Belief is everything to beat autoimmune disease

Belief is the only thing that matters if you want to beat autoimmune disease. I know on the surface this may seem over simplistic. As your belief in remission is strengthened your hope begins to increase. Hope and belief work in synergy and reinforce one another.

The day I believed I could beat my disease was the day a special lady told me her story. Her name was Lucy from the famous Lucy’s kitchen. She is one of the pioneers when it comes to the SCD DIET. I was calling in to order some almond flour and I asked her if she had time to talk, and she politely agreed. I was curious so I asked her to tell me her story in her battle with Colitis.

She had been suffering very badly with Colitis for years and she was ready to throw in the towel. She decided it was time to have surgery and have her colon removed, she was done fighting. A few weeks before the scheduled surgery she came across BTVC book and decided she would try the SCD DIET. She started the diet and all of a sudden her symptoms began to subside. For the first time in years she had seen real improvement in her condition. This experience gave her hope and she decided to cancel the surgery. She continued on the diet and tweaked along the way until she was achieved complete remission. As I’m writing this post she’s been in remission for more than 2 decades.

IT Finally “CLICKED”

I remember listening to her story and there was a point that it finally clicked. I knew that if she could do it and then so could I. After this phone call I was overwhelmed with joy as a few tears ran down my face. I’m just joking I’m a man and I never cry. Looking back at it I realize I had experienced a paradigm shift. I believed I could get better and my hope tank was restored.

Lucy, if you ever happen to read this I want you to know that I’m eternally grateful to you for sharing your story with me. You spent time talking a young dude who was scared beyond belief.  This talk changed my life and I’m so grateful for your generosity. Your an amazing woman who has spent the last 20 years paying it forward helping others in their healing journey. Thank You!!!!

If anyone reading this decides to try the SCD DIET in their healing approach and needs some SCD essentials check out Lucy’s site and show her some love.

 

QUALIFYING others who achieve remission                                from Crohn’s and Colitis

What do I mean by qualifying? This is when your subconscious mind is  loudly saying to you I wonder if my disease is worse than theirs, did they have a fistula, did they have SIBO, did they have their IBD as long as me, did they have rheumatoid arthritis.. and so many other random thoughts. This is our ego fighting us making us believe that their results are unique to their situation and providing reasons why we can’t also achieve these results. Perhaps you don’t do this, but I sure know I did as much as I hate to admit it. If you experience these thoughts don’t sweat it they’re normal. Realize your ego is talking smack!!! Instead focus on what things someone did to successfully achieve remission.

One of the MAIN GOALS of this site

Is to instill hope in you by showing you success stories through testimonials and highlighting remission ninjas. I guess you can say I’m trying to prove to you that you can do it. Each time you hear someone’s story who beat their autoimmune disease your belief grows stronger. This belief creates clarity and clarity is power. Before you know it your beliefs have changed, you have a plan, your actions enforce your beliefs, and now your feeling better than ever!

Can you see why I say belief is everything….?

Leave a comment sharing your experience of when your beliefs changed and you got HOPE.

I lost almost 60lbs in less than a year. I felt bad for myself for a few months then I made a decision that I was going to beat this death sentence. I went on a mission to study "remission" what things other people did to improve their Gut troubles and live normal lives. I turned myself into a walking Frankenstein and through lots of trial and error I was able to achieve remission. I've been med free flare up free for 10+ years. My mission is to help other people overcome autoimmune disease.
