Journey to Health

I went to see the Journey to Health doctors on Friday. I was pleasantly surprised by their knowledge and ingenuity, yet saddened and shocked to hear of my own dismal state of health, or lack thereof.
They gave me an ionic footbath, which is very hard for me to explain. I met Ms. Ellen, who is an extremely sweet individual. She first told me (because of my dry lips) that I was excessively dehydrated, which I was not inclined to argue with. So she told me to start drinking half of my body weight in ounces of water, which will kill me.
It gets worse.
I can't have any coffee anymore. This was just a suggestion, but I have regrettably resigned myself that she's right. Poo. She also informed me that fasting has only been starving me, because fasting is apparently for healthy people. I am not a healthy person. I must stop this as well for the time being.
She showed me a paper with all of these different circles of colors on it. She asked me to tell her which one stood out to me, or which one irritated me. I was surprised how much this made sense to me. I told her that the dark blue one stood out more than any of them, and she said that that meant that my thyroid was having problems. She explained it this way: each color has an energy wavelength programmed into it by God when he created colors. Each one of us also has these wavelengths programmed into it, because that's the way it works somehow. If something is wrong with us, then our bodies can communicate it to us by way of these wavelengths. I suppose it's like the way certain music irritates us, or delights us, or soothes us.
Sooooooo..... pretty much, my thyroid (mom's fault) is malfunctioning, and not handling my stress the way it's supposed to.
She then tested me for all sorts of allergies. I'm allergic to almost every common stomach-related allergy, which is why I'm in such a mess right now. I haven't been digesting my food hardly at all, and I've pretty much been repelling everything I eat. I'm also allergic to mold. Big surprise.
I tested ten out of ten in my level of toxitity.
I'm ripe for cancer.
My alkalinity is unfavorable.
Darn.

Exite!

This Friday, I go to the allergy doctors. I'm so excited. Even if they aren't able to help me, I know that they've helped other people, so I intend to make the most of this glorious experience and take in all the information I can. If they DO help me, on the other hand, it goes double, because I may want to study in Bio Electric Field Enhancement. Please pray for me if you think about it, because if I could get help from this, it would be miraculous.
Happy day!

Mango health?

I put mango peels on my face the other day.......... it didn't work.

It just turned my face orange and stuff. I still think it might work. I'm going to try it again some time whenever we have mangos again.
The coffee does work, though. I've been using used coffee grounds as an all over body scrub in the shower, and it works really well as a microderm abrasion thing. It makes my skin feel a lot smoother and softer, and I'm sure it opens up my pores, so I try to do it whenever I fast, especially. I'll try to post later on fasting. It's miraculous.
Another great skin healer is used tea bags and banana peels. Try it. It's all very economical.

Bio Electric Field Enhancement

In June I have an appointment to go see a couple in Wagner who are Registered Nurses and Certified Natural Health Practitioners. A friend of ours recommended them to us, and they sound marvelous. I went to their website, and they sound like beautiful Christians trying to use their knowledge of traditional and natural medicine for others, while giving the glory to God. They have cured what seems countless people from their allergies, stomach aches, headaches... even acne and obesity.
I can't claim to know much about them, not having been to them yet or having any results from their cures, but I'm so excited about being able to go in a few weeks! I always become excited upon hearing about natural cures to common illnesses, and people who believe more in their own bodies' ability to heal than in needles and surgery.
Please pray that this visit brings me much needed healing and answers, and that I will be further able to advance in my journey to a healthy life. If this does work, those of you who know me will know that I will be nagging you to go for the rest of your days until you do. For that, you should thank me. When I know something works, I hold on to it, and never let go, and then I stuff it down my friends' throats until they believe me.
Teehee.
Anyway, here is a link to their site if you want to know more: http://www.ajourneytohealth.net/Home_Page.php
I'm so super excited! I wish June was here!

My Story

I am a devoted sugaraholic, as well as being addicted to breads of all shapes, sizes, and wheats. When I was young, I was perfectly healthy and happy, a motion of energy able to do anything. At least, that's what I remember being. Despite frequent migraines, I was a normal little kid.
As I got older, my level of energy went down drastically. I began to feel slightly rotten just about all the time. I assumed this was growing up. Part of it was the migraines, and all the doctors I went to. One of them put me on a prescription drug to help the headaches decrease. One of the side affects to this drug was weight gain, which I wasn't too worried about, weighing only 85 pounds at the time. After getting on the medicine that didn't help my headaches go away, I gained 15 pounds in two months, which to this day I believe to have messed up my metabolism, taking my energy and not allowing me to process food properly.
When I was thirteen, nearly fourteen, I began having severe pain in the right side of my stomach. We went to several doctors, not to much help. To make a long story short, I had gallstones, and my gallbladder would have to be removed.
I tried everything I could. Juice fasting didn't do it, though it made me feel better than I had in a long time. Even colonics didn't save me from surgery, though they made me feel better than even the juicing.
I finally had the thing removed, which was a bummer. They said I had the gallbladder of a seventy-five year old. Not much of a surprise. That's how old I felt.
At the time, I was a little bit bitter about all of this health stuff, since I was pretty young to have to be worrying about it. But, after all was said and done, I realize now that it was, indeed, for a purpose, as God tells us all things are for those who love him and are called according to His purposes. The whole episode shook me, and made me realize that I wasn't living the way a Christian should physically live. I wasn't eating right, I wasn't exercising the way I should, and I just didn't have the right attitude about life. I didn't have enough information or knowledge to want to have a good attitude. To me, the physical realm of life was nothing but the luck of the draw. Either you have good genes and you don't have problems, or you have bad genes and you get shots and pain meds that don't work, but somehow make sense because the doctors say so.
This is the way I believe our society has been brainwashed. I'm still trying to get past my own brainwashedness. I have been a fan of natural medicine for three years now, and I feel a whole lot better. I still have major problems, mind you, but I'm working on it, and I'm trusting God to help me through them. I'm also praying that he will use my problems to teach me, as the gallstones did, or maybe to teach others. I know that none of us will have perfect bodies until the Lord returns, but until then, I believe it is our Christian duty to treat our bodies like temples of God, whether that be going to the doctor, or avoiding going to the doctor, or taking medicine, or taking natural medicine.
