I have to remind myself constantly something my therapist told me years ago..."You are a spirit living a human experience." We all experience life differently and deal with pain and fear differently. My go-to response was to abandon my body. My soul was like, "Hell no! This sucks!" It has taken a lot of therapy to re-integrate with my body. To view myself as a warrior, a survivor, instead of a victim. I've been learning to love my body and trust it again. It's a process. Wrap your arms around yourself and thank your body for fighting so damn hard to help you heal.

Is your obsession with healing actually keeping you sick? 💥

It’s a controversial question, but for Theresa Piela (), it was the realization that saved her life.

In our latest episode, we discuss why "killing the bugs" isn't enough if your nervous system is convinced it’s in a war zone.

We’re diving deep into:

🛑 Why hyper-fixating on symptoms (the constant "body scanning") keeps you in a flare.

👐 How EFT Tapping physically signals your brain that it is safe to heal.

🥑 How Theresa moved from severe MCAS food fear to food freedom.

It's not just the missing out on activities you used to be able to enjoy, but also wondering if you will ever get to enjoy them again. (Side note...you will be able to enjoy them again. Six years into remission and I'm getting stronger every day.) I also found that I was super sensitive to barometric pressure changes, the cycles of the moon, rain, super cold temps, super hot temps, not seeing the sun for days on end. All of these things can affect your body and your mind, even when you're not battling Lyme disease. The next time you're noticing something weird happening in your body or your mood, don't forget to take into account seasonal/weather changes or extremes.

For most people, the changing of seasons is an exciting time. Whether you prefer winter to summer or spring to fall, it always feels like a time of beginnings. For...
