Have you ever been to the doctor or had a health issue that left you feeling that there was something wrong with you? That you were broken?
That’s how Western medicine works; it sees something wrong with you- the aches, the hurts, and discomforts in your life, and wants to “fix” it or fix the symptoms. To offer something to relieve your discomfort, or to take away your pain.
Of course, we all want to get rid of pain – that’s why most healthcare practitioners, even holistic ones, are trained to treat the pain, to help people feel better as quickly as possible.
The problem is that all those aches, pains, and discomfort in your life, whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual, are simply the effects of another cause.
Your symptoms are not a problem to fix; they’re actually a message from your nervous system.
In fact, your nervous system has been giving you taps on the shoulder to let you know that something in your life is not quite right, asking you to look at what’s going on inside, and when you don’t pay attention, it gets louder, and louder.
If you are constantly taking the pills or reaching for the quick fixes, doing things on the outside to make a change on the inside – without addressing the root cause – you are not going to move the needle forward on the wellness spectrum.
All those quick fixes are not going to return you to homeostasis, to an optimal level of health, well-being, and quality of life. They’re simply making you comfortable in this moment.
While you may feel better momentarily, you cannot escape the root cause of what’s wrong, the biological loops that your nervous system is locked in. And chances are that whatever you’re taking from the outside is probably creating more toxicity within your system.
This is why your symptoms aren’t a problem to be fixed- they’re beacons that show you where attention is needed.
You need to learn to talk and connect to your nervous system, understand the signals it’s trying to send you, and learn to cultivate and nurture it.
If you’re feeling challenged physically, mentally, or emotionally, you’re not alone. Personally, I’ve been exactly where you are. I empathize with you, and I know how challenging, how tough, how exhausting disregulation and disease actually feels.
I hit rock bottom because I wasn’t listening to the aches, the pains, the physical, mental, and emotional taps on the shoulder. In fact, for year, all I focused on was getting rid of the discomfort and quieting down those taps on the shoulder. But everything I did took me further and further and further in the wrong direction.
Ultimately, when the traditional system failed me, I made a conscious choice to start following the path that led me to my professional life as a holistic healthcare practitioner. And for the majority of the people I see, I’ve actually been a last-resort practitioner.
Like me, they also tried many things that didn’t work, everything they could to fix themselves, without understanding that they weren’t broken.
They simply didn’t know how to tap into the power of their nervous system.
Instead of reaching for something to make you more comfortable, when your nervous system is stuck in the biology of the past, in your traumas and old patterns, all that you have to do is essentially unlock that biology, integrate your old patterns, and open up the nervous system to what is possible.
In my over 20 years of practice, I haven’t treated, I haven’t cured, and I haven’t fixed a single condition.
All I do with the people who come to see me is get them on the process of cultivating and nurturing the technology within, so it can do what it’s designed to do.
If you take the best minds, the best scientists and doctors that have ever walked the face of the earth, and ask them to create a single cell in a petri dish, they cannot do that. However, the human nervous system creates tens of thousands of new cells every single day.
The inner intelligence that took you from two cells to 100 trillion cells inside your mother’s body in just 40 weeks – that intelligence never abandons you when you’re born. It stays with you for your entire life.
That’s why it’s not about fixing you or about treating the conditions. It’s about getting that innate technology that runs everything within your system to bring you back to homeostasis by integrating and processing any stuck patterns.
When it does, your capacity gets bigger, your quality of life improves, and so does your health.
That innate intelligence, that inner power, is something 95% of healthcare modalities ignore. They don’t know how to nurture and cultivate the nervous system.
That’s why I’m a last resort person after people have spent time, energy, and money on all these traditional treatments and pills, yet they never went to the cause. They’ve just been addressing the effects.
And do you want to know the best part?
The nervous system governs much more than your health. It is your intuition and your consciousness, it is how you see the world.
When you get past the stress, the overwhelm, and the symptoms, it frees up the nervous system and opens up its communication pathways. That’s when you can truly tap into your highest potential and start becoming a conscious creator of your reality so you can start expressing your most authentic self and singing your unique song to the world.
And that’s exactly what I wish for you in life.
