Part 2 will make so much more sense when you do!</h3><h2><strong>Part 2: The Real War Is Spiritual</strong></h2><p>Once the illusion crumbles and the system is exposed for what it is&#8230; a carefully constructed dream designed to harvest energy, obedience, and soul force, there is a brief window where one stands between both worlds. You&#8217;re no longer asleep, but you&#8217;re still caught in the Matrix. Even though you might no longer be seduced by the mirage, you are still tethered to it by fear or familiarity or both, simply because it's all you know. And in this vulnerable space, something begins to stir within you, though it's not obvious, but you might feel it.</p><p>This is the war few are prepared for.</p><p>This war is not fought with weapons. It is not negotiated with law. It is not resolved with facts or intellect or paperwork. This war is spiritual. It is invisible to the eye, but it battles with your nervous system, womb space and the ultimate prize, your soul. It is a war waged on consciousness; it's subtle, relentless and insidious. And its aim is simple: to keep you disconnected from your divine source, so you never remember who you truly are.</p><p>The moment you wake up is when the real war begins.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p>You start to feel it in the way your mind spirals, how your emotions erupt out of nowhere, how you feel exhausted for no reason, anxious without cause, heavy for no logical reason. You notice how distractions multiply, suddenly there&#8217;s a flood of noise, temptation, drama, or sudden urgency. The more you try to get still, the louder the chaos becomes. This is not a coincidence. Why? Because the closer you get to the truth, the more the darkness presses in to block it.</p><p>You might be thinking this is hocus pocus and has nothing to do with womb health. Regardless of what you believe, the energetic warfare is real, and it&#8217;s happening every day. There are forces that benefit from your disconnection. They thrive when you stay in doubt and despair. They feed on fear, amplify shame, and distort divine timing to keep you running in circles. And if you have not yet cultivated a relationship with Source, if your spiritual roots are shallow or non-existent, then no matter how &#8220;awake&#8221; you are, you will be vulnerable. Because the mind alone cannot anchor you to the truth. Knowledge is not enough. Strategy is not enough. The war is spiritual, and so the armour must be spiritual too.</p><p>This is why so many start the journey but never complete it. It's why so many women begin the process of awakening, detoxing, rebuilding&#8230; and then disappear into the noise. They lose their footing, get seduced by shiny distractions, get pulled into spiritual bypassing, or back into old coping patterns. They run out of stamina or worse, they believe they&#8217;re not strong enough. But this has nothing to do with strength. It has everything to do with spiritual connection. Because if you are not deeply connected in divine power, you will be swept away by the tide.</p><p>There is a scripture that speaks to this moment with prophetic accuracy:</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.&#8221;</em> &#8212; <strong>Matthew 7:13&#8211;14</strong></p></blockquote><p>Do not think for one moment, this is about religion. Heck no! The bible is a book that is showing us our reality. We are living in a time where the wide gate is everywhere, disguised as freedom, success, pleasure etc. It is seductive, easy, and popular. It asks nothing of you but your soul. The narrow path, on the other hand, demands everything. It is quiet, unglamorous, and often lonely. It requires discernment, discipline and devotion. It requires the Death of the old self and the Rebirth of the true self. This is what being born again means. Unfortunately, most are unwilling to walk it simply because they have no anchor. So when the temptations come, be it sordid sex, alcohol, or playing computer games for hours on end, they say yes. And with every yes to the illusion, they drift further and further from the gate of life.</p><p>This is why you can&#8217;t intellectualise your way out. You must embody your way forward. You must cultivate a connection to Source that is stronger than the noise. You must become unshakeable in every essence. Because in the final analysis, the battle is and always has been, between you and every part of you that still believes you are separate from the Divine.</p><p>The war is not out there. It&#8217;s internal.</p><p>And until that war is won, no strategy, contract, detox or praying for the Lord to come save you&#8230; will save you.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a-db9?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a-db9?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>Healing at All Four Levels</strong></h2><p>Once the veil is lifted and the spiritual war is seen for what it is, the question becomes unavoidable: <em>how do I return to myself?</em> Who is that? You, whole, real. The woman who knows who she is, why she is here, and how to walk with God in a world gone mad.</p><p>And here is where most fumble in the journey, because even though they&#8217;ve awakened to the system&#8217;s deception, they still attempt to heal piecemeal. The tendency is to treat their body without addressing their mind-state. They change their diet without clearing their emotions. They meditate without confronting their trauma and they pray without detoxing the chemicals, frequencies, or generational pain still living in their blood. And this fragmented approach, while well-meaning, is exactly what keeps them running around like a headless chicken.</p><p>You&#8217;ll have a really tough time purifying your body if you are harbouring toxic emotions, nor can you properly regulate the nervous system if your spiritual root has not been restored. You cannot elevate your life if you are still eating dead food, dead thoughts, and dead ideologies. You cannot reclaim power if your womb is still holding the memory of every time you gave it away. And you certainly cannot expand into your divine purpose while bypassing the pain you&#8217;ve buried in the dark.</p><p>This is why my framework, though practical, is rooted in something much deeper. Every pillar [Explore, Eliminate, Eat, Elevate] is a sacred portal into integrated wholeness.</p><p><strong>Explore</strong> is about excavating what's hidden. What is it that you are not seeing? It&#8217;s about seeing clearly what you&#8217;ve been missing and avoiding, and finally giving a name to the invisible.</p><p><strong>Eliminate</strong> is about releasing all that is false; destructive habits, thoughts, beliefs, people, substances, and spiritual toxins that clog the channels of truth. This is a sacred subtraction. It is fasting from the frequency of fear. It is cleansing your temple physically and energetically, so you can become a clear vessel again. This is where you make space for Source.</p><p><strong>Eat</strong> is the act of nourishing your body with life force. It is remembering that food is frequency. When you eat in alignment with your soul, your body begins to heal, your mind clears, and your emotions settle. When your intuition comes through loud and clear, this is where vitality returns.</p><p><strong>Elevate</strong> is the rebirth. It is the phase where embodiment begins. Where the rituals become part of your lifestyle. Where rest becomes a weapon, joy becomes a discipline, and boundaries become declarations of self-respect. It is where your healing becomes a frequency others can feel. Where your presence starts to shift rooms. Where the inner work manifests into outer reality. This is where your inner power is restored.</p><p>But none of this is possible if the foundation is spiritual disconnection.</p><p>Because here&#8217;s what no one says loud enough: <em>you cannot truly heal without returning to Source.</em> Not the watered-down version. Not the generic Universe. I&#8217;m talking about the Living Intelligence that created YOU. The Divine that still speaks to you through intuition, and dreams. And until you surrender to that Power, your healing will always feel like a grind. Because you were never meant to do this alone.</p><p><em>Alone</em> doesn&#8217;t mean without people. We are talking about without connection, guidance or divine order. Because even the most knowledgeable woman, even the most ambitious and disciplined, will burn herself out trying to heal a deep spiritual wound with physical solutions.</p><p>There are layers, gates and spiritual laws. And when you honour the order, healing flows. This is why you can no longer afford to heal in fragments.</p><p>The time for dabbling, experimenting, and Googling your way into healing is over. You are not here to manage symptoms. You are here to become a clear, radiant, healed womb-man, anchored in divine wisdom, powered by feminine intelligence, guided by Spirit, and no longer available for the lies or low frequencies that once seduced you.</p><p>This is all about remembering who you are, so you can walk with power, speak with clarity, and move through this world untouched by the madness.</p><p><strong>Feminine Power Hijacked</strong></p><p>If our body is the battlefield and our soul is the prize, then the feminine has always been the target.</p><p>Not the watered-down feminism we see on billboards or the gender debates designed to distract us. I&#8217;m talking about the raw, sacred, life-giving, multidimensional feminine intelligence that births worlds, channels wisdom, and stands in absolute union with the Divine. The feminine that bleeds with the moon, speaks in symbols, dreams in dimensions, and heals through her very presence. This is what was hijacked by the &#8216;system&#8217;, because once you control the feminine, you control creation.</p><p>And so they did what all empires do when they fear true power: they shamed it, demonised it, sterilised it, and repackaged it.</p><p>This is how feminine power was reprogrammed.</p><p>Instead of being guided to honour her womb as a portal of power, she was taught to see it as a burden. Instead of being initiated into her own knowing, she was taught to seek validation from external authority; doctors, degrees, partners, pay checks. Instead of being nurtured in community, she was conditioned to compete, compare, and isolate. And with each generation, the split widened.</p><p>This was a really clever strategy.</p><p>Because a woman in her true power is dangerous to the system that feeds off her disempowerment. Want to know why? Because a truly powerful womb-man, fuelled by her feminine essence cannot be easily sold to. She cannot be seduced by systems that promise status but require self-abandonment. She cannot be manipulated into fear-based obedience when she knows how to self-source her truth. She cannot be governed by shame when her womb is clear, her body is clean, and her connection to Source is unshakable.</p><p>So instead, she is trained to chase the masculine version of power.</p><p>She learns to measure her worth by how much she achieves, how much she earns, how much she can control. She becomes addicted to doing, because she&#8217;s terrified of stillness, terrified of what she&#8217;ll feel when she stops performing. Because deep down, she knows that when she gets quiet, the voice will return. The voice that remembers. The voice that says, <em>this is not who you are.</em></p><p>And this is the silent grief of the modern woman: she is exhausted because she is fighting her own nature. She is burnt out from self-betrayal, and she&#8217;s disconnected because she&#8217;s been too busy surviving to hear it.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a-db9/comments&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Leave a comment&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a-db9/comments"><span>Leave a comment</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p>This is why your healing must go deeper than symptoms, hence why my work is not just about fibroids or hormonal imbalances. The real work is unlearning the programming that told you your power was dangerous, your softness was weak, your intuition was silly, rest was laziness, your sensuality was shameful, your voice was too loud, and you were too much.</p><p>Because until a woman reclaims her true feminine power, nothing changes. She&#8217;ll keep detoxing without embodying. She&#8217;ll keep eating clean but thinking toxic. She&#8217;ll keep chasing purpose but abandoning presence. She&#8217;ll keep fighting battles outside of her when the real war is still within.</p><p>This is why the Holistic Cycle Method exists, to help you return to who you truly are.</p><p><strong>Explore</strong> your programming. <strong>Eliminate</strong> what doesn&#8217;t belong. <strong>Eat</strong> what enlivens your body. <strong>Elevate</strong> your life by remembering who you are. These are your return to self portals.</p><p>Because when a woman reclaims her womb, she becomes a living altar. When she heals her heart, she becomes a portal for remembrance. When she honours her emotions, she becomes a channel for divine intelligence. When she detoxes the trauma, the lies she believed, the heavy metals, and the shame, she becomes a vessel of pure light. She remembers that her power is in how deeply she can tune in.</p><div><hr></div><h3>If this resonated, here are three powerful articles to explore next:</h3><ul><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a?r=3nyazg">The Lie We Were Raised to Call a Life (Part 1)</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/how-what-we-eat-has-stopped-us-listening">How What We Eat Has Stopped us Listening to Ourselves</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-womb-divinity-and-the-silent">The Womb, Divinity, and the Silent Disconnection</a></p></li></ul><p>This space is where I teach the real truths about fibroids, womb health, and healing: the things women are never told.

