When you doing your best to recover from an experience you can’t explain, it’s important to pay attention to your needs and do what truly nourishes your body. Maybe you are searching for a solution to a mysterious health problem, but you feel that you are being blocked at every turn. Instead of reaching into the future and predicting what will happen, it might be more important for you to focus your energy right where you are and to concentrate on your physical body. Feed yourself living foods, drink pure water, eat all of the greens you can, get fresh air, sunlight and exercise. Go for walks in nature, clear your mind and learn how to meditate. Above all, make sure you are getting enough rest. This is the foundation for optimal health.

I feel compelled to ask: Have you had a doctor check the health of your endocrine system? What’s going on with your pituitary gland, thyroid gland and adrenal glands? Do you know what they are, what they effect, and how the health of one can affect the health of the others?

Sometimes your mental health, physical health and emotional health can be affected by how you are treating your body or what you are exposing yourself to. Stress, lack of sleep and poor nutrition can play a role here.

Adrenal fatigue is a real issue. Hypothyroidism is a real issue. Chronic Fatigue is a real issue. Hormonal health is an important thing to check. If you have been feeling lethargic, exhausted, depressed, irritable, or have unexplained changes/discomfort in your body– now is a good time to be proactive and reach out to a health professional who understands how to work with your symptoms. Find someone who takes you seriously, who truly listens, and wants to get at the root of your health problem. You are not looking for a bandaid, you are looking for a solution. What is the underlying problem that is affecting your energy level? How can you slow down and do some repair work? What strategy do you need to employ to heal? What actions will support your health (and I feel compelled to add, specifically your hormonal health)?
