Healing does not need to be over-complicated. In the times of influencers trying to sell you $1000 dollar items on every post, please realize that REAL healing doesn’t need expensive tools.
Here are some of my top tips for keeping your healing journey simple!
1- Prioritize real, food over supplements. Quality over quantity!
2- Make yourself a routine to follow. Print out a list of things to do and do what feels best each day.
3- Don’t forget to have FUN. Healing is not just about rigid protocols- you need to find true joy and happiness in your life.
4- Your body needs minerals to heal- they are the foundation of health.
5- Vitamin D supplementation can mess with your mineral balance more than any other supplement. You cannot bottle sunshine- the sun gives more benefits than just vitamin D.
6- Magnesium supplements are the other big issue- overdoing mag can lower sodium levels, stress your adrenals out, and make your metabolism sluggish.
7- MORE is NOT always better when it comes to nutrients.
8- The state of your gut is so much more important than you realize. If your nutrient imbalances are not improving or you have a lot of food intolerances, then healing your gut is key to fixing things.
9- Nervous system healing is one of the most underrated parts of improving health. Your nervous system influences everything- gut, hormones, detox, energy, brain health, and more.
10- The body is a WHOLE. Working on 1 part can help to balance others as it helps to take stress off the body.
11- The stress in your life will absolutely keep your health struggles going. A terrible job or relationship creates a lot of stress and chaos in our bodies. Do not underestimate the impact of chronic stress.
12- Mold is one of the biggest dysregulators of health. Take it seriously if you find mold in your home or workplace.
13- Herbs can be incredible healers IF you are using them correctly. Fitting them to your needs is key.
14- Healing does not require expensive equipment. Fresh air, grounding outside, spending time with loved ones or pets- all free and very healing!
15- Pushing detox before your body is ready can set you back so far in your healing journey. After years of chronic illness, you need nourishment more than detox.
16- A few key remedies can make a massive difference if matched well- you do not need a laundry list of items to feel better.
17- PATIENCE is often a missing ingredient in the healing journey. It took years to become sick- it can take years to heal. Nothing happens overnight.
18- Believing that you can heal is one of the biggest mindset shifts to figure out. It’s crucial to believe in yourself and your body.
19- Sleep is another underrated healing tool. If you struggle to sleep, make it a huge focus to fix as it can help with nearly everything else.
20- Learning to listen to your body is one of the most important things to learn. It’s non-negotiable if you truly want to heal. You need to learn what your symptoms are telling you so you can learn what helps to calm them down. This can take a lot of time if you have never been in tune with yourself before. Start asking yourself questions when you feel badly- how did I sleep? Did I eat enough today? Am I more stressed about something? They are clues into what could help you to shift!
21- You do not need a gym membership to exercise. Go for walks. Dance. Stretch. Clean vigorously. Find movement that FEELS good to you. Running on treadmills can be soul-sucking. You should celebrate your body with movement that feels good.
22- Healing does not have to be complicated. It may seem so because it involves so much learning and un-learning. But at the core, it is about getting back to basics: nutrition, helpful remedies, love, happiness, and nature.