Not the kind of suffering that screams in obvious ways, but the kind that seeps into every facet of your life without you even realising it. You may be educated, conscious, disciplined even, with the green juices, gym sessions several times a week, meditations and even journalling. But despite all that, there is this&#8230;void. Like an empty space but it feels like an ache. You sense that something is seriously out of whack, but despite doing everything &#8216;right&#8217;, your life feels... wrong.</p><p>Some people will fill that empty void with alcohol and call it socialising, whilst others numb it with sugar and call it a treat. Some find comfort in scrolling endlessly, watching the curated lives of celebrities and influencers, perhaps because part of them has given up on building something real. If you find yourself asking &#8220;how did I get here?&#8221; it's because somewhere deep inside, you know that something is off.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p>You see, the suffering you feel is the by product of a system meticulously designed to disconnect you from yourself. You are living a life built on programming and conditioning. Essentially, a life built around one gigantic lie.</p><p>Many of us inherited the same script: go to school, get good grades, go to college, go to university, get a job, get married, buy a house, have a few children, then retire. What we didn&#8217;t realise was that this script was never designed with our creativity in mind. We were born into a system, a machine if you will, where we were programmed to serve that machine. This machine thrives on our disempowerment, productivity, obedience and silence. So, unknowingly we&#8217;ve been living in a well designed cage and thought we were leading successful lives. We follow rules written by people who have no spiritual authority, and then we wonder why our life feels like a slow suffocation.</p><p>The truth is, many of us are not living. What we thought of as &#8216;normal life&#8217; is actually surviving. Most of us are in a constant state of low-level fear and spiritual hunger. Our addictions to sugar, alcohol, sex etc. are not the problem. They are symptoms just like &#8216;dis-ease&#8217; is a collection of signs and symptoms. In fact, being addicted to something like substance abuse is a desperate attempt to fill a spiritual emptiness no physical thing can reach. It's impossible to green juice your way out of soul starvation and you can&#8217;t hustle your way into wholeness, neither can you affirmation your way through decades of spiritual amnesia.</p><p>Yet still, you won&#8217;t know (or don&#8217;t know) what the issue is. You&#8217;ll feel the ache, but have no name for it. So you double down. Work harder, learn more, do more&#8230; or you swing the other way and disengage completely, rebelling against the system but still entrapped by it, only now you are on the other side of the same illusion. So you build a tiny home, move off-grid, dive into &#8216;conspiracy&#8217; research, study legal/ lawful sovereignty, chase the 3-letter processes and common law routes, all in the name of liberation. But what you don&#8217;t realise is this: <strong>you cannot escape a spiritual war with political tools alone.</strong> You cannot lawyer your way out of spiritual disconnection, and you cannot defeat darkness externally if you have not yet claimed dominion within.</p><p>And so the suffering continues, and it's not because you are not doing your level best, but because you are still working from the same consciousness that created the problem.</p><p>This is where most women find themselves. Standing at the edge of their own exhaustion, realising they&#8217;ve done everything &#8216;right,&#8217; and yet they are nowhere near the life they know, deep down they were born to live.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">If this article stirred something in you, share it, and follow me on Substack for more truth-telling on fibroids and personal power.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><div><hr></div><h2><strong>Waking Up in a False Reality</strong></h2><p>There is a shattering that occurs when you finally see through the illusion. It&#8217;s not sudden like a Hollywood awakening or anything, it&#8217;s more like a slow erosion of everything you thought was real. It's a really strange feeling. One day you feel liberated, then the next you are in disbelief. Then you realise you&#8217;ve been struggling through life just to keep the wheels of the &#8216;system&#8217; turning.</p><p>Knowing you&#8217;ve spent your whole life not living the life you desire because you&#8217;ve been told &#8216;struggle&#8217; was reality is enough to drive anyone crazy.</p><p>The job you hate that feels shallow and empty, that you keep doing anyway because you have bills to pay. Another day the conversations you have with others, feel scripted and the relationships you once held sacred now begin to feel transactional. And little by little, the scaffolding of the &#8220;life you built&#8221; begins to tremble. It doesn&#8217;t collapse overnight of course, but something in you has already cracked, making it very difficult to continue pretending everything is ok.</p><p>Waking up didn&#8217;t feel enlightening, for many of us. Instead we grieved.</p><p>Anger, frustration and confusion are just a few of the feelings you may have felt, possibly all at the same time. It is the sinking awareness that what you thought was freedom was just a prettier form of enslavement. You were never truly free&#8230; managed, medicated, and manipulated, yes. You now know that you were programmed to doubt yourself and override your intuition.</p><p>You were taught to confuse productivity with purpose. You were applauded for chasing masculine definitions of power, status, strategy, sacrifice, and scolded for showing or displaying anything feminine. And the worst thing of all is that the manipulation was so clever, so subtle that you believed it was your idea. You believed you made a choice.</p><p>This is the great disillusionment. The moment where the soul starts screaming louder than the conditioning. But the cruel irony is that most people, once they wake up to the lie, don&#8217;t know how to live in truth. They see the sickness of the system, but they haven&#8217;t yet remembered how to come home to themselves. So they panic, perhaps rebel. They search for new rules, or frameworks, new ways to &#8220;opt out&#8221;, but the frequency is still the same. Fear, urgency, resistance, defiance.</p><p>And this is where many are seduced by the idea of &#8216;sovereign rebellion&#8217;. They begin exploring the legal matrix, questioning contracts, studying maritime law, decoding the fiction of the &#8220;strawman.&#8221; They learn about trust law, the UCC, three-letter process templates, common law jurisdictions and yes, it feels empowering. It feels like you&#8217;ve cracked the code. Unfortunately, if you are still trying to defeat the system from inside the frequency of trauma, what you are actually doing is trying to win the war without healing the deep inner wounds.</p><p>Because if the work doesn&#8217;t begin within; if the sovereignty isn&#8217;t first embodied spiritually, emotionally, and energetically, then what looks like freedom is often just another distraction built on unhealed foundations.</p><p>Waking up isn&#8217;t enough. The system may be an illusion, but the suffering it produces is real. And until we begin the slow and often brutal journey of unhooking from the matrix inside our own nervous systems, minds, wombs, and psyches, we will simply build new cages and call it revolution.</p><p>The programming runs deep. It&#8217;s psychic and woven into culture, religion, medicine, education and family structures. It's everywhere and is reinforced through entertainment, music, schools&#8230; and the non verbal agreements we make to avoid our own pain. The greatest trick of this false reality is that we were made to feel responsible for the deception. That is the real prison.</p><p>So here she stands, awake, disoriented, grieving, enraged, and unsure of what&#8217;s real anymore. She can&#8217;t go back to sleep. But she doesn&#8217;t yet know how to live awake.</p><p>This is the most dangerous terrain of all, because the temptation to bypass, to numb or to rebel without grounding, is strongest here. But what comes next will determine everything.</p><p>Part 2 coming soon&#8230;</p><div><hr></div><h3>If this resonated, here are three powerful articles to explore next:</h3><ul><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a-db9?r=3nyazg">The Lie We Were Raised to Call a Life (Part 2)</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/christ-consciousness-reality-and?r=3nyazg">Christ Consciousness &amp; Reality</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/healing-and-rising-how-your-health?r=3nyazg">Healing &amp; Rising</a></p></li></ul><p>This space is where I teach the real truths about fibroids, womb health, and healing: the things women are never told.

we&#8217;ve strayed from what our body <em>knows</em> to be true.</p><p>There was a time, and I&#8217;m talking long before food pyramids and "trust the science" campaigns , when eating wasn&#8217;t about calories, macros, or influencer trends. I am talking about a time where food was all about <em>connection, let&#8217;s call it a </em>kind of silent dialogue between body and earth, but unfortunately, that conversation was severed...</p><p>And it was not by accident.</p><div class="captioned-button-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/how-what-we-eat-has-stopped-us-listening?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;}" data-component-name="CaptionedButtonToDOM"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">If this article stirred something in you, share it, and follow me on Substack for more truth-telling on fibroids and personal power.</p></div><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/how-what-we-eat-has-stopped-us-listening?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/how-what-we-eat-has-stopped-us-listening?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p></div><h3><strong>The Great Disconnection - How Modern Food Blocks Intuitive Flow</strong></h3><p>Let me get straight to the point. Much of the &#8216;so-called&#8217; food we eat today isn&#8217;t actually food. It&#8217;s a symphony of chemicals, mostly from artificial man-made substances. You&#8217;ll find refined sugar, synthetic additives, preservatives, artificial colours, artificial flavours, and countless other industrial concoctions filling the shelves of your local supermarket. And while they&#8217;re great for boosting shelf life and profit margins, they shorten your vitality and cellular integrity</p><p>You are literally being fed substances that stimulate your nervous system but deplete your life force. Caffeine hijacks your energy. Refined salt strips your body of its natural hydration and slowly deadens your inner landscape. Over time, this overstimulation scrambles your body&#8217;s ability to regulate hunger, mood, and even your thoughts.</p><p>But it&#8217;s the impact these substances have on your <em>intuition</em> that is perhaps most disturbing.</p><h3><strong>Welcome to the Bliss Point</strong></h3><p>Here&#8217;s where it gets sinister.</p><p>In the food industry, there&#8217;s a term known as the <strong>&#8220;<a href="https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6550161/">bliss point</a>.&#8221;</strong> It refers to the precise combination of sugar, fat, and salt that creates maximum pleasure in the brain which bypasses our natural satiety cues and switches off the internal mechanisms that tell us when we&#8217;ve had enough.</p><p>This is not accidental.</p><p>Forget about making things taste good...the whole point is to create an addiction. These foods are chemically engineered to keep you coming back for more and more and more, even when your body is screaming <em>&#8220;no more.&#8221;</em> In fact, the louder your body protests, the more these foods are designed to override that protest. They flood your brain with dopamine and create a false sense of reward, one that has nothing to do with nourishment and everything to do with control.</p><p>You&#8217;re not eating because you&#8217;re hungry. You&#8217;re eating because the food has been designed to <em>make</em> you eat. You literally look at the food and it says &#8220;eat me&#8221;.</p><p>And the more you consume it, the more you want, regardless of whether you are full up or not. The lines between true hunger and emotional craving begin to blur, and eventually, you stop listening to your body altogether.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Loving this?

