How Humans Heal

It just so happens that I’ve helped thousands of women to address HPV over the past 22+ years, and I’m here to share what I’ve learned with you.  

Your doctor may have told you…  

-HPV (especially the high risk types) can cause cancer 

-HPV can go away (negative on a test) on its own within 2 years (90% do) 

-Come back in 6-12 months to do another pap and see if it’s still there 

-If HPV remains or if it causes abnormal cells, your doctor will offer medical procedures to remove the cells (or part of your cervix and/or your uterus) 

What your doctor likely did NOT tell you…  

-Removing the abnormal cells (or cancer) doesn’t kill the virus – abnormal cells can recur 

-Repeat procedures can increase risk of miscarriage and other issues 

-There is no pharmaceutical/medical treatment to kill HPV 

-Most all of us have been exposed to it – that’s part of being a sexually active human 

-Stress and stressing about HPV makes you more susceptible to HPV 

-There are effective treatments for HPV and to get it to negative on your test results 

-Your cervix can heal and grow new healthy cells after abnormal cells are removed 

-It’s possible for HPV to go to negative and stay negative 

- 

And what your doctor may have told you that I have found only makes you more stressed: 

It’s your fault for being exposed to HPV by having sex 

You are human. Humans have sex. Humans get exposed to HPV (and other microbes, and emotions, and energies) when having sex.  

Whether HPV exposure causes abnormal cells or cancer is completely related to your susceptibility to the virus.  

What I do is teach you to understand what is making you susceptible to the HPV virus, and then what to do to change that situation.  

-

And it’s NOT just about taking a whole bunch of AHCC! Yes, AHCC is a mushroom extract that has been studied and shows effectiveness at improving immune function again viruses. However, I don’t suggest putting all your strategy on one supplement. And I don’t suggest taking a whole bunch of supplements for the rest of your life either. That’s not the point. 

- 

The point is…  

-Stress exposure (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, energetic, chemical, toxins) causes imbalances in your body 

-Those imbalances may include imbalanced hormones, nutrient levels, neurotransmitter levels, digestion, gut bacteria, vaginal bacteria, mindset, self-talk, energy, prioritization, etc.  

-When we are imbalanced due to stress, we become susceptible to the effects of HPV (and other viruses) 

-We need to look at you as an individual, figure out what is out of balance, and rebalance it (all).  

- 

Important notes:  

-If you have cancer cells, they must be treated by an oncologist 

-If HPV is testing positive (whether abnormal cells or not) you can take steps now to prevent it from causing abnormal cells (again) 

-It is important that you go back for a pap/colpo in the recommended time frame to make sure the protocol you are following is effective for you 

My protocol is different because it… 

-Puts the focus on you and what makes you unique 

-Helps you prioritize yourself  

-Puts you in the driver’s seat of your health and future 

-Gives your body what it needs to rebalance 

-Fends off HPV because you become healthy 

-Teaches you what your body needs in order to stay healthy going forward 

-Takes the focus off of exposure and puts the focus on what you can do to heal 

- 

It’s important that you know that my protocol… 

-Involves diet changes and nutrients using clinical nutrition doses because I’m a Clinical Nutritionist 

-Involves diet, herbs, homeopathy, peptides and other natural approaches because I’m a Naturopathic Doctor (licensed in AZ, CA, WA and CT) and Certified Professional Midwife 

-Teaches you about testing that is not available in the regular doctor’s office or lab so that we can determine what your body needs in order to heal 

-Addresses your whole body, not just your cervix or vagina 

-Addresses your whole self, not just the physical level 

-Has been used by thousands of women successfully 

-

However, if you only follow my protocol partially, or you make modifications based on what you do or don’t want to do, then the success rate decreases.  

