This is all it is. A simple patch that promotes wellness by using the light / energy in your own body. I LOVE having this in my wellness toolkit as a serious disease survivor into natural ways to heal! #healingjourney #hostileabdomen #scartissue #decadeofhealing #fabulousfifties #andominalsurgery #helpingcellsheal #wellnesstoolkit #hope #light #energy #rest #hydrate #fitfam #familywellnessroutine #smallsteps #medical #practitioners #helpingpeople
I’ve been asking God to give me his perspective and mindset about the upcoming #surgery. I can get caught up in some of the past trauma, in spite of the many blessings and promises I know are true. Like, shouldn’t I be over it already 😅? So when a dear friend texted me this morning with these verses, and said God had put them on her heart for me, my heart and mind said thank you ❤️ #hope #focus #pray #walk #prepare #think #surgeryprep #mindset #God #faith #trust #letsgo you, and I was encouraged.
I was going to wait until after surgery to add this new thing to my wellness toolkit (it’s turning into a workbench 🔨). A friend who has had health challenges of his own introduced it to Tom and me.
Different times in my cancer and cancer healing and now soon-to-be-abdominal-surgery-to-rule-out-cancer journey, people have shared something with me when I needed it. A book by Russell Blaylock on natural strategies for cancer patients, which helped me go to Sloan Ketting armed with supplements for the month of treatment in 2013; books on juicing and raw foods given to me by another friend who juiced to heal her breast cancer (given to me in 2010 when I was given a colostomy and a stage 3 cancer diagnosis. I didn’t have the courage to dive into those books until cancer returned in 2012, and dive into them I did!); essential oils five years after I had been clear from cancer, but wanted help with healing emotions and supporting hormones after chemo and radiation…. Still use them daily… You get the picture.
Our friend invited me to try patching. The patches use the body’s energy, like phototherapy. They’ve been used by Olympic swimmers and professional athletes. So to help prepare for surgery and to possibly promote better healing, in addition to a number of other things, I’m giving them a try. 12 hours on and 12 hours off. Today was my first day. Listen, if it doesn’t hurt and may promote healing and wellness, I will absolutely try! 🤷♀️☀️😎

Had a lovely time walking, talking and laughing with my daughters this morning. We did about two miles on the local #railtrail. This afternoon I’m taking a rest and using a #castoroilpack over my liver, and the area where I have the cyst. There are many ways to support the body’s ability #rest and heal. This is #onemorethingIdo. #abdominalsurgeryprep #castoroilpack #castoroil #queenofthrones #naptime #allthethings #gratitude #hope #naptime
I think Young Living knew that I needed some extra powerful nutritional support this month 👏🏻. I’ve been adding their new Deep Spectra Phyto Nutrition to my Ningxia Red drink, and to my powdered greens 🥬 as I prep for abdominal surgery later this month. Along with a bunch of other things 😎
I’ll post graphics in the comments below and include a link for you to see why it’s so good!
Do you need essential oils to help heal or give nutritional support? Nope. Back in 2012 and 2013 when I turned to juicing and raw foods to help heal a new cancer in my colon, in addition to more medical treatment, I did not use essential oils. I didn’t really know about them or understand how they could help me. When God brought Young Living into my life in 2017 I was looking for support naturally for hormones because chemo and radiation put me into menopause and I also was looking for help with healing emotions and trauma and anxiety and supporting my wellness naturally after the cancer journey. I’ve been so grateful. I use them daily, even though I don’t always talk about them. This month I am turning to them even more. I’m grateful for options that give me hope, wellness support, and that allow me to focus on preparing for surgery and healing afterwards.
Someone I saw recently on social media said that being healthy is expensive, but being unhealthy is even more expensive. Taking one small step each day (or trying to take a bunch, like I am), will serve each of us well.
What is one thing you do daily for physical, mental, or emotional wellness?

Adding apple cider vinegar to water may have its own wellness support help, but when you add blackstrap molasses, it may help a bit more (and I gotta admit, it tastes pretty yummy). #molasses #acv #applecidervinegar #acv #wellnessstuff #blackstrapmolasses #lookitup #morningroutine #oneofmanythings #nutrition applecidervinegar
Greens powder is a part of my usual morning routine, right now I’m adding #blackcuminseesoil and #cardamom to the mix. I’m thankful for good gifts God has given to help support our wellness! Have you tried black cumin seed oil or cardamom before? #wellnessgoals #onestepatatime #aftercancer #hope #gratitude #uptown #downtown #nothingbetterthanGod #morningroutine #greens #goodmorning

Something that empowers me is using a nutritional scanner. If only I could have insight about which oils and supplements may support my body 🤔 (Check put the link in my bio 😎)