All knowing data driven scientists, doctors and whoever the experts happen to be. You hop on the latest wellness trend, the latest "miracle" food or fat loss hack. It's almost like we&#8217;ve started treating food like an algorithm rather than something that nourishes and gives us energy.</p><p>What it boils down to is this&#8230;</p><p>You handed over your power to &#8216;experts&#8217; and your stomach. Your inner guidance has been taken over, dimmed if you will, so hearing the quiet voice that says &#8220;What does my body need?&#8221; is no longer heard. Rather than ask yourself, &#8220;What does my body need to heal?&#8221;, instead you listen to what your doctors tell you.</p><p>There is an issue with that&#8230;</p><p>A lot of the people we&#8217;ve outsourced our knowing to&#8230; are themselves disconnected to their true knowing. Their advice is often based on skewed science, biased studies, or industry funding.</p><p>So yes, you can certainly follow their advice, but to what cost when you ignore your gut? Now, I&#8217;m not sure what you would call it but in my mind that is called <em>miseducation.</em></p><h3><strong>How They Erased Our Ancestral Wisdom</strong></h3><p>So let me cut to the chase, because it's important we look beyond junk food and dietary fads. Walk with me...back in time. I am talking about the colonisation of lands, culture, and people - changed the game entirely.</p><p>So much of our ancestors ways was wiped out thanks to superstition and the belief that what people did back then was mumbo jumbo, so traditions were replaced...no forced, through genocide with Christianity and man-made science. Traditional foodways were replaced with the large-scale farming of specific crops. Spiritual relationships with food was dismissed as primitive and Rituals and Rites of Passage replaced by convenience and capitalism.</p><p>And here we are now&#8230; living in an edited history with edited food that changed our palates so much, we are literally eating ourselves into dis-ease and an early grave. So you could say, we didn&#8217;t just forget how to eat intuitively, it was trained out of us.</p><p>All this to ensure we NEVER step into who we truly are, because if and when that happens...it's game over for the power structure that keeps us in fear mode 24/7.</p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Still trust food labels more than you trust your own body?<br></strong>If your symptoms feel like a mystery, your body is likely trying to tell you something.</p><p><strong>Download the </strong><em><strong>Fibroid Root Cause Lab Report Decoder</strong></em>, a free mini guide that helps you uncover what your body&#8217;s been trying to say all along.</p><p>You&#8217;ll learn how to spot the real root causes that conventional tests miss without guessing, Googling, or gaslighting yourself.</p><p>Go <strong><a href="https://bit.ly/decodemyfibroids">here</a></strong> to grab your copy.</p><div><hr></div><h3>If this resonated, here are three powerful articles to explore next:</h3><p>&#8226; <a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/how-to-activate-your-bodys-internal">How To Activate Your Body&#8217;s Internal Pharmacy</a></p><p>&#8226; <a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a">The Lie We Were Raised to Call a Life - Part 1</a></p><p>&#8226; <a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a-db9">The Lie We Were Raised to Call a Life - Part 2</a></p><p>This space is where I teach the real truths about fibroids, womb health, and healing: the things women are never told.

questions&#8230;not just about their physical symptoms but about the very nature of their reality. Why is this happening to me? What is my body trying to tell me? What is going on? Why me? I would like to think the answer goes way beyond conventional health and that is where we start tapping into the essence of our true nature.</p><p>Let me explain&#8230;</p><p>At the heart of this awakening is Christ Consciousness. It's a state of divine awareness where we move beyond the illusion of separation and return to our original wholeness. This is not about religious doctrine, but about a deeper remembrance of who we truly are; unconditioned, limitless, and aligned with divine intelligence.</p><p>The reality most of us live in, however, is shaped by the false self, an identity built from deep wounds, invisible scars, programming, and subconscious beliefs inherited from ancestors, society, and past experiences. This false self keeps us trapped in cycles of suffering, powerlessness, and dis-ease.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Ready to learn what really causes fibroids?

The womb is where women birth life, ideas, and transformations, but when it becomes a storage centre for unresolved pain, blockages occur.</p><ul><li><p>Fibroids symbolise something in our energy field that is expanding but is not in alignment with life-force energy.</p></li><li><p>They occur in the womb, a space linked to creativity, self-worth, divine feminine expression, and manifestation.</p></li><li><p>They represent stagnation, indicating unresolved emotional trauma, ancestral trauma, and a disconnection from our divine feminine essence.</p></li></ul><p>When a woman operates from the false self (as I have done for most of my life), she remains in a state that keep her fibroids in place:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Unprocessed emotional trauma</strong> (especially from relationships, sexual experiences, and childhood conditioning).</p></li><li><p><strong>Societal and ancestral programming</strong> that teaches women to sacrifice themselves, suppress their power, or neglect their bodies.</p></li><li><p><strong>Disconnection from their feminine essence</strong>, leading to over-identification with masculine energy (overworking, over giving, suppressing emotions) and giving up the sacred space through hysterectomy.</p></li><li><p><strong>Lack of nourishment</strong>, physically, emotionally, spiritually, because she is living by external expectations instead of inner truth.</p></li></ul><div class="captioned-button-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/christ-consciousness-reality-and?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;}" data-component-name="CaptionedButtonToDOM"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Share this with another women who needs this information.</p></div><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/christ-consciousness-reality-and?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/christ-consciousness-reality-and?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p></div><h3><strong>Healing as a Return to Christ Consciousness</strong></h3><p>Healing fibroids, or any chronic condition for that matter, requires more than just treatment; it requires a return to the truth of who we are. When a woman releases the false self, she no longer carries the energetic conditions that allow fibroids to exist.</p><p>This happens through a four-stage detox process:</p><ol><li><p><strong>Physical Detox (Eliminate the Toxins)</strong></p><ul><li><p>Clearing mucus, parasites, and built up waste that contribute to fibroid formation.</p></li><li><p>Eating high-vibrational foods (living/raw foods) that elevate cellular energy.</p></li></ul></li><li><p><strong>Emotional Detox (Releasing Trapped Trauma)</strong></p><ul><li><p>Identifying and releasing suppressed grief, anger, and heartbreak stored in the womb.</p></li><li><p>Healing past relationships and childhood wounds to dissolve energy blockages.</p></li></ul></li><li><p><strong>Mental Detox (Reprogramming the Subconscious)</strong></p><ul><li><p>Removing "not enough" programming (unworthiness, guilt, shame) that keeps fibroids in place.</p></li><li><p>Shifting from a mindset of struggle and disease to one of power and healing.</p></li></ul></li><li><p><strong>Spiritual Detox (Returning to Truth)</strong></p><ul><li><p>Remembering that healing is not about "fixing" but about removing what is false so that the truth of our wholeness can emerge.</p></li><li><p>Deepening spiritual practices that align us with divine intelligence, e.g. yoga, meditation, energy healing, connection with nature, and so forth.</p></li></ul></li></ol><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share Beyond Fibroids&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share Beyond Fibroids</span></a></p><h3><strong>The Awakening: Stepping Into Who We Truly Are</strong></h3><p>When a woman heals at this level, fibroids stop being an issue because the energetic patterns that created them no longer exist. She is no longer carrying the burdens of the past, nor is she embodying the false self that kept her disconnected from her power.</p><p>She shifts from:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Victim to Creator</strong> &#8211; Recognising that she is not at the mercy of her body, but in partnership with it.</p></li><li><p><strong>Lack to Abundance</strong> &#8211; Understanding that health is a reflection of inner alignment, not external circumstances.</p></li><li><p><strong>Fear to Love</strong> &#8211; Operating from a state of trust, surrender, and divine intelligence.</p></li></ul><p>Christ Consciousness is the remembrance of our true nature. When a woman reconnects with this state, her body follows suit, healing becomes natural, effortless, and permanent. When you look at it from this standpoint, you&#8217;ll see that fibroids are not just physical; but symbols of what must be released in order for true transformation to occur.</p><p>The key is detoxing not just physically, but energetically, emotionally and spiritually, shedding the false layers and stepping into the divine truth of who we are.</p><p>If this resonates with you, I invite you to explore this deeper. What aspects of your healing journey feel most connected to your emotions, thoughts, and spiritual growth? The answers are already within you.</p><div><hr></div><h3>If this resonated, here are three powerful articles to explore next:</h3><ul><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-lie-we-were-raised-to-call-a?r=3nyazg">The Lie We Were Raised to Call a Life - Part 1</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-metaphysics-of-fibroid-tumours?r=3nyazg">The Metaphysics of Fibroid Tumours</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/are-we-high-frequency-beings-living?r=3nyazg">Are We High&#8209;Frequency Beings?</a></p></li></ul><p>This space is where I teach the real truths about fibroids, womb health, and healing: the things women are never told.

There is no escaping it. The deep, raw, almost indescribable pain that gnaws at the soul when a woman&#8217;s womb is removed. The body might indeed heal, the scars might fade, but something within feels like its been severed; an invisible cord or an ethereal link to something much bigger than ourselves.</p><p>For centuries, the womb has been revered as the centre of creation, a divine vessel that holds not just the possibility of life but also the essence of spiritual wisdom. But what happens when that portal is taken away? Does a woman remain whole, or does she silently mourn the loss of something deeper than flesh?</p><p>These are my thoughts, my insights, pulled from my own experience speaking to hundreds if not thousands of women, the energies I sense, and the whispers of the unseen. Although I love the science, I also cannot ignore the metaphysical, the unspoken grief, and the desperate need to reclaim what has been lost.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">If this article stirred something in you, share it, and follow me on Substack for more truth-telling on fibroids and personal power.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><div><hr></div><h3><strong>The Silent Rift Between Woman and Source</strong></h3><p>We live in a world where everything sacred is under attack. Our food is poisoned. Our air is thick with pollutants. Our minds are hijacked by low-frequency entertainment designed to keep us sedated. The very thing that makes us human, our ability to connect to Source has been reduced to a mere afterthought.</p><p>And for a woman, this connection is deeply tied to her womb. The womb is not just an organ; it is a gateway. A portal. A bridge between the earthly and the divine. Ancient traditions spoke of the womb as the seat of intuition, a sacred vessel that carries the codes of creation. Yet, in modern medicine, it is often dismissed as just another body part, one that can be removed without consequence.</p><p>But the consequence is there. I have felt it. The disconnection. The void. The way the energy shifts, how the fire dims. The feeling that something has been taken, not just physically but spiritually. A severing. A silencing.</p><p>Many women feel this but cannot articulate it. They wake up feeling hollow, lost, as if a piece of their soul has been extracted along with their womb. They may not have the words, but their spirit knows. The grief is real, even if the world tells them it shouldn't be.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>The Unseen Wound That Keeps Us Stuck</strong></h3><p>In a society that glorifies productivity over presence, we are expected to keep going. To return to work. To function. To ignore the deep, ancestral wisdom that tells us something is off.</p><p>But the body doesn&#8217;t forget. The spirit doesn&#8217;t forget.</p><p>Women find themselves battling depression, fatigue, and a loss of purpose. The fire that once fuelled their passions is replaced with a quiet numbness. And yet, they are told it&#8217;s all in their heads. That they should be grateful. That they should move on.</p><p>How do you move on from something you can&#8217;t see but can feel with every fibre of your being?</p><p>We try to reclaim ourselves, but how can we do that in a world that demands we exist in fragments? We are torn between work that depletes us and a yearning for something greater. We are trying to be ourselves, by ourselves, but the truth is, we were never meant to do it alone.</p><p>The need for deep, multi-layered healing has never been more urgent. Healing that acknowledges the physical, the emotional, and the spiritual. Because without all three, we are only patching our wounds instead of truly restoring what has been lost.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-womb-divinity-and-the-silent?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-womb-divinity-and-the-silent?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>The Path Back to Wholeness</strong></h3><p>So, where do we go from here? How do we reclaim what has been taken?</p><p>The first step is <strong>acknowledgment.</strong> We must stop gaslighting ourselves into believing this loss is insignificant. The grief is valid. The disconnection is real. And just because the world does not recognise it does not mean it does not exist.</p><p>The second step is <strong>intentional healing.</strong> This is not about blindly accepting what has happened but about consciously working to restore the energetic balance. This might mean:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Womb healing practices</strong>: Even without a physical womb, the energetic womb space remains. We can work with it, nurture it, and reactivate its divine connection through meditation, sound healing, and energy work.</p></li><li><p><strong>Reconnecting with the feminine essence</strong>: This means breaking away from the hyper-masculine structures that demand constant output and instead embracing cycles, rest, intuition, and self-nourishment.</p></li><li><p><strong>Reclaiming sovereignty</strong>: Healing is not just about rituals; it is about choosing, every single day, to honour our sacredness despite a world that tries to erase it. This might mean changing how we work, who we surround ourselves with, and how we speak to ourselves.</p></li><li><p><strong>Sisterhood and community</strong>; We cannot do this alone. Healing happens in safe spaces, with others who understand the language of the soul and without judgment.</p></li></ul><p>Most importantly, we must remember that we are still whole. That nothing external can take away the divinity within us. But we must actively choose to reconnect.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-womb-divinity-and-the-silent/comments&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Leave a comment&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-womb-divinity-and-the-silent/comments"><span>Leave a comment</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p>These are my insights.

