The Peaks and Valleys of True Healing

Eat lots of protein. Only meat has protein. Eggs are a great source of protein. Don’t eat too much fruit. Fruit sugar is the same as table sugar. Don’t give your child too much fruit. Make sure to swish fluoride regularly. Coffee is good for you. Eat 2-3 servings of dairy per day. The majority of your daily meals should consist of grain, bread, and pasta. There’s a pill for that. And the list goes on....

Yeah, let’s file those statements under, “things I no longer believe." Over the last 4-1/2 years of following a Medical Medium lifestyle, going 100% plant based, increasing my fruit intake, cutting out toxins, dairy, and grains, and replacing coffee with herbal tea, my body has not only been healing, my life, body, and spirit has evolved. 

I've realised what true healing is. It doesn’t come by way of the typical “health” guidelines — and it doesn’t come from a pill either. Healing is a long term process. A complete life change. Healing will hit many peaks AND valleys... I’m currently trudging through a low elevation ravine right now, but that’s ok. I spent 40 years living with bad habits, and I know I’m not going to heal immediately. I have to keep at it.

Beyond the changes I’ve experienced physically, my spirit is also evolving. Living on plant-based power, I feel completely nourished. Connecting with food and to the healing herbs I consume has shifted my outlook for the better. It was subtle at first, but has transitioned into a stronger ‘knowing’ that helps connect me to my spirit and the earth. I’m calmer and more positive. I feel like I’m vibrating at a higher frequency. The Sun and moon whisper to me with their gentle warmth and cooling energies, and nature is more alive than it has ever been. I’ve experienced overall positive benefits to my health and spirituality, and that makes me recognize the truth in what true healing is.

So, even though I’m currently wading through the thick sludge of this valley right now, I trust my journey, and my sprits are high as I climb slowly higher and higher to my next peak – my next healing breakthrough.
