Poop and a Fight

Now I am going to tell a story that is a little embarrassing to talk about, but I’m also proud about this fact. When I first got home from the Soul of Healing program in January of this year my health was changed around so much that I had one week of solid poops. Yes, after years of nothing but loose bowel movements because of the Crohn’s disease, I was given a sign when I needed it the most. I saw first hand that the impossible was possible. It didn’t last long, not more than a week after getting home I started to fall under some of my old habits and ways of doing things. I wasn’t eating the right way, my reaction to a lot of things was negative, and I quit meditating. But deep down I knew I had control over my disease now. If I am going to be strong enough to keep control is a whole other story. It is a day to day and sometimes minute to minute fight to keep my health, but it is a fight worth fighting:~)