It's a never ending road with twists and turns at every corner. For womb-men, this journey is sacred. The womb is equally a physical space as is an energetic space; a portal, a place of creation, intuition, and memory. Within it lies not only the potential to bring life into the world but also the stories, pains, and triumphs of generations before us.</p><p>But accessing this portal, the gateway to your truest self, requires preparation. It&#8217;s a conscious commitment to do the inner work.</p><p>And that work is far from easy.</p><p>Many of us carry generational trauma, imprints of pain, fear, and limiting beliefs passed down through our lineage via our DNA. These burdens were carried by our mothers, grandmothers, and even those who came before them, their experiences etched into the DNA we now embody. Others are the result of societal conditioning, cultural expectations, and personal wounds.</p><p>Often, we are unaware of how these unspoken, unseen forces shape our lives. They may show up in physical symptoms like heavy periods, painful periods, or fibroids. They might emerge as emotional imbalances&#8230;sadness, anger, or a sense of unworthiness. They can even manifest mentally, as self-doubt, perfectionism, or the constant urge to shrink yourself to fit into the world&#8217;s expectations.</p><p>Personally, I didn&#8217;t realise how much trauma I carried until I started working to heal my body. My initial goal was simple: to ease my heavy periods. But as my healing journey moved along, the healing got deeper; physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I began unlocking parts of myself I didn&#8217;t even know existed. I discovered that my body had been holding onto memories and emotions that were causing all sorts of physical problems.</p><p>Each layer I peeled back brought me closer to my essence, the true woman inside before the world told me who to be.</p><h3><strong>Healing is More Than Physical</strong></h3><p>We often believe that healing begins and ends with physical symptoms. That if we fix the pain, the problem is solved. But the womb, like the rest of the body, speaks a language that goes beyond the physical. Heavy periods, fibroids, endometriosis, or any other womb-related condition are not just annoyances, they are messages. Messages from your body, your ancestors, and your soul.</p><p>Healing the womb requires us to listen to those messages. It asks us to be still and present, to ask questions like:</p><ul><li><p>What have I been holding onto that is no longer serving me?</p></li><li><p>Whose pain am I carrying? Is it even mine?</p></li><li><p>What part of myself have I abandoned in an effort to survive?</p></li></ul><p>This work requires patience, courage, and honesty. It means facing parts of yourself that you&#8217;ve avoided for years, parts that might make you uncomfortable or even afraid. It means grieving losses you didn&#8217;t know you carried and forgiving people who may never apologise.</p><p>But it also means freeing yourself.</p><p>Every step you take toward healing allows you to reclaim the parts of yourself that were lost or hidden. It creates space for joy, creativity, and the kind of self-love that isn&#8217;t conditional.</p><h3><strong>Your Womb as an Ancestral Portal</strong></h3><p>The womb is a portal that connects us to the women who came before us and to the wisdom of our lineage. When you heal your womb, you don&#8217;t just heal yourself, you heal the generations that follow.</p><p>Imagine this: every time you release a limiting belief or shed an emotion that isn&#8217;t yours, you shift the energy within your ancestral line. You create ripples of healing that flow both backward and forward in time.</p><p>But accessing this portal means being ready. Healing the womb requires you to slow down, to listen, and to honour the messages your body is sending you. It requires you to nurture yourself, body, mind, and spirit.</p><p>When you do, you unlock a deeper sense of who you are. You begin to see that you are not defined by your pain or your trauma. You are not the labels the world has placed upon you. You are a powerful, creative force, a living expression of every woman who came before you and every woman who will come after.</p><h3><strong>An Invitation to Go Deeper</strong></h3><p>Healing is an ongoing journey, not a destination. And it begins with awareness. Today, I invite you to take a small but meaningful step:</p><p>Write down <strong>three things you believe to be true about yourself.</strong></p><p>Now, take a moment to sit with each one. Ask yourself:</p><ol><li><p>Is this belief truly mine, or was it given to me by someone else?</p></li><li><p>Does this belief serve me, or does it limit me?</p></li><li><p>What would my life look like if I let this belief go?</p></li></ol><p>Be honest with yourself. There is no right or wrong answer, only truth. And the truth will always set you free.</p><p>As you begin to question what no longer serves you, you create space for what does. You begin to rewrite the story of your life, on your terms.</p><p>Remember, healing takes time. Be gentle with yourself as you peel back the layers.

It&#8217;s a term we&#8217;ve all heard, used, and accepted without much second thought. But have you ever paused to ask, <em>what does it really mean?</em></p><p>Let&#8217;s start with the textbook definition. According to the Merriam&#8217;s dictionary, disease is:</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;A condition of the living animal or plant body or one of its parts that impairs normal functioning and is typically manifested by distinguishing signs and symptoms.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>On the surface, it sounds straightforward. But when you dig deeper, especially when it comes to womb health, you&#8217;ll find that this definition barely scratches the surface. Yes, it explains the <em>effects</em> of disease, but it conveniently skips over the messy truth about the <em>causes</em>.</p><h3><strong>The Unspoken Truth About Disease</strong></h3><p>The definition uses the word &#8220;condition&#8221;, pretty vague eh!. What they&#8217;re really describing is a <em>state</em>. But a state of what?</p><p>When you pull back the curtain, Like Toto did in the Wizard of Oz, you&#8217;ll see that there is much more to &#8216;disease&#8217; than what we have been told. &#8216;Disease&#8217; is the body&#8217;s response to living in an environment it was never designed for. An abnormal environment where we are constantly stressed, nutrient deprived, living with unresolved trauma (and don&#8217;t even know it), and exposure to harmful chemicals on a daily basis.</p><p>In other words, &#8216;disease&#8217; doesn&#8217;t just happen. It&#8217;s the culmination of years, sometimes decades, of the body adapting to unnatural and unsustainable conditions.</p><p>And this is what we think is REAL life!</p><h3><strong>Dis-ease: The Root Cause of Disease</strong></h3><p>The term <em>disease</em> itself hints at its true nature when you break it down: <em>dis-ease, </em>meaning a lack of ease. A state of imbalance in the physical, emotional, or energetic systems of the body.</p><p>When it comes to womb health, these imbalances often stem from specific "conditions" such as:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Hormonal disruptions</strong> caused by synthetic chemicals found in everyday products like skincare, food, and plastics.</p></li><li><p><strong>Unresolved emotional trauma</strong> that creates energetic blockages in the womb space, impacting its natural rhythms and flow.</p></li><li><p><strong>Nutritional deficiencies</strong> that leave your cells unable to regenerate and repair, slowly depleting your vitality over time.</p></li><li><p><strong>Environmental toxins</strong> like xenoestrogens, which mimic hormones and disrupt your body&#8217;s delicate balance.</p></li></ul><p>The standard medical model of treatment doesn&#8217;t address this: <em>the environment creates the conditions for dis-ease to thrive.</em></p><h3><strong>Your Body Speaks, Are You Listening?</strong></h3><p>Your body doesn&#8217;t want to be diseased. In fact, it&#8217;s always working to heal, repair, and restore balance. Symptoms like pain, heavy cycles, or fatigue are not diseases. They are <em>signals </em>(symptoms). It's your body&#8217;s&#8217; way of telling you something is wrong.</p><p>There lies the issue: treating the symptoms without addressing the root causes is like putting a bucket under a leaky roof without fixing the hole. The problem doesn&#8217;t go away; it simply finds another way to manifest itself.</p><p>The real question isn&#8217;t <em>how do I get rid of my symptoms?</em> The better question is; What<em> conditions have I allowed my body to live in, and how can I change them?</em></p><h3><strong>Changing the Conditions for Healing</strong></h3><p>When you understand that disease is not a random event but a reflection of your environment, everything shifts. True healing happens when you address the root causes and create new, nurturing conditions for your body to thrive:</p><ol><li><p><strong>Nourish Your Cells with High-Vibrational Foods<br></strong>Shift to a diet rich in raw, living foods that energise and hydrate your body at a cellular level. Think organic fruits, vegetables, and natural, unprocessed foods. These provide the enzymes, vitamins, and minerals your body needs to heal.</p></li><li><p><strong>Eliminate Toxins from Your Environment<br></strong>Examine your daily routines. Are you using products filled with synthetic chemicals? Are you drinking clean, filtered water? Small changes, like swapping out plastics for glass or switching to non-toxic skincare can have a profound impact.</p></li><li><p><strong>Release Emotional Trauma and Stress<br></strong>The womb is an energetic powerhouse. Stress, unresolved emotions, and trauma often create blockages that disrupt its natural harmony. Practices like meditation, breathwork, or sound therapy can help clear these energetic wounds.</p></li><li><p><strong>Hydrate and Rest<br></strong>Chronic dehydration and lack of sleep leave the body in a perpetual state of survival. Prioritise hydration with clean, mineral-rich water and give your body the rest it needs to repair.</p></li></ol><p>When you change the conditions in your body, you are preventing <em>dis-ease</em>. You&#8217;re giving your body the tools and the environment it needs to do what it was designed to do: <em>heal</em> and <em>thrive</em>.</p><p>This perspective turns the standard view of disease on its head. Instead of fighting the body or suppressing its signals, you begin to partner with it. You listen. You nurture. You heal from the inside out.</p><p>So, let me ask you:</p><p>What conditions are you allowing your body to live in today? Are they supporting your health, or are they setting the stage for imbalance?</p><p>Healing starts with a choice. The choice to stop masking symptoms and start creating a new environment for your body and soul to flourish. It&#8217;s not always easy, but it is always worth it.</p><p>Because the truth is, your body <em>wants</em> to heal. You just need to give it the space to do so.</p><p>It&#8217;s time, isn&#8217;t it? Time to take that first step. Your body is waiting.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Disclaimer</strong></h3><p>This article is for informational and educational purposes only.

