Health and Strength

Six months ago I never would have guessed my body was in as bad of shape as it really was. I thought I was the healthiest I've ever been. I was working with a trainer for months prior, counting macros and finally achieving what I wanted when it came to body image. After visiting with my holistic healer, I learned body image is only the outside and someone can be severely messed up on the inside. Since then, I've been on the road to recovery to try to change my body in a better way.

I've been asked numerous times 'do you feel any better?' - and YES I do!

I know the holistic approach is a little different from the typical doctor visit and 'healthy' guidelines, but it was something I felt comfortable with and wanted to try before succumbing to the modern medicinal approach.

I've gone back to my holistic healer three times in the past months. My face is clearing up and eating healthy is no longer a burden but a way of life for me. I've had a few cheats and all they did was make me sick. So that's nice (insert eye roll here). I moved on from Lori (the holistic healer) to a foot zoner. That's a whole other issue but she's been able to tell me things that are going on in my body and a solution.

Sometimes issues aren't always physical, but emotional. In working with the foot zoner, we've discovered there are emotional issues that can block fertility rather than physical imperfections internally. Over the past month I've been able to slowly work through the emotions and find peace in where I am at this point in life. I'm a firm believer the Lord works in mysterious ways. Our plan of life has no timeline and if things aren't meant to be, they just aren't meant to be. BUT I have faith that one day, Ty and I will become parents. Whether it be biological or adoptive, we will be blessed with children in our family.
