Chicken Soup

YUM.
This soup is similar to my veggie detox soup, but without the zuchinni.
First, I boiled then simmered 3 frozen chicken thighs (with bone and skin) in some broth for awhile, til they were cooked.
Threw in some chopped onions, chopped parsley, chopped celery and a bag of frozn carrots and simmered some more.
Chopped like 8 cloves of garlic, set to side.
Chopped one bunch of kale.
Remove chicken thighs, set aside to cool, add kale. Add more broth.
Shred chicken thighs. Throw meat back in and add garlic. Season with pink salt, celery salt, garlic powder.
Done.
Flavor is even better after sitting in fridge overnight.
Light, healthy, so amazingly delicious- this broth is so so good.
I'm eating this for every meal today. I often use Mondays as a detox/recovery day, since the weekend usually means treats galore.
I did not use zuchinni in this soup  because I am trying to avoid lectins, a substance in many different foods that makes digestion hard, and the practioner I'm working with for hair analysis suggested I try to avoid them, as the foods that still usually disagree with me are some of the highest in lectins. So avoiding beans, corn, peas, melons, squashes and more...just a little experiment to see if it makes me feel better.
No worries though, this soup is wonderful and I think I like it even more than my veggie detox soup. My kids ate it with me for breakfast this morning and they enjoyed it too, especially the shredded chicken which is so soft and yummy.
😊 Let me know if you try it!

This Is Going Well // DNRS review

{This is going W E L L}  Brian gave me this mug for Christmas, and it's my favorite.❤  All the work I've been doing to retrain my brain and heal my body has been going very well, and I am so excited and optimistic about the future!  I mentioned previously that I would be starting the Dynamic Neural Retraining System, (DNRS), which works with neuroplasticity based techniques to heal an impaired limbic system, which is essentially a brain injury that results from trauma and causes your brain to process and store information as if you are in a constant state of "fight or flight", or emergency response.  Trauma is relative to every individual, and there are different types of trauma; obvious things like death, war, victim of a crime, major accidents, and those sort of things are Traumas with a capital 'T'. Things like illness, chronic stress, unstable family life, negative relationships, and many others, are  traumas with a little 't'; on

Transformation // Hair Analysis #2

I haven't posted in over a year.  I have six drafts that I started writing and never posted because I just couldn't decide what to say, with all the current world events and how I was feeling emotionally and mentally, (kind of all over the place), so....it has been quite awhile since I updated on where I'm at in my health journey. When I last posted here, I talked about DNRS and what a difference it was making for me. I am very happy to say that, even with the world being turned upside down, I was still able to keep that new level of health I had reached, and I am now doing better than ever. That's not to say there haven't been a lot of ups and downs, and some really low lows, but I really believe that I healed my root cause issues. 2 years ago, I was working on treating anxiety, SIBO, low stomach acid, HPA axis dysfunction a.k.a. adrenal fatigue (the most severe my doctor had seen on paper), other hormonal issues, and more, all at the same time; it was challenging

Updated Supplement Protocol

This is my current protocol of supplements we are using to support my body in healing my gut, hormones, and overall health. I am posting this partly to document my progress, and also to share what is working for me,  and to maybe give people ideas to ask their doctor about. Do not just start taking any supplement without working with a trained practitioner. There are too many personal and varying factors to navigate the world of supplements and vitamins alone. Do yourself a favor and get professional, knowledgeable help to give you the best chance at complete recovery and fastest results. I saw my Naturopath last week, and we went over my symptoms and adjusted my supplements and added in a couple new things. This protein shake is one of the new additions to my treatment plan. OptiCleanse GHI is a protein powder supplement that we are using to support healing my gut, specifically leaky gut, and also support liver detox. It tastes quite good actually, which I was ver