Now, it&#8217;s time to take action.</p><p>This is where we shift from awareness to empowerment, where you begin to reclaim your body, your health, and your destiny. Healing isn&#8217;t about waiting for someone else to save you. It&#8217;s about stepping into your power, doing the work, and trusting that your body has the wisdom to heal.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Step One: Explore &#8211; Understanding What&#8217;s Really Going On</strong></h3><p>You cannot heal what you don&#8217;t understand. Many women are handed vague diagnoses of fibroids, endometriosis, hormonal imbalances, but aren&#8217;t told why their bodies are reacting this way.</p><p>The <strong>S.T.E.P. Process</strong> is the first step. Use the following tools to <strong>start understanding the unique story your body is telling you and build a foundation for true healing.</strong></p><ul><li><p>Understand your body&#8217;s signals, like cycle irregularities, pain, and fatigue.</p></li><li><p>Keep a journal of your symptoms and triggers.</p></li><li><p>Look at patterns in your lifestyle, diet, and emotional health.</p></li><li><p>Identify underlying causes, from nutritional deficiencies to stress and trauma.</p></li></ul><p>This process will help you uncover the root of your issues, empowering you to address them head-on instead of merely suppressing symptoms.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Step Two: Eliminate &#8211; Detoxing the Mind, Body, and Environment</strong></h3><p>Once you&#8217;ve explored the root causes, it&#8217;s time to remove the toxins that are holding you back. This goes way beyond a physical detox, it&#8217;s about cleansing your entire being.</p><p>Use the <strong>P.U.R.E. Path</strong> to focus on:</p><ol><li><p>Eliminating inflammatory foods, environmental toxins, and hormone-disrupting chemicals.</p></li><li><p>Releasing suppressed emotions like anger, fear, and grief, which often manifest as physical ailments.</p></li><li><p>Clearing negative energy through practices that lift you up.</p></li></ol><p>P.U.R.E Path is a process, but each step creates space for healing. By removing the things that no longer serve you, you allow your body to reset and restore its natural balance.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Step Three: Eat &#8211; Nourishing Your Body with High-Vibrational Foods</strong></h3><p>You are what you eat. But it&#8217;s not just about avoiding junk food, it&#8217;s about feeding your body with life-giving nutrients that promote healing and vitality.</p><p>Eating <strong>Triple &#8216;A&#8217; HV Foods is </strong>at the core of this step. These include:</p><ul><li><p>Raw and living foods rich in enzymes and nutrients.</p></li><li><p>Foods that balance your body&#8217;s pH, reduce inflammation and promote cellular repair.</p></li><li><p>High-quality, whole foods that are free from pesticides, additives, and toxins.</p></li></ul><p>This is <strong>NOT</strong> diet, it&#8217;s a <strong>way of life</strong>. When you nourish your body with high-vibrational foods, you give it the tools it needs to heal and thrive.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Step Four: Elevate &#8211; Reconnecting with Your Inner Wisdom</strong></h3><p>Healing isn&#8217;t just physical, it&#8217;s emotional, spiritual, and energetic. This is all about elevating your connection to yourself and your inner wisdom, your feminine power:</p><p>The <strong>Get S.M.A.R.T Vitality Blueprint</strong> helps you:</p><ul><li><p>Define what health and vitality look like for you.</p></li><li><p>Quiet your mind to tune into your body&#8217;s needs.</p></li><li><p>Balance your energy centres.</p></li><li><p>Spend time in nature and practice self-care rituals that honour your femininity.</p></li><li><p>Use your newfound awareness to create lasting change in your life.</p></li></ul><p>Elevating isn&#8217;t about adding more to your to-do list. It&#8217;s about simplifying, slowing down, and trusting that you already have everything you need to heal on every level.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>The Time to Take Action Is Now</strong></h3><p>You&#8217;ve been given a body with the power to heal itself, but you must give it what it needs to do so. Healing <strong>IS NOT</strong> and <strong>NEVER</strong> will be a quick fix. It&#8217;s a journey back to yourself. And that in itself is a journey.</p><p>If you&#8217;re tired of feeling stuck, disconnected, and unheard, it&#8217;s time to take the first step. Drop a comment and share your story. Let&#8217;s talk about where you&#8217;re at and what&#8217;s not working.</p><p>Your womb is more than an organ, it&#8217;s your power, your wisdom, your creation.

It is the seat of creation, not just for bringing life into the world but for holding a woman&#8217;s divine power to create, nurture, and transform. Yet in today&#8217;s landscape, the womb is under attack, often seen as disposable, a mere organ to be cut out when it&#8217;s &#8220;causing trouble.&#8221;</p><p>Hysterectomy, once considered a last resort for addressing uterine issues, has now become the procedure of choice. For many women, it feels like salvation from years of pain and heavy bleeding. For others, it&#8217;s a decision they deeply regret. This article isn&#8217;t about judgment, it&#8217;s about bringing to light the hidden truths, the lack of education, and the silent stripping away of feminine power that often accompanies this procedure.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>The Womb as the Seat of Creation</strong></h3><p>Ancient cultures revered the womb as the centre of a woman&#8217;s power. It wasn&#8217;t just where life began, it was the source of intuition, vitality, and creativity. Women were taught to honour their bodies, to trust their cycles, and to understand their connection to the earth and the divine.</p><p>Fast forward to today, and most women know little about their own reproductive health. We&#8217;ve been conditioned to ignore our inner wisdom, outsourcing our health to systems that prioritise quick fixes over root causes. The womb, a symbol of strength, has been reduced to an inconvenience when it doesn&#8217;t function &#8220;normally.&#8221;</p><p>Medical professionals often present hysterectomies as the ultimate &#8216;sexy&#8217; cure all solution for chronic conditions like fibroids, endometriosis, and heavy cycles. But what&#8217;s rarely discussed are the long-term effects, both physical and emotional...of losing this sacred organ.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>What Happens When the Womb Is Removed?</strong></h3><p>Physically, a hysterectomy can lead to hormonal imbalances, sexual dysfunction, and even increased risks of other health conditions. But the emotional toll is often overlooked. Women have reported feelings of emptiness, a loss of femininity, and struggles with self-image.</p><p>One woman shared that after her hysterectomy, she no longer felt like herself. She described a disconnect from her body and a deep mourning she hadn&#8217;t anticipated. Another spoke of losing her sense of sensuality, saying she felt &#8220;less like a woman.&#8221;</p><p>Of course, some women actively seek out this procedure, and for them, it&#8217;s a relief. But for many, the decision is made out of desperation, without a full understanding of the alternatives or the potential consequences.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Why Aren&#8217;t We Told the Whole Truth?</strong></h3><p>The medical model is designed to suppress symptoms rather than address root causes. Fibroids? Let&#8217;s cut it out. Heavy bleeding? Here&#8217;s a pill. But rarely are women taught about the underlying issues that contribute to these conditions: hormonal imbalances, stress, poor diet, and environmental toxins.</p><p>Women are living in bodies they barely know. They&#8217;re handed a diagnosis and a solution, with little room for exploration or education. And when the solution doesn&#8217;t deliver the promised relief, they&#8217;re left wondering, <em>What did I just do to myself?</em></p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>A Call to Reclaim Your Power</strong></h3><p>Healing chronic uterine conditions begins with awareness and a commitment to understanding your body. You cannot heal if you have no idea what&#8217;s happening inside you. Here are 4 simple steps that will help:</p><h4><strong>1. Explore</strong></h4><p>Uncover the root causes of your condition. Why exactly are you experiencing heavy cycles, bloating, or pain? Using specific tools, you can learn to tune into your body and identify what&#8217;s truly going on.</p><h4><strong>2. Eliminate</strong></h4><p>Remove harmful substances that are buried deep within body tissues fuel inflammation and promote hormonal imbalances. Using what I call the P.U.R.E. Path Detox, you&#8217;ll create an environment where your body can being healing itself.</p><h4><strong>3. Eat</strong></h4><p>Nourish your body with high-vibrational, life-giving foods. Food that are alive and alkaline provide the fuel your body needs to restore balance and vitality.</p><h4><strong>4. Elevate</strong></h4><p>Reconnect with your inner wisdom and feminine power. Through self-care and spiritual practices, you&#8217;ll reclaim the connection with your womb and your divine intuition.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>What&#8217;s Next for You?</strong></h3><p>This isn&#8217;t just about avoiding surgery. It&#8217;s about reclaiming your health, your body, and your power. If you&#8217;ve tried everything and still feel like nothing&#8217;s working, drop a comment and share your story. Let&#8217;s start a conversation about the steps you&#8217;ve taken and where you feel stuck.</p><p>You deserve to know your body, to trust your instincts, and to make informed decisions about your health. Your womb is not just an organ&#8212;it&#8217;s the core of your being. And it&#8217;s time to treat it that way.</p><p><strong>In Part Two, we&#8217;ll dive even deeper into how you can start your healing journey, so look out for that.</strong></p><div

