This is an excerpt of my free book G.U.T.S Grow Understand Transform Sense what lies within you

“When you first face a serious intestinal illness, you might follow the Western medicine route. It’s all about treating the symptoms, giving you drugs, or even resorting to surgeries in an attempt to make those symptoms disappear.

I won’t deny that this approach can be helpful in some cases, but after several surgeries, it just wasn’t cutting it for me anymore. That’s when you might embark on a journey into the world of holistic and alternative medicine.

You can explore practices like reiki, meditation, and energy work, which can open your eyes to a different perspective on why you get ill.

You’ll soon realize that your emotions have a profound impact on your physical well-being. Just like stress can create tension in your neck, shoulders, or back, other emotions find their way out in various parts of your body. That’s when you might start seeking tools to heal yourself, especially focusing on gut health.

You can come to believe that unmanaged emotions can manifest in the gut and wreak havoc on your microbiome. This, in turn, leads to specific food cravings that perpetuate an imbalanced gut and affect your brain’s chemical signaling through the vagus nerve. These changes influence your overall emotional state, and you get caught in a vicious cycle. Your gut imbalances keep sending signals to your brain, urging you to feel certain emotions or eat particular foods to maintain that state.

This cycle can lead to severe gut conditions, but even if you haven’t been diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome or Crohn’s disease, your gut health is crucial for a healthy brain and overall well-being.

So, for you, the key to breaking this cycle and ensuring a healthy gut is becoming aware of the factors influencing it and releasing behaviors and emotions that contribute to the imbalance.

In this book, I’ve gathered information from various sources to shed light on the causes of these imbalances and what happens when they surface. Through my experiences with gut health, certain emotions have stood out, and I’m sharing them here, along with exercises to help you identify how these emotions might be affecting you and meditations to assist in letting them go.

As you read and do this work, I encourage you to stay well- hydrated throughout the day and try to connect with nature as often as possible. A simple walk, observing a flower, or touching a tree can work wonders for helping your body integrate these energetic changes.

I hope this book helps you open your mind to a more holistic perspective on gut health and maybe even uncover something about yourself that leads you to more peace, love, and balance in your life and body. Remember, letting go of what no longer serves you is the key to living the life you truly want.”
