Two weeks later - what am I doing!

Just two weeks ago I was packing my bags with this terrible anxiety running through my body. I had no idea if I was doing the right thing and making the right choice to travel by myself when I had such little strength. I was nervous about this whole trip and deep down I was wondering what I would do if I did not get better while I was away. I knew I wasn’t going to let myself come home still sick or even sicker then I already was. It was just two weeks ago the all the information and the energy that was making up my mind and my body was not only down to 97 pounds, but it was also ready to give up on life. In just 14 days I have gone through a healing journey that has transformed me from 97 pounds with no energy to where I am now 107 pounds and full of energy and focused on gaining 15 more pounds back. In just two weeks I have transformed active Crohn’s disease, scar tissue narrowing, and all the constant pain that goes along with that down to zero problems as of right now. Meaning no pain, basically normal bowel movements only once or twice a day, and I am able to eat all the fat calories I want… WHAT DID I DO, WHAT CAUSED ALL THIS CHANGE, is going to be the big question.

• I make sure I meditate when I wake up and before I go to bed for 30 minutes each time. Also through out the day when I become aware that I feel like I am to active to rest and take 10 minutes to sit in silence, I find time to sit for 5 to 10 minutes in silence. I need control of my active mind if I want control of my health.
• I rub Ayurvedic aroma oil into my body each evening before I meditate. Mainly I focus both my feet and gently around my ears.
• I drink licorice root tea and take an amalaki formula twice a day. Both of these are designed towards helping inflammation in my body.
• I do some yoga and some strength exercises where I am building my endurance up a little bit more each day.
• I am careful to get a big mix of all six of the flavors when eating. Sweet, sour, salty, bitter, astringent, and pungent are the flavors I try to blend in through out the day aiming for at least 1600 calories per day.
• As long as I follow the items above I seem to be able to eat just about anything. I do follow the Ayurvedic rule of eating when my hunger level is at a 2 or 3 I eat, and I stop eating at a 7 or 8. Leaving enough room in my stomach for my digestion to work at its best.

That’s it; by changing to that group of activities during the day I am able to keep my healthy state of being. This is what I consider to me perfect health. It is perfect for me right now, tomorrow I would like to see perfect health being stronger for me, but that’s tomorrow, for now my health is just the way it should be, perfect.