For me, it represented limitations, control, and punishment, a book that seemed to restrict rather than liberate. I felt that religion held me back. It was confusing as well; a &#8216;loving&#8217; God constantly ready to punish me for my &#8216;sins&#8217; whenever I strayed from the rules.</p><p>Only in recent years did I begin to see the Bible differently. I started viewing it as an educational tool, not a binding contract. As I&#8217;ve grown, working on healing my deep inner wounds: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, I now see the Bible as more than just religious text. To me, it&#8217;s an ancient manual for life, much like the instructions you&#8217;d get with a new car or a piece of tech. I believe (and yes, this is my belief) that these ancient teachings were intended as a life guide for the original people of the Earth. But over time, this text has been rewritten and used as a tool to control the masses.</p><p>What we&#8217;ve had throughout history, and what we still have today, are rules and systems set by human authorities: governments deciding how we live and science dictating the &#8216;rules&#8217; of health. And look where we are now; globally suffering with so-called &#8216;dis-eases,&#8217; mental health problems on the rise, and ever-increasing stress. We may be living longer, but we are burdened by chronic conditions, forcing us to live with &#8216;dis-ease&#8217; rather than be in true health.</p><p>I believe this world wouldn&#8217;t be in such a state if we embraced and truly lived the principles in the Bible. Even many self-identified Christians suffer because their pastors don&#8217;t fully interpret the scriptures, leaving many people with no choice but to look outside themselves for answers. And those who don&#8217;t believe in any higher power? They may dismiss these teachings, but they&#8217;re still governed by the universe's laws no matter what.</p><p>When we break universal rules, we suffer. Simple as. Women especially suffer when they ignore the core principles of who we are, as many of us have been conditioned to do. Our divine feminine essence was stripped away and replaced with masculinity. We began using pharmaceuticals to control our cycles, taking on masculine roles to compete and to prove ourselves in the name of &#8216;equality.&#8217; We were told to measure ourselves against men instead of embracing the unique balance we bring to the world. And look where that has led us.</p><p>Now, women all over the world face heavy cycles that drain us to the point of needing transfusions because our bodies can&#8217;t keep up. Many endure growths that make them look pregnant negatively affecting our confidence and self-esteem, severe pain that drives us to take toxic drugs for relief, and digestive issues that leave us bloated and miserable. We&#8217;re in a constant state of chaos and imbalance, mistaking it for normalcy.</p><p>Yet, when you read the Bible, as a study book, a guide, all the answers are there! It contains wisdom for living a healthy, fulfilling life. Unfortunately, too many of us prefer to follow the words of scientists over these ancient teachings.</p><p>Indeed, the Bible is challenging to understand; it requires interpretation and reflection. I often find myself reading a passage and asking myself, &#8220;What does this really mean?&#8221;. One powerful example is in Exodus 23:25: &#8220;<em>So you shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you</em>.&#8221;</p><p>To me, this passage is clear: the higher power that created us, whether you call it God, the Universe, or Source, knows exactly what our bodies need. Following these principles leads to health, while ignoring them opens the door to disease.</p><p>When you look closely, you see that the Bible is filled with guidance that supports both physical and mental well-being. One example is the concept of rest. In Exodus 20:8-11, the Sabbath is presented as a day of rest, a time to step away from the demands of life and recharge. In today&#8217;s world, where burnout and stress-related illness are rampant, the wisdom of taking regular rest is undeniable. This isn&#8217;t just about religious observance but about valuing our need to pause, reflect, and restore balance.</p><p>Forgiveness is another powerful teaching. In Ephesians 4:31-32, we&#8217;re encouraged to &#8220;put away bitterness, wrath, anger, and slander&#8221; and to &#8220;be kind and tender-hearted, forgiving one another.&#8221; Holding onto anger and bitterness can affect our bodies just as much as our minds. When we embrace forgiveness, we often find a release from internal burdens that can translate into physical relief and emotional freedom. Science even supports this, showing that forgiving others can lower stress levels and improve mental health.</p><p>And then there is inner peace, emphasised in scriptures like Philippians 4:6-7, which encourages us to let go of worry and &#8220;let the peace of God&#8230;guard your hearts and minds.&#8221; Inner peace isn&#8217;t just a concept but a path to well-being. When we free ourselves from constant worry and align ourselves with a higher purpose, we create space for healing on every level.</p><p>For those open to it, I invite you to look at the Bible not as a rulebook but as a guide. Explore these principles yourself. You don&#8217;t have to accept everything, take what resonates. Consider it another lens through which you can view health, not just in body but in spirit. When we start seeing health as something that encompasses our entire being, we may find the path to true healing.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Are We High-Frequency Beings

Well, join the club. Many people experience these effects, and they&#8217;re more significant than you might realise. We are high-frequency beings by nature, but we live in a world that often bombards us with low frequencies. This constant exposure to low vibrational influences can deeply impact our emotional, mental, and even physical well-being.</p><p><strong>The Source of Low Frequencies</strong></p><p>Our environment is saturated with low-frequency inputs, and they come from several everyday sources:</p><p><strong>Media and Entertainment</strong></p><p>Violent films, horror movies, and shows filled with conflict are common in today's entertainment landscape. These kinds of media not only invoke fear, anxiety, and aggression but also affect our subconscious minds. According to Dr. Bruce Lipton, our subconscious processes most of the information we consume, and repeated exposure to violent or fearful stimuli can condition our bodies to stay in a state of stress.</p><p><strong>The News</strong></p><p>Constantly watching negative news can create a feedback loop of stress and hopelessness. Caroline Myss talks about how our bodies respond energetically to everything we ingest, not just food but information too. News channels are designed to grab our attention, often by highlighting the most fear-inducing, anxiety-triggering events around the world. This persistent negativity can lead to chronic stress, which negatively affects the immune system, sleep patterns, and overall mental health.</p><p><strong>Social Media and Comparison Culture</strong></p><p>Social media platforms, while offering the potential for connection, are often filled with curated perfection. This creates a culture of comparison and can lower our vibration by creating feelings of inadequacy, envy, and dissatisfaction. Tony Robbins explains that the emotional states we cultivate become habits, and if we are not conscious, social media can perpetuate a cycle of negative emotions that can deplete us energetically.</p><p><strong>Toxic Environments and Relationships</strong></p><p>Beyond media, toxic environments, including workspaces filled with stress, high pressure, and negative colleagues also emit low vibrations. Being surrounded by people who are constantly pessimistic or emotionally draining affects our personal frequency. Bruce Lipton emphasises that the energy of our environment significantly impacts our biology and genetic expression, meaning our cells respond to the low vibrations around us.</p><p><strong>The Impact on Our Health</strong></p><p>When we're continually exposed to these low-frequency environments, it doesn't just affect our mood, it affects our whole being.</p><p>- Emotionally, we may find ourselves feeling anxious, depressed, or even angry for no apparent reason.</p><p>- Mentally, this exposure can lead to clouded thinking, lack of focus, and chronic stress. Our subconscious beliefs&#8212;often shaped by the media and people around us&#8212;directly influence our mental state and perception of the world.</p><p>- Physically, low-frequency energies can manifest as weakened immunity, disrupted sleep, fatigue, and even chronic conditions. Caroline Myss points out that the energetic body impacts the physical body, and holding on to low-vibration emotions like fear and anger can manifest in physical ailments over time.</p><p><strong>The Shift Toward High-Frequency Living</strong></p><p>While many of us focus solely on physical aspects of healing, like diet and exercise, it is becoming increasingly evident that we must also be mindful of the energetic and emotional aspects of our health. Consuming high-frequency content, practising gratitude, listening to balancing frequency tones, spending time in nature, and engaging in deep, meaningful relationships all contribute to raising our vibration.</p><p>Tony Robbins often says, "<em>Where focus goes, energy flows</em>." If we only focus on healing through physical means, we're ignoring the powerful impact of our emotional and energetic environment. By consciously choosing higher vibrational experiences, like uplifting music, positive relationships, and mental practices like meditation or affirmations, we can help align our entire being for better health and well-being.</p><p>It's time we recognise that healing isn't just about what we eat or how we move; it's also about what we think, feel, and expose ourselves to. We are high-frequency beings, and by choosing higher frequencies, we align ourselves with the health, vitality, and happiness that is our natural state.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blood as an Electromagnetic Fluid: A Metaphysical Perspective]]></title><description><![CDATA[In the previous article, we explored blood as

the vital life force that flows through our veins, sustaining every part of our body. We discussed its components&#8212;red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets&#8212;and how they are essential for oxygen transport, immune defence, and clotting. Now, we are diving a bit deeper, beyond the physical and into the esoteric and metaphysical properties of blood and the electric-like qualities that may be present within us.</p><p><strong>The Bridge Between the Physical and the Energetic</strong></p><p>From an esoteric perspective, blood is more than just a carrier of oxygen and nutrients; it is a conductor of life force or spiritual energy. In ancient traditions, blood has always held a special significance. It is often seen as the vessel of the soul or life essence, and this resonates with the biblical verse in Leviticus 17:14: &#8220;<em>For the life of every creature is its blood: its blood is its life</em>.&#8221;</p><p>Beyond its material components, blood may also play a role in the flow of vibrational energy through the body. Just as blood carries oxygen to sustain your organs, it may also carry a form of energetic frequency that connects the physical body with the spiritual self. This view suggests that blood is an electromagnetic fluid, capable of conducting not just electricity through electrolytes but also spiritual energy. This subtle energy could be what some traditions refer to as prana, chi, or the vital life force.</p><p><strong>The Electric-like Properties of Blood</strong></p><p>In scientific terms, blood's electric properties come from the electrolytes it contains&#8212;ions like sodium (Na&#8314;), potassium (K&#8314;), calcium (Ca&#178;&#8314;), and chloride (Cl&#8315;). These ions allow blood to conduct electricity, a property that enables tools like ECGs (electrocardiograms) to measure the heart's electrical activity.</p><p>However, if we expand our view into the metaphysical, the concept of blood as an electromagnetic fluid becomes even more fascinating. Blood, with its electrolytes and charged particles, might not only carry electrical currents in the physical sense but also be a conduit for subtle energy flows in the body. These energy flows are what bio-resonance seeks to measure and interact with.</p><p><strong>Fine Tuning the Frequencies of the Body</strong></p><p>Bio-resonance technology is based on the idea that every cell, organ, and tissue in the body emits its own vibrational frequency. When the body is healthy, these frequencies are in harmony. However, illness or emotional imbalance can cause these frequencies to become distorted or disharmonious.</p><p>From a metaphysical perspective, bio-resonance could be seen as a tool that interacts with the body's energy field, detecting imbalances not just in the physical body but also in the emotional and spiritual realms. The body&#8217;s natural electromagnetic field, influenced by the subtle electrical properties of blood, can reveal deep insights into one&#8217;s overall well-being. By detecting these disruptions, bio-resonance aims to restore balance, allowing the body's natural healing energies to flow freely once more.</p><p>Bio-resonance isn&#8217;t just about tuning into physical markers like haemoglobin or platelet levels&#8212;it&#8217;s about bringing your body back into harmony with its natural frequencies. This aligns with esoteric concepts of chakras (energy centres) or meridians in the body, which are thought to govern the flow of energy through your system.</p><p><strong>Blood as a Spiritual Conduit</strong></p><p>From a more esoteric perspective, we might consider that the electrical and vibrational properties of blood allow it to serve as a spiritual conduit. Some ancient traditions believe that blood is not only necessary for physical survival but also serves as a bridge between the body and the soul. The electromagnetic properties of blood, therefore, could be the key to understanding how our physical, emotional, and spiritual selves are interconnected.</p><p>In this view, disruptions in the electromagnetic field of the blood could affect not just our physical health but also our emotional and spiritual well-being. If blood is the carrier of both life force and vibrational energy, then balancing its electrical and energetic properties could lead to holistic healing&#8212;aligning body, mind, and spirit.</p><p><strong>A Metaphysical Lens on Health</strong></p><p>Health, when viewed metaphysically, isn&#8217;t just about the absence of disease. It's about being in vibrational harmony with your own body, the environment, and the universe. When our blood and its electromagnetic frequencies are balanced, the life force flows freely, and we experience physical vitality, emotional stability, and spiritual clarity.</p><p>By using bio-resonance as a tool to detect and restore these frequencies, we could be engaging in more than just a physical healing process. We might be realigning our entire energy field, allowing the subtle vibrations of blood, body, and soul to come back into harmony. In this sense, bio-resonance becomes a means of spiritual attunement.</p><p>Just as blood is the <em>physical lifeblood</em> of the body, it may also carry the spiritual frequencies that link us to higher consciousness, so when we look at blood from this perspective, it becomes clear that losing it in the form of menstruation, whether mild or excessive could be considered very unhealthy.</p><p><strong>Disclaimer:</strong></p><p>This article explores esoteric and metaphysical concepts surrounding blood and bio-resonance, which extend beyond conventional scientific understanding.

