Self-Management of Chronic Illness

Unfortunately, I got used to expecting negative things early on in life. Difficulties/traumas happened sometimes repeatedly and then unconsciously I begin to expect this.

An unconscious habit got put in place. Little did I realize how much this would impact my life, my reality. I did not know how much unconscious information my body was storing and I was deeply impacted by unconscious thoughts, habits and reactions..

Thankfully change and evolution are a part of my life!

I followed my interest in the body and how it works not in the usual way, I did not study to become a doctor or in any related field. I chose a more intuitive alternative way to satisfy my curiosity. I studied the body from different modalities. Starting with massage, Postural Integration, Alexander Technique, hypnosis, Body-mind Centering (which is studying from a deep experiential understanding of how the body works, organs, muscles, all the different systems in the body as well as developmental movement.)

Alexander Technique resonated the most with me and still does. Primarily because within it there is a way to understand how to create ease and fluidity in the body. This of course changes the nervous system and allows one to recover from traumas as well as the stress of everyday life. For someone with a very sensitive body, this is a Godsend. I have also spent the last 4 years studying the nervous system.

I am so grateful for Steven Pordgis’ book explaining the Polyvagal Theory and the nervous system. He explains the importance of knowing how it can hijack our ability to be rational kind human beings. Many others have followed in his groundbreaking understanding to help change our inner world. With this information, we can make transformative changes as we become conscious of what is going on in the brain/nervous system.. For me, considering how and understanding the nervous system works on a very basic level changed my inner landscape. It is a way to get out of over-reactivity and restore peace.

My experience with illness as a child and into my adulthood shaped my life and understanding this has helped me unwind illness.

Even as a child I was not a physically healthy being. My mother said I was the pickiest of her 6 children…. Probably because I was so uncomfortable in my body.

My twenties were ok, but when I hit my late thirties, early forties I started feeling sick again, thinking the malaise I had as a child came back.

Little did I know the real reason was that I had been bitten by a tick, actually by several different ticks over a couple of summers. We used to spend time in Massachusetts a few weeks every summer at my partners family’s summer home. At this time very little was known about Lyme disease. I had the classic bullseye and a few other unusual spots on my body but didn’t think much about it.

Over the next 30 years, I continued to explore my understanding of the body even as I developed more and more symptoms but no one could figure out what was going on.

I did not have the classic symptoms. Finally, after 30 years of putting up with symptoms, I was not very functional. There were days when getting out of bed was impossible. I was very discouraged that I could not help myself, or find someone to help me.

The sickness put tremendous strain on my relationship but true to what I learned as a child, I kept on trying/pushing. I could no longer do simple tasks, what should have taken 5 minutes to do often took 30 minutes or more. Simple tasks like making my daughter's lunch, getting her to school took so much effort. As things got worse I sometimes I would get lost while driving in areas I used to know so well. Meeting with other mothers and carrying on conversations became overwhelming. I could not track what was being said. I felt alone, isolated and scared, and no one seemed to be able to help. The symptoms were always worse in a 4-6 weeks pattern. When they were at their worst I went in for a blood test and finally got a diagnosis of Lyme disease and several co-infections..

After rounds of antibiotics, herbs, colloidal silver IVs, lots of homeopathic remedies a zillion plus supplements I started to get a little better. I even spent time in Kansas at a Lyme clinic. That actually helped, they did mostly energetic treatments.

But always some stress would set me back. I had become super reactive to chemicals, I couldn’t walk down the detergent isle in a store. I had severe reactions to mold.

I was trying to figure out what next I should do, perhaps go to the clinic again?

Luckily at that time, I was introduced to the AMP Coil. My first session was not super dramatic but after a few, it was like having a huge weight lifted from me.

It’s really difficult to describe but my body felt more like me again. I can remember walking into the session feeling totally unable to think or figure anything out. My brain was just not functioning and when I walked out the door after my session I could take note of the beauty around me and I had clearer thinking. Again it’s really difficult to explain but the AMP coil brought me back into a more harmonious place and from there I could start to imagine getting well.

From there I started getting my energy back and my life.

The AMP coil gave a new lease on life. It gave me strength on a psycho/physical level which allowed me to make the changes I needed to move forward and take charge of my life. I made the biggest change I had ever made in my life when I turned 70.

This change would not have been possible without the support and use of the Amp Coil. I was under more constant intense stress than I had ever been

With things like COVID, ending a 30-year relationship, moving, leaving the area I had known for 45 years, moving to a place I did not know. Yet I did not go under, my body/mind/spirit was able to work with all that stress. The Amp Coil was my constant companion, bringing me back to center.
