I have always been a sensitive soul. Are we born this way or does life make us become this way?  I like to think it is a bit of both.

There and Back Again... Throughout the process of stabilizing my physical self, my awareness was slowly increasing around the relationship I had with my core self and with my nervous system.

It has put in place systems that are wreaking havoc on the body of humanity. In order for true physical/spiritual healing to take place, we have to hold space for, witness and transform all that has been festering in the dark.

Rehabilitating SIBO was crucial in my recovery process from Crohn's Disease. The is very often an IBS hiding inside your IBD picture. Don't overlook it!
