Self-Healing: 22 Things to Have in Your Household for Optimal Health & Wellbeing
A Hard-Won Lesson We All Eventually Learn!
(scroll down to watch the video)
Recovery from anything and keeping ourselves well command embarking on a journey of Self-Healing.
This was another of many hard-won lessons amidst my journey to heal from long-standing, invisible illness and the fallout of Complex PTSD.
Here’s what I learned!
No doctor, practitioner, coach, guru, or whoever else can “fix,” “heal,” or take responsibility for keeping us well and aging gracefully.
They can bring their expertise to the table, present options, educate, facilitate, hold space, and provide guidance in creating and organizing personalized healing protocols, but…
Everyone must do the daily work.
This is the part that SO many struggle to understand, accept, embrace, and embody.
And it keeps them stuck in a perpetual cycle of hopping from one protocol/practitioner to the next, hoping that something or somebody will be or provide THE ULTIMATE solution to what ails them.
I searched the world high and low for this for YEARS and never found it.
Why? Because it doesn’t exist.
My continued dead-ends finally led me to realize that I had to take 100% responsibility and become my best self-healer.
Doing this led me on a journey into the realms of psychoneuroimmunology, complex trauma, subconscious programming, neuroplasticity, the power of daily habit, radical self-care, breath work, fundamental pillars of health, advanced gut, brain, and nervous system health, the interplay between psychology and physiology, self-sabotage, and more.
In doing this, I arrived at a deep understanding of what people tend to think will heal them and keep them well versus what’s truly needed, which are as follows:
What People Think They Will Heal Them & Keep Them Well – Biochemical; Short-Term
Lab testing
Supplements
Exact, Prescriptive Diets
Intensive Detox Regimes
IV Protocols
Etc.
Don't get me wrong, labs, supplements, and other biochemical supports are undoubtedly valuable healing tools. I use them -- albeit conservatively.
However, they don't address neurobiological trauma survival programs that continually hijack the nervous system, keeping the body stuck in a stress, energy depletion, pain, and chronic illness cycle.
And so...
What’s Truly Needed to Heal & Stay Well; Beyond the Biochemical; Lifelong
Mindset for Healing and Success
Optimizing Nutritional Status
Restorative Movement
Optimizing Breathing Patterns
Radical Self-Care
Healthy Boundaries
Resetting the Circadian Clock & Optimizing Sleep
Living a Lifestyle That Supports Continual Detoxification
Healing and Sealing the Gut
Dealing with Toxic Relationships
Dealing with Toxic Environments
Emotional Regulation
Hormesis
Shifting Patterns That no Longer Serve us
Self-Compassion (LOADS of it!)
Rewiring the Nervous System for Wellness
Harnessing the Power of Habit
Pursuing our Passions and Purpose
And in arriving at this understanding and in the spirit of supporting the self-healing journey and taking 100% full responsibility for our wellness, I’ve realized the need to equip our households with what I believe to be essential tools.

This said…
My journey showed me how desperately we need a NEW, MORE DYNAMIC SYSTEM for trauma-informed healing that focuses on the mind-body-spirit combination. One that supports and empowers each person to become their own best self-healers.
One I never found, and so…
I created The Wellness Code Holistic Healing, Wellness, & Life Optimization Practitioner Training Program.
It’s a comprehensive, truly holistic, trauma-informed, beyond-the-biochemical, empowerment-based coaching system for increased confidence, better client results, and higher-value program offerings -- along with step-by-step business and marketing training to turn your wisdom into a thriving, virtual waitlist practice.
The next cohort begins in Spring 2023, and spaces are limited. We’d love to have you join us!
