My Personal Story: Seeking a Holistic Approach to Health & Wellness

Dr V kinesiology

One of the most beneficial alternative medicine approaches I’ve experienced is Applied Kinesiology – the art and science of using muscle testing to uncover hidden health issues that once addressed, can dramatically change your health for the better!

About six years ago, my body began to turn on me. At least that’s what it felt like. I turned to conventional modern medicine for answers and to be honest, I had some pretty great doctors who quickly discovered some significant health issues.

But … their answers were all the same … take prescription drugs to alleviate the symptoms. And so, in desperation to escape the pain and discomfort, I did.

But then, I began experiencing new symptoms related to the various medications I was taking. I soon realized that I had a choice to make … keep taking the medications, or actually make some lifestyle changes and seek out a more holistic approach to my health issues – one that would strive to cure, rather than just mask the symptoms.

And so, with the Lord as my guide, I set about on a new journey …

Today, I’m briefly sharing about this journey over at Day2Day Joys as part of my friend Rachel’s series on how holistic healthcare improves health and wellness.

You may already know [via my About page] how a real food diet (thanks be to God) enabled me to get off all of my prescription medications and find nearly complete relief from the pain and discomfort of my chronic autoimmune disorder.

But what I haven’t shared, is how I’ve discovered some alternate methods of achieving improved health. One of the most beneficial alternative medicine approaches I’ve personally experienced is Applied Kinesiology – the art and science of using muscle testing to uncover hidden health issues that once addressed, can dramatically change your health for the better!

Dr VDr. Scott Vrzal is my kinesiologist here in Southern California. He’s a highly trained practitioner who has not only helped me, but my family (and many, many others) as well, to achieve better health through kinesiology and the many other healing methods he employs.

So join me at Day2Day Joys to learn more about the amazing diagnostic and healing art of Applied Kinesiology. My hope is that it will encourage you and empower you on your own journey to improved health and wellness!

Raising Healthy Families Series: Natural Living in a Normal Family

NaturalinaNormalFamily

Welcome Back to the Raising Healthy Family Series!

This week Sara from Your Thriving Family shares her personal strategies and advice for Natural Living in a Normal Family.

Sara comments: “Many of us are trying to eat real food and get back to natural products, for what we believe to be the best for our families.  The wall we sometimes hit, unfortunately, can be our well-meaning and loving extended family.”

How do you continue along your journey and keep the peace with the extended family?  Natural Living in a Normal Family is about finding balance and putting relationships first. Something that I couldn’t agree with more!

So, if you’d like some inspiration and advice for finding the grace in what goes in and on within your family, please visit Sara at Your Thriving Family.

Please note: I’m happy to partner with Positively Real Media Network on this series in order to provide you with a wide and varied body of knowledge and information about natural living. However, I want to be sure to point out that I do not know every single one of the bloggers participating in this series on a personal basis, nor have I read the entirety of the content on their individual blogs. Therefore, I want to caution that there may be bloggers participating in this series with theological viewpoints and opinions that do not reflect my own personal opinions and beliefs. Please know that I am striving to get to know each of the women in this new natural living network better, so I can ensure I’m developing connections with other bloggers who strive to bring glory to Christ first and foremost in all they do! The bottom line is that I appreciate being invited to join this network and participate in this series. I am praying that we all draw closer to the Lord as we strive to be good stewards of the resources and relationships He provides!
