” is actually made of a matrix of a wide range of frequencies that creates a field of information.
We perceive objects in our physical reality as solid because their...
The Control Is in the Environment
Another empowering science with massive implications for healing is epigenetics. Until recently, we used to hear frequently that: there is nothing you can do because it is genetic. We know now that this is yet another outdated way of looking at disease and healing. Believe it or not, many doctors and patients are still playing the blame the genetics game. Those who like being victims love this narrative. That is OK. Some people are not ready to take responsibility, and we are not here to judge that. However, for anyone who wants to take control of their health, this science gives them that power because it clearly shows that we are not victims of our genes.
Epigenetics means the control is not in the genes but above the genes, which is what epi means. The bottom line is that if we optimize our mindset for healing and get all the dietary and lifestyle factors right, we have an incredible level of control over our health, which makes the relatively...
By now everybody out there is aware that meditation has a wide range of positive benefits for our health. A consistent mediation practice helps us reduce stress, slow down the ageing process, as well as improve concentration, sleep, our self-awareness, and acceptance. Because the process of meditation improves parasympathetic tone (induces relaxation), it does promote cardiovascular health and it also encourages the immune system to work correctly (super helpful for anyone with autoimmunity). But that is the thing. The main key word in this entire paragraph is CONSISTENT.
The effects of meditation are cumulative and even though many people appreciate that, how many people do you know who have a consistent meditation practice? The truth is that you will enjoy the benefits with as little as 15 minutes per day (although more in this case is better), yet how many of us do it regularly? When I quiz my clients on this, most of them will say: “I know it is super beneficial and I...
Before I share with you my essential oil detox blends, I just wanted to emphasize that as powerful as essential oils are, they cannot work miracles. They are not a substitute for a good diet, adequate sleep, clean lifestyle, physical activity, etc. In my approach to autoimmunity (and health overall), I combine nutrition, mind-transforming modalities, herbal medicine, bioenergetics (incl. energetic medicines), and essential oils. It is this truly holistic approach that produces the amazing results I get with my clients. I am sure you can appreciate that when you integrate essential oils with other modalities that promote healing, you will have a much greater impact, compared to looking at essential oils as that one-stop solution to all your health problems.
1. These days, many people claim to be experts on essential oils but the truth is that many blogs that offer advice on essential oils are not written by qualified practitioners. Be careful as...
Have you ever asked yourself a question: why our bodies break down over time? The reason this breakdown occurs is actually very simple: the body stops responding to instructions from the genes because the right communication depends on having healthy cells in every tissue, organ and system of the body. This communication ensures that messages are delivered and received to modulate cell production, initiate and sustain cell repair, and perform other restorative processes.
For example, if the heart cells do not get the right messages, they simply cannot carry out the genetic instructions to keep the heart functioning well. So our health depends on turning on the genes that communicate messages to the cells so that the cells can perform their functions. The molecules involved in this communication are called cell signaling molecules.
Cell signaling in the body stimulates the pathways for gene expression. These are genetic pathways that carry life-sustaining instructions from the genes...
The first blog in this series that I published back in February was very popular so below are some more great insights from our speakers. There is of course a lot more of those golden nuggets of information to come in Part 2 of the Autoimmune Vitality Series so make sure you add those dates to your diary.
Click here for the event agenda.
So here you are:
Watch out for magnesium stearate in supplements and medications as many people with autoimmunity are sensitive to it. Magnesium stearate does nothing for the human body nutritionally and it is only used for a manufacturer convenience (it is a synthetic cheap filler). Vegetarian sources of stearic acid (part of magnesium stearate) include cottonseed oil (highly likely to be GM), canola oil (highly likely to be GM), and palm oil (sustainability issue). Remember that everything we consume has to be metabolized and detoxified by the liver, and then assimilated or...
Thousands and thousands of people watched the first part of the Autoimmune Vitality Online Conference and the feedback has been wonderful. 45k views in total! People have been sharing the stories, they have been excited to learn new information, and fascinated to hear what they may have already known presented from a different angle. The most amazing thing to me however is when people tell me: “I did not think there was anything that could help me get better and now I know that there is” or “I felt completely stuck and hopeless and now I feel that I have a new direction to go in”.
Restoring people’s hope is the biggest achievement for me personally when it comes to producing events like this one. I really do not want people suffering needlessly. Autoimmunity is not only preventable but many people reverse the autoimmune mechanisms in their body purely with dietary and lifestyle modifications.
As I have said before, I think it is an absolute...
The Autoimmune Vitality Online Conference Series is dominating my life at the moment. Coordinating and interviewing over 60 speakers in a reasonably short space of time is a challenge but I do thrive on challenge so it is all good! I have interviewed some amazing experts already and there are more to come. In the meantime I wanted to share with you some insights that may be helpful to you. This event will be bursting with them but you can enjoy some now.
Please, remember that this event is your ROAD MAP. I spent ages deciding on the structure because unlike some other online events which appear to have sessions chosen at random, I want you to know exactly how everything fits in together so you can easily identify your missing links.
If you are new to healing autoimmunity, this event is going to help you put the pieces of the puzzle together. If you have been on this road for a while but not quite getting the results that you want, this event is an opportunity to identify which...
There are many reasons why people do not reach the goals they set for themselves. I want to share with you my own “system” for setting and achieving goals. I happen to be very goal-oriented so I devised P.O.S.I.T.I.V.E. goal setting to maximize my chances of achieving what I want and let me tell you: it definitely works! So let’s get straight into it, shall we?
Sounds obvious? You would think so but I cannot tell you how many times when I ask people what they want to achieve, they insist on telling me what they DON’T want rather than what they DO want, e.g. “I don’t want to be stressed”, “I don’t want to be in pain”. Our subconscious does not process negation (don’t, won’t, etc.) because negation is a function of language, which we can only comprehend on the conscious (rational/logical) level. This means that when you say “I don’t want to be stressed”, the...
