So late on reading this, but I have been following alongside your journey and feel so understood. I have been dealing with chronic illness since 2010, and just received a diagnosis earlier this year. Being in the middle of treatment it has been both hard and liberating at the same time. Liberating to have answers and know that my body can heal. But hard knowing that doctors doubted my pain so long, and that I had to go to a doctor out of state to get the proper care I deserve. Not to mention the fluctuation in symptoms during the healing process. Though my ailments are not as painful as I’ve heard Lyme to be, I am grateful that you feel comfortable enough to share your journey with us. We are all rooting for your healing!!

"I really, truly believe that we only get sick because we are being called to wake up." That statement is so, so problematic and incredibly distressing to anyone who is battling a chronic or terminal (or acute for that matter!) illness, especially in the case of pediatric diseases. No one's Crohn's disease, insulin-dependent diabetes, or pancreatic cancer (among a million others) is a call to simply "wake up," and to suggest otherwise exhibits a complete lack of understanding of the diseases that people invest their entire lives trying to control or mitigate. Also, as a person who works in pediatric oncology, I find it completely offensive that you would imply these horrific and unfair diseases are a sign from the universe that these kiddos and their families should just be awakened to some higher consciousness. Admittedly, I am not your target audience. I implore patients' to be their own advocates, but I am a firm believer in evidence-based medicine, which oftentimes is a combination of Western and Eastern medicine. I encourage you to investigate further into the lack of randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, prospective studies on coffee enemas and water fasts. The information your propagate is not only false, it's harmful.

You have been such a light in this social media world!!! As a Nutritionist with UC, I used to be ashamed that food hasn’t “healed” me and spent so much time, money, and energy on it. A little over a year ago, I accepted that food wasn’t the answer to me healing. I do believe I have been given ulcerative colitis for many reasons. It has shown me things about myself I had never imagined and has brought me a career and life I am just starting to see. I’m now looking into doing more work on connecting with myself and opening up to love. I cried reading this post because you resonate with my experience so much and really explained it so well!!! This journey of chronic illness is a crazy ride but a huge blessing!! Sending you so much love and healing!

This post seriously brought tears to me eyes. I love every single word you said about looking inward. We really do have all of the answers. I’ve been going to an amazing energy healer for almost a year now & without even saying a word about it, she’s taught me that I too am a healer of my body & that alone has been such a tremendous gift for me. We have all of the answers within! Sending you light & love! xo

WOW Jordan. This speaks to me so deeply. I am so grateful for the voice you have given to being your own healer. I too have been through so many methods and cleanses, so many healing modalities I WISHED worked for me, only to feel more lost and confused afterward. A plant based diet has taken me so far in healing but a few months ago I realized… the pressure I was putting on myself to eat cleaner and cleaner was making me SICKER. I too have been loving Joe Dispenza’s new book!

This is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I can totally relate to everything you’re saying. After dealing with Lyme for many years I have learned to better trust my intuition and move on from healers when it no longer feels right.
I love that you say being our own healers doesn’t mean we can’t accept help, it’s more about trusting ourselves. The world tells us that the professionals know best but we as patients always have a deep knowing of what is right for our bodies. We just have to listen. I hope you continue to update us on your healing journey!

I have never felt so heard and understood.This post is me. I have felt for so long that all of the treatments and healing protocols and diet changes I have done are not going to be the catalysts to heal me. I truly believe it is so much deeper than that. Yes, they help, but they are not going to be the things that “save me”. I honestly think coming to this realization will set us free and we will continue to heal with each day passing. You are a light. Sending love and healing energy your way.

Love this so much. You got this, angel! Sending love and all of the healing vibes!!! It is so freeing to surrender and find gratitude for even (especially) our most painful experiences, as I agree that they are only giving us the lessons our souls need to elevate our consciousness. Game changers for my health journey (lyme/mold) were Joe Dispenza of course, Bruce Lipton (the Biology of Belief), and Annie Hopper (Wired for Healing / Dynamic Neural Retraining Program). Xo
