There’s so much more information on how to heal your gut now than there was 20 years ago when I was healing. Despite this, cases are more complicated, people are sicker and struggle to recover.
Most treatment plans only address one aspect of health, the body, and it’s not enough.
Chat GPT can spit out the best gut protocols, but they don’t work on many people.
That’s not a reason to give up hope. It’s motivation to dig deeper. The deepest, and most lasting healing goes beyond protocols. It’s because you learn, grow and change something deep inside. It could be physical, mental or emotion.
So why is everyone stuck on protocols if they don’t work on the hardest cases?
The simple answer is they’re familiar. And familiar feels safe. But safe is not always effective. My clients who go beyond their comfort zone of safe and familiar, are the ones who do the best.
Supplement have their place but are not the whole solution. And many people react to them. If that is you, don’t worry you can still recover.
The top priority is creating a healing environment in your body, so it can do the heavy lifting of healing.
Running mineral tests has shown me that most people are too depleted or inflamed to heal. Low cellular energy (burn out) and an overactive immune system can block healing. The body spends its energy on defense and survival. Healing is on the back burner.
The first step is to become aware of what is going on in our body on the physical, mental and subconscious level. The mineral test (HTMA) helps with that. Then to identify the biggest sources of stress, be it dietary, mental, environmental, relational, energetic, emotional or subconscious.
Only when we understand the real problem of our problem can we focus on the solution. No more supplement graveyards or Google death spirals.
If you know that you have SIBO, h. pylori, yeast or parasites, the real question to ask is WHY? Why is the body too weak to defend against these common visitors? And will killing them really solve the reason that they are there?
The real work
Deep healing requires changing what is not working for us.
Some examples are releasing emotional baggage carried since childhood, self sabotage, abusive self talk, pushing past your capacity, never slowing down, limiting beliefs, bad habits or advocating for self instead of people pleasing.
An unhealthy relationship with food, erratic eating habits, overthinking, lack of faith or trust can be the reason your body doesn’t respond to healing protocols.
The best approach is to slow down, ask questions and look inside. That is where your answer lays.
And start including every part of you in the healing program. Move away from familiar protocols to get familiar with yourself.
This is not the easiest road, but the most effective and rewarding. It’s transformation, not just healing.
Finding your healing blindspots
The Four Roots holistic healing method is for those who want to go deeper, identify blind spots and navigate their resistance.
This method works with every root of self: physical, emotional, mental and energetic. While the physical is where symptoms show up, it’s highly influenced by our mental and emotional roots.
We find and remove the blocks to healing, so the body responds easily to protocols or needs no protocol at all. I have seen it happen more than once.
I created this program based on my client successes.
The structure of the 8 week program
Week 1 and 2 we look at the body.
We don’t just deal with overgrowths and infections in the gut, we look for reasons they are there. We look at diet, movement, sleep, hydration and rest. As well as inflammation, blood sugar, stomach acid, deficiencies and cortisol. We identify sources of physical stressors in daily habits and make slow, gradual changes.
Week 3 and 4 we look at the conscious mind.
Our conscious thoughts and programs create our current reality. We look at our self talk, the superego, our thoughts, beliefs and perceptions. We work with the mind to discover what stressful beliefs keep us in flight, flight or freeze, blocking our ability to recover. We look at the mind body connection and our ability to regulate our nervous system. We prepare the mental soil for the powerful subconscious work to come.
Week 5 and 6 is very powerful. We work with the unknown. We look at our subconscious mind or the emotional mind.
The deepest healing work happens here. We connect to the subconscious programing running our lives. We make the unconscious conscious, bringing important information about ourselves to our awareness. This is where the healing magic happens for most people. We rewire outdated programs created in younger years.
Difficult changes are easier to make when you see the real root of your resistance clearly.
Week 7 and 8 are for review and creating a map for moving forward
We review and cement discoveries, revisit intentions and design a path forward.
We can also explore the energetic parts of self, working with the quantum field of possibilities, setting intentions and learning to ground and protect our energy field.
I use energetic tools like chi gong and chakra balancing work.
For those not interested in energetic work, we keep working on the physical, emotional and mental roots. Whatever needs the most support from previous sessions.
Testing
The HTMA (mineral test) provides objective feedback on the state of the mind, body and subconscious. It measures how stressed or inflamed the system is and how much energy there is to heal.
The test uses a hair sample cut from the base of the head to measure immunity, hormonal balance, blood sugar, thyroid and adrenal function, state of the nervous system/metabolism, cellular health and toxic load.
This is the only test I know of that looks at the state of the nervous system.
We use this information to give the body needed support in terms of minerals and nutrients.
Hair needs to be free of color or chemical treatment for 6 to 8 weeks. Colored hair needs to grow out for 6 weeks.