and tissue. As it says in Leviticus 17:14, &#8220;<em>For the life of every creature is its blood: its blood is its life.&#8221; </em>This verse reminds us of just how vital our blood is to our existence. While it&#8217;s incredibly complex, let&#8217;s break down the most essential components and understand why they&#8217;re important&#8212;especially when we talk about women&#8217;s health and heavy menstrual bleeding.</p><p>Blood contains several crucial elements, but we&#8217;ll focus on the three major players: red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.</p><p><strong>Red Blood Cells (RBCs)</strong></p><p>These cells are your body&#8217;s oxygen carriers. They transport oxygen from your lungs to every part of your body and carry carbon dioxide back to the lungs for you to exhale. When your RBC count is low, or your haemoglobin levels drop (which can happen with significant blood loss), your body gets less oxygen, leading to feelings of fatigue, weakness, and in severe cases, dizziness or shortness of breath. Think about the toll this can take during menstruation when heavy bleeding results in a constant reduction in RBCs and haemoglobin levels.</p><p><strong>White Blood Cells (WBCs)</strong></p><p>White blood cells are your body&#8217;s defence system. These are the soldiers that protect you from infections, viruses, and harmful invaders. A low white blood cell count can compromise your immune system, making you more susceptible to getting sick. While WBC levels typically don&#8217;t fluctuate drastically during menstruation, if you&#8217;re already dealing with a weakened system, it can make recovery from illness harder.</p><p><strong>Platelets</strong></p><p>These are the clotting agents in your blood. When you get a cut, platelets come together to form clots and stop bleeding. They are crucial for wound healing and to prevent excessive blood loss. However, during menstruation, if your body is already low on platelets, it can lead to heavier or prolonged bleeding, creating a vicious cycle.</p><p><strong>The Impact of Heavy Menstruation</strong></p><p>When your period is heavy, it&#8217;s not just blood you&#8217;re losing. You&#8217;re also losing key nutrients like iron, ferritin, and other vital minerals that keep your body functioning optimally. This depletion can lead to iron deficiency, where your RBC count and haemoglobin levels drop. You&#8217;ve probably heard of iron deficiency anaemia, which is often a direct result of prolonged or heavy menstrual bleeding. Anaemia can leave you feeling drained and even affect your heart, as it works overtime to compensate for the lack of oxygen in your blood.</p><p>It&#8217;s not just about feeling tired either&#8212;heavy blood loss over time can impact your quality of life in serious ways. When your iron stores (ferritin) get depleted, you might also notice your skin losing its glow, your hair thinning, and your nails becoming brittle. These are signs your body is running low on essential nutrients because of heavy blood loss.</p><p><strong>How Bio-resonance Can Help You Take Charge</strong></p><p>Thankfully, there&#8217;s a way to get a clearer picture of what&#8217;s happening inside your body. You may have heard about bio-resonance technology, a tool that can help assess your body&#8217;s inner workings&#8212;think of it as a modern way to check your Complete Blood Count (CBC) without needing to go to the lab for a blood test. With bio-resonance, you can gain insights into your red blood cell count, white blood cells, and even your platelet levels, giving you a snapshot of what&#8217;s going on with your health.</p><p>Instead of waiting until symptoms get worse, having the ability to scan your own body empowers you to check what is happening internally on a regularly. You can use this tool to monitor your haemoglobin levels, ferritin stores, and other markers such as gut function, nutritional analysis, hormones, heart function and so much more. This way, you&#8217;re not just guessing why you feel exhausted or why your hair is thinning&#8212;you&#8217;re getting answers.</p><p><strong>Your Blood Is Precious</strong></p><p>Blood is precious, not only in the spiritual sense but in the physical sense as well. The Bible often reminds us of the value of blood, symbolising life and health. In fact, our well-being is tied so closely to the health of our blood that taking care of it is an act of self-love and respect for the body we&#8217;ve been given.</p><p>If you&#8217;ve been feeling the impact of heavy menstruation&#8212;whether it&#8217;s constant fatigue, hair loss, or just feeling out of sync with your body&#8212;there&#8217;s a solution. With the help of advanced technology like bio-resonance, you can learn exactly what&#8217;s happening with your body and get the knowledge you need to make the best decisions for your health and your life.</p><p>Book a demo to see how this cutting-edge technology can help you gain the insights needed for better health. Understanding what&#8217;s happening inside your body is the first step toward feeling more energised, balanced, and in control. Your blood is your life&#8212;take care of it so it can take care of you.</p><p>Use this link to book <a href="https://tinyurl.com/mrxnyf">https://tinyurl.com/mrxnyf</a><a href="https://tinyurl.com/mrxnyfz5">z5</a> and mention you are booking a demo.</p><p></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[How To Activate Your Body's Internal Pharmacy]]></title><description><![CDATA[Many of us do not realise the incredible power within our own bodies&#8212;the ability to heal and maintain health without medication.]]></description><link>https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/how-to-activate-your-bodys-internal</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/how-to-activate-your-bodys-internal</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Valerie-Yamina Bey]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jul 2024 09:56:18 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!brKW!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F80449ea9-b1e8-48f2-bf56-91a6d0894eda_612x386.jpeg" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many of us do not realise the incredible power within our own bodies&#8212;the ability to heal and maintain health without medication. Our bodies are equipped with an internal pharmacy, a sophisticated system designed to repair and regenerate. When we tap into our healing mechanism, we can significantly enhance our health and well-being. However, it&#8217;s also important to acknowledge that there are instances where medical intervention might be necessary, such as when fibroids grow large enough to impact the functioning of other organs. Understanding when to seek medical help and when to rely on our body's natural healing abilities is key to having the health many of us seek.</p><p><strong>The Power of Self-Healing</strong></p><p>The concept of self-healing is not new; it has roots in ancient healing traditions and modern science alike. Our bodies possess a remarkable capacity to recover from injuries, fight off infections, and maintain balance. This intrinsic ability is orchestrated by the immune system, which operates like a highly efficient pharmacy, dispensing natural remedies as needed.</p><p>When we cut ourselves for example, our body immediately springs into action. Blood vessels constrict to reduce bleeding, platelets form a clot, and white blood cells rush to the site to fight infection. This process happens without any conscious effort on our part. Similarly, when we rest, eat nutritious food, and manage stress, we are essentially fuelling our internal pharmacy, allowing it to perform at its best.</p><p><strong>The Role of Lifestyle in Self-Healing</strong></p><p>Adopting a lifestyle that supports our body's natural healing processes can lead to major improvements in our health.</p><p>The following 4 suggestions are things you know about. None of them are new concepts. They are the basic foundations of optimum health. That said, many of us struggle just doing these!</p><p><strong>Nutrition</strong>: Eating a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats provides the essential nutrients our body needs to repair and regenerate. Certain foods, like berries, nuts, and leafy greens, are particularly potent in boosting the immune system.</p><p><strong>Exercise</strong>: Regular physical activity improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and strengthens the cardiovascular system. It also releases endorphins, which enhance mood and overall well-being.</p><p><strong>Sleep</strong>: Quality sleep is critical for cellular repair and cognitive function. During deep sleep, our body releases growth hormones that aid in tissue growth and muscle repair.</p><p><strong>Stress Management</strong>: Chronic stress can weaken the immune system and disrupt bodily functions. Practices such as meditation, yoga, and deep-breathing exercises can help manage stress levels and support overall health.</p><p><strong>When Medical Intervention is Necessary</strong></p><p>Yes, embracing our body's self-healing capabilities is empowering, it&#8217;s important to recognise when medical intervention is required. Conditions like large fibroids, which can impact the functioning of other organs, necessitate professional treatment. Fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus that can cause significant discomfort and health issues. When they grow large enough, they can press against the bladder, intestines, and other organs, leading to pain and other complications.</p><p>In such cases, medical treatments such as medication, non-invasive procedures, or surgery may be necessary to alleviate symptoms and restore health. The key is to balance self-care with professional medical advice, ensuring that we do not overlook serious conditions that require intervention.</p><p><strong>Taking Responsibility for Your Health</strong></p><p>One of the most transformative steps towards better health is taking responsibility for our own well-being. This means tuning in by listening to our body, and seeking professional help where necessary. By doing so, we move away from a victim mentality and become active participants in our health journey.</p><p>Empowering ourselves with knowledge about nutrition, exercise, and stress management allows us to harness the full potential of our internal pharmacy. It also help us prevent health issues from becoming chronic and reduces the risk of diseases affecting our quality of life.</p><p>Our bodies are incredibly resilient and capable of remarkable healing, given the right conditions. By nurturing our internal pharmacy through healthy lifestyle choices and recognising when to seek professional help, we can achieve a harmonious balance that promotes lasting well-being.</p><p>Always remember this&#8230;</p><p>You already hold the keys to your health.</p><p>Embrace it, and witness the positive impact it can have on your life.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

read &#8220;the exact cause of fibroids is unknown.&#8221;</p><p>We know that fibroids are a &#8216;typical&#8217; or &#8216;common&#8217; uterine issues for women of reproductive age, usually around 35 to 55. This shows just how prevalent this condition is, not to mention how debilitating these tumours can be to one's whole life.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">If this article stirred something in you, share it, and follow me on Substack for more truth-telling on fibroids and personal power.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p>Medical professionals who do not have the first clue about the origins of fibroids can only ever treat the fibroids &#8211; which are symptoms of a deeper underlying issue. So like most chronic health conditions, the root cause is never treated, only the presenting symptoms.</p><p>In a previous <a href="https://wombmanwisehealth.substack.com/p/healing-the-wounded-womb-ancestral">article</a>, we discussed ancestral trauma and how letting go of the horrors of the past so we can reclaim our divine feminine ties in with the metaphysics of fibroids and how masculinity replaced femininity.</p><p><strong>The Metaphysical Root of Fibroids</strong></p><p>Fibroids are not just a physical ailment but a manifestation of a much deeper, metaphysical imbalance. According to metaphysical healers and authors like Louise Hay (RIP), fibroid tumours are a blow to the feminine ego. It is also suggested that these growths symbolise &#8220;unexpressed creativity&#8221; and represent a deep-seated rejection of the feminine principle.</p><p>This rejection can stem from various sources, such as societal pressures, generational trauma, and personal experiences of varying degrees. Women are constantly bombarded with messages that undermine their worth and push them to conform to a patriarchal mould. This suppression of the feminine essence leads to an energetic imbalance that can manifest as physical conditions, like fibroids.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Want to learn the truth about Fibroids?

