Hi friend. Happy Wednesday! As some of you might have read, I’m experiencing a weird shift in my physical health. I’ll link the last blog post I did,(Healing Is Happening) so that you can get a bit of an update. Anyways, thats been going really well, I was feeling really good, I was loving life and I was really working on it, until I babysat, and had a sneaky cookie. GUYS IT WAS A HORRIBLE IDEA. I woke up the next morning feeling so sick, and uncomfortable and on top of that, I was incredibly depressed. The sugar had hit me and it was a huge wake up call. I quickly called my doctor and told her what I was feeling and she explained that the overgrowth was far worse than she thought. So where does that leave me?? A BONE BROTH CLEANS.

My doctor explained that for the next few days, it is imperative that the only thing I consume is bone broth, and water, yes, you read that correctly. Friends, the first day was not so bad! Im allowed to add in things like garlic and onions! This Is obviously difficult but like Rachel Hollis says, Im “enjoying the process” Im smiling about the potential effects it can have on changing this pattern and I’m hoping this sticks. Another thing that I noticed, is guys…I was SO incredibly joyful all day. I can’t remember the last time I felt this much true, honest joy, and I think that speaks volumes about the healing thats already taking place! (so much of me mental health has to do with my physical health. things like sugar consumption and hormones, and well… leaky gut!)

Im learning as I go, and of course there are things that are incredibly inconvenient, like the fast that my candida will be gone by the end of this treatment but my leaky gut won’t because of my medication, or that ill be on this diet, basically for the rest of my life, or that my medicine is working but it gives me crazy hear burn, all of those things are unfortunate and tough, but Im really holding onto the fact that all of this might bring the change I’ve hoped for, for a year and a half. Im really excited to share this journey, and I hope you’re excited to come along side. Im learning so much!!

Blessings always,
