Healing Chronic Illness with Marly

Why COMMUNITY is so important and CO-REGULATION.

Knowing who you are apart from your illness.

Stress Detox offers guided progressive relaxation and meditation.

RELEASE your EXPECTATIONS.  Forgive yourself.  Apologize to your inner child and establish boundaries so that you feel safe.  

Why we need to tune out and tune in.  Quiet your mind.  Your beliefs carry more power than your reality.  What thoughts form your reality?

Does your health not line up with your belief system?  For me this was an enormous struggle because I internalized my illness and inability to get well was due to something I may have been doing wrong or brought on to myself.  Even though being transparent was very scary to me, once I was finally able to be honest about how much I was struggling with illness, more healing came.  Being more open has helped others to do so as well, I heard, "me too" more times than I could count.  I had no idea because before I spent so much time strategizing on how I could keep up with life so that no one knew what kind of rough shape I was in.