When women disconnect from their innate creative energy, it leads to stagnation and blockages. This is not just about artistic creativity but the ability to create life, to nurture, and to embody the divine feminine in all its forms. The womb is not merely a reproductive organ; it is the centre of a woman&#8217;s power and essence.</p><p>Energetically, fibroids can be seen as a physical manifestation of unresolved emotions, particularly those related to rejection, unworthiness, and fear. When these emotions are not acknowledged and processed, they can accumulate in the body, leading to various health issues. In the case of fibroids, the womb becomes a storage place for these unexpressed emotions and energies.</p><p><strong>Rejection of the Feminine Principle</strong></p><p>The modern world often rejects the feminine principle, valuing masculine traits such as logic, competitiveness, and dominance over feminine traits like intuition, compassion, and collaboration. This societal imbalance forces women to suppress their natural inclinations and conform to a masculine standard to succeed.</p><p>This suppression leads to an internal conflict where the feminine essence is not allowed to flourish. Women begin to live in a state of survival rather than expression, constantly battling feelings of inadequacy and fear. This internalised rejection of the feminine can manifest physically as fibroids, symbolising the battle wounds of this ongoing struggle.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-metaphysics-of-fibroid-tumours/comments&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Leave a comment&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/the-metaphysics-of-fibroid-tumours/comments"><span>Leave a comment</span></a></p><p><strong>Breaking Free: Healing the Feminine Wound</strong></p><p>To heal from fibroids, it is essential to address not only the physical symptoms but also the energetic and emotional root causes. This involves reclaiming the feminine principle in all its glory and allowing oneself to fully express and embody it. Here are some steps to consider:</p><p><em>Be Creative:</em> Engage in activities that allow for creative expression, whether it&#8217;s through art, writing, dance, or any other form of creation. This helps in reconnecting with the feminine essence.</p><p><em>Emotional Release:</em> Practice techniques like journaling, meditation, and therapy to process and release suppressed emotions. Acknowledging and letting go of past traumas is vital for true deep healing.</p><p><em>Self-Love and Acceptance: </em>Learn to love and accept who you are. Reject the societal pressures to conform and embrace your unique feminine energy. Affirmations and positive self-talk can be powerful tools in this process.</p><p><em>Balance the Energies: </em>Work towards balancing the masculine and feminine energies within yourself. This doesn&#8217;t mean rejecting masculinity but integrating both aspects harmoniously.</p><p>For women ready to heal not only physically but also emotionally, I offer a unique 1:1 holistic experience called the Fibroid Prevention Blueprint&#8482;. This transformative journey focuses on the employs five Healing Mechanisms to address the root causes of fibroids. Through this personalised approach, women can reconnect with their inner wisdom process and release deep-seated emotions, and ultimately, reclaim their divine power. By embracing these healing practices, we pave the way for a healthier, more balanced future, honouring the divine feminine in all its forms. </p><p>The metaphysical aspect of fibroid growth challenges us to look beyond the physical symptoms and address the deeper, energetic imbalances. It calls for a radical reclaiming of the feminine principle, urging women to step into their power and live fully in expression of who they truly are. By doing so, we not only heal ourselves but also pave the way for future generations to live in a world that honours and values the divine feminine.</p><div><hr></div><h3>If this resonated, here are three powerful articles to explore next:</h3><ul><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/christ-consciousness-reality-and?r=3nyazg">Christ Consciousness &amp; Reality</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/are-we-high-frequency-beings-living?r=3nyazg">Are We High&#8209;Frequency Beings?</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-metaphysics-of-fibroid-tumours?r=3nyazg">A Metaphysical Perspective on Fibroids &amp; Healing</a></p></li></ul><p>This space is where I teach the real truths about fibroids, womb health, and healing: the things women are never told.

They make our lives miserable. Our cycles unbearable. And makes us ashamed of our body.</p><p>Yes, for women who have fibroids, they make life intolerable, almost impossible.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Subscribe to stay in the know about the underlying causes of fibroids.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p>Many of us who have them suffer daily to the point where we feel the only solution is to have one of the most scared parts of us removed altogether.</p><p>But, have you ever thought there might be a deeper meaning? Crazy notion right?</p><p>Louise Hay in her book Heal Your Body, says that fibroids are &#8216;a blow to the feminine ego&#8217; and &#8216;nursing a hurt from a partner.&#8217; This makes sense if you look at fibroids holistically. Let me share with you what I mean.</p><p>For years, since my earlier 20&#8217;s I suffered. I won&#8217;t go into detail but just know it got so bad that eventually, I had two surgeries (my womb is still with me).</p><p>Despite being a fully qualified healing professional, I didn&#8217;t have a clue how to deal with fibroids.</p><p>So I suffered. In silence. Like most women.</p><p>7 years ago, I had enough. I did everything I could to research why women, esp. Indigenous/ Aboriginal/ Moorish women suffered more so than any other culture. My research showed the same thing over and over and over again: Toxicity, stress, poor diet, imbalances, hereditary weaknesses and nutritional deficiencies. I also discovered a lot about natural healing and why many women who went natural eventually gave up.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/fibroids-the-unexplored-meaning?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/fibroids-the-unexplored-meaning?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>A pattern emerged and I could see it clearly. I wanted them to know. I felt compelled to share what I had found. In fact, I felt it was my duty to pass on this knowledge.</p><p>Little did I know that my own journey would lead to the founding of my practice Womb-wise Health. I began speaking to groups of women who were hungry for the information. Many did not want to lose their wombs, esp. Indigenous women and wanted to know how to heal themselves using what Our Creator/ Most High/ Universe gave to us.</p><p>Some took the information and ran with it. The majority however, went on to have surgery. It was a crushing blow. I had let my people down. I could not understand what had happened. Everything I spoke about I did myself and it worked so why weren&#8217;t others having the same results?</p><p>I faded into the background. I still had my own healing to do.</p><p>For as long as I can recall, I&#8217;ve had this &#8216;urge&#8217;. I didn&#8217;t know what it was but it was there. It never left no matter how much I tried to ignore it. Actually, I don&#8217;t think it liked being ignored!</p><p>My life was in tatters.</p><p>I was a highly qualified woman who went from working in corporate banking earning between &#163;6-7k per month to low paid mediocre jobs. I was bored. I wanted a career that had meaning. A life were I could wake up every day knowing I had made a difference. Like most people, I had a job because I had bills to pay.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/fibroids-the-unexplored-meaning/comments&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Leave a comment&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/p/fibroids-the-unexplored-meaning/comments"><span>Leave a comment</span></a></p><p>I began questioning if this was what life was all about, and if so, why the heck was I born into a life where I was just existing?</p><p>I hated myself. I hated my body. I hated the horrific cycles. I was angry, irritable and impatient. Life was crappy.</p><p>I spiralled into a deep depression. I couldn&#8217;t make sense of anything. I tried so hard to make my health practice work. I so wanted to help people but could barely help myself. No wonder it never really took off!</p><p>All the stress and feeling trapped in a life that was going no where took its toll on my health. My fibroids grew and grew to the point I was 24 weeks in gestation (that&#8217;s what the gynaecologist reported in his letter to my doctor).</p><p>When I reached my ENOUGH, I called out to the universe &#8216;Whatever this is, I am ready to let it go&#8217;. That day my solution came in the form of two yoga practices. Over the next few days, I released what I could only think was stored emotions in my body. The most noticeable thing? Anger. So much anger came forth that I could not control. It was like someone else had taken over my body.</p><p>I felt an energetic shift. I&#8217;d never felt anything like it before. A few months later my cycles stopped completely. Granted, this could have been the menopause but that September I remember with crystal clarity&#8230;I felt my cycle was saying goodbye.</p><p>Since then, my intuition, the inner knowing has got stronger and stronger. I call it Feminine Intelligence. Its a power that all women have.</p><p>This is what divine wisdom was trying to show me. She is the one who has been banging on my door since my late teens. She&#8217;s been telling me to wake up and learn the truth.</p><p>Women who have been trying to get their fibroids under control naturally but fail is because their Feminine Intelligence is trapped. Their source of power (the womb) cannot come forth because the fibroids get in the way and because they are sending an energetic &#8216;hate&#8217; message to their body. If you have ever heard the saying &#8216;what you think about comes about&#8217;, well...its true.</p><p>We are energetic spiritual beings. We resonate. We vibrate. We have frequency. If the frequency of your body is dialled into negativity, that is what you&#8217;ll resonate.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.beyondfibroids.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p>That is exactly what I resonated back then, hence why small children never wanted to be near me. On buses they would cry when sat next to me. They never smiled at me. They pulled away or turned their face because they didn&#8217;t want to look at me. At the time, I had no idea why. Now, things have totally changed. A child will smile. They will sit next to me without fuss. They will smile if I pull a funny face at them. They&#8217;ll wave if I wave at them.</p><p>If you ever want to know the frequency you are emitting, check in with how people or animals react to you. They&#8217;ll always reflect back what you are resonating.</p><p>Fibroids are the feedback of everything that has happened, is happening and all that has not happened with your life.</p><p>Fibroids are not your enemy. They are trying to communicate with you. They are there to remind you of your unfulfilled potential. They are your legacy of an inner desire, a desire that&#8217;s been squashed and oppressed. Its your fore-mothers and fathers calling out to you to awaken from the generational curse that was placed upon us. They are calling out to you to stand in your power...because you are powerful, whether you believe that or not.</p><p>The world needs healing and the only way this can happen is for you to heal yourself first.</p><p>For the women who let go of their womb and mourn her loss, connect to her spirit. Apologise for letting her go. You did what you felt was necessary at the time. Cry as much as you want if that is what feels right. Being angry with the one who persuaded you to have the procedure is not going to help you connect with her spirit. Have a ceremony or build an altar for her. Do some forgiveness work for her and for yourself.</p><p>There is no scientific evidence for any of this. Its not required. You cannot hypothesise or theorise intuition. Its innate. A knowing. A deep feeling. Its not something that can be quantified or measured in a science lab.</p><p>Actually, I lied! There is scientific evidence. Its called Psychoneuroimmunology. In her best selling book &#8216;Molecules of Emotion&#8217;, author Candace Pert states that &#8220;<em>The body is the unconscious mind. Repressed traumas caused by overwhelming emotion can be stored in a body part, thereafter affecting our ability to feel that part or even move it</em>." She also states the following: &#8220;<em>Your body is your subconscious mind. Our physical body can be changed by the emotions we experience</em>." This means that what we think or feel can affect us physically.</p><p>The rise of powerful women cannot be stopped. Why?</p><p>Because the world we live in cannot continue as it is.</p><p>Its time to break free of the invisible chains that have kept us shackled to a mediocre life putting up with things we thought we had no power to change.</p><p>As a collective (like the Borg in Star Trek), we have power. Recall the words of Caesar in Planet of the Apes &#8220;apes together strong&#8221;, meaning that together the apes in the movie were stronger.</p><p>Now translate that to us, the original people.</p><p>Why do you think the &#8216;powers that be&#8217; have invested so much time effort and energy into keeping Indigenous/ Aboriginal/ Moorish people oppressed? Forever trapped in the cycle of isms and schisms that btw, are old, outdated, keep us in a state of fear, weak and helpless.</p><p>You have a date with destiny. She is calling you to step into something bigger. You might not know what this looks like yet, but the key to unlocking that knowing, that yearning for something deeper, can only come forth when you decide to love yourself, and by that I mean your fibroids as well.</p><p>This is where the healing starts</p><div><hr></div><h3>If this resonated, here are three powerful articles to explore next:</h3><p>&#8226; <a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/christ-consciousness-reality-and?r=3nyazg">Christ Consciousness &amp; Reality</a></p><p>&#8226; <a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/the-metaphysics-of-fibroid-tumours?r=3nyazg">The Metaphysics of Fibroid Tumours</a></p><p>&#8226; <a href="https://beyondfibroids.substack.com/p/are-we-high-frequency-beings-living">Are We High-Frequency Beings Living in a Low-Frequency World?</a></p><p>This space is where I teach the real truths about fibroids, womb health, and healing: the things women are never told.