My protocol requires that you…  

-Are willing to look at yourself, your patterns, and what makes you susceptible to HPV 

-Are willing to be with your feelings, fears, and process them 

-Are willing to prioritize yourself in terms of time, emotionally, and financially 

-Put your focus on healing, knowing yourself, and changing what is making you susceptible

As a rehab specialist, an injury skiing that wouldn’t heal, forced Irene Lyon [@IreneLyon] to consider mind-body work. That led her to become a Feldenkrais practitioner herself. Years later she found herself searching for more answers, which led her to study somatic experiences with Peter Levine.  

The premise of somatic work is - what we experience gets stuck in our tissue and the way we think and connect with people. 

Since then, she developed online programs and has helped close to 10,000 people in 90 countries learn to become their own medicine by reteaching them how to be with their body and their stress response.  

Through research of her programs, people have been able to increase self-worth, feel less isolated, and decrease a range of symptoms.  

- 

Understanding how stress gets stored in our bodies and supporting our bodies to resolve it, allows us to heal from past trauma. When stressed, we go into a freeze response to protect us. The trouble with that, is the flight or fight hasn't been resolved. Whatever emotion we haven’t been allowed (or allow ourselves) to express, can block the nervous system. That impacts the autonomic nervous – from hormones, digestion, cell cleaning mechanisms, and more.  

Depending on your history and predisposition, it will express differently in different people. It can cause anything from migraines, to autoimmunity, to anxiety and depression. The symptoms are triggered from something that occurred and you have been stuck in protection mode ever since.  

- 

In this interview Irene and I connect about skiing in the Pacific Northwest, and about having joint hypermobility. I share that a year ago, due to physical and emotional stress, I developed an inflammatory condition that required surgery. Yet still, it was clear that I also needed to address the stress in my body to truly address the root cause.  

If we never have a chance to reset from stress we were exposed to, it is stored in our bodies and can cause long-standing health issues.  

I talk about these concepts in my book – Master Your Stress Reset Your Health – so I’m so excited to dive deep in this discussion with Irene. https://www.amazon.com/Master-Your-Stress-Reset-Health/dp/1953295576  

- 

Important concepts we cover are:  

-Somatic healing involves breathwork, movement, as well as emotional processing.  

-Feeling safe is essential for healing 

-Disassociation and how to bring your attention to being in your body 

-Orient to your surroundings 

-How talking to your body brings you into connection and communication from within 

-Small, incremental steps can be used to gradually retrain the vagus nerve and stress response system 

-It’s important to individualize the approach 

- 

If you are struggling and stuck in physical and/or emotional pain, I encourage you to learn more about Irene’s programs at IreneLyon.com.

In this episode, Dr. Doni Wilson, host of How Humans Heal, describes what it takes to find the highest quality and most efficacious supplements. Dr. Doni breaks through the sales and marketing to show you behind the scenes of DoctorDoni.com and Nature Empowered Nutritionals.  

Ultimately, it’s about giving your body the nutrients, herbs and other support from nature to help you recover from depletions and disruptions caused by stress.  

We are stressed as humans. Stress decreases our ability to digest food, causes leaky gut and imbalanced gut bacteria. It also makes us susceptible to infections, including viral infections, as well as low serotonin and GABA. These can be addressed clinically with nutrients, herbs, homeopathic remedies and peptides. Hormone imbalances can also be addressed.  

- 

It is essential to use high quality supplements at effective doses. This is not something you have to figure out on your own. That would require hours and hours (years even) of research and trials. And they are not supplements you will find at the regular store. 

That’s why I do what I do. Using my training, with a doctorate degree from Bastyr University, which is not a weekend course or online training. It was a 5-year, post-graduate, in-person degree program and residency which I completed 22 years ago.   

Nor should you need to figure out what to take together or apart, or potential interactions. That’s all part of my training and continuing education. It’s also what I teach naturopathic students who train with me.  

In my case, I’ve chosen to run an online store where I can make these high-quality supplements available to you and my patients. I don’t want my suggestions or your access to be limited to certain companies determined by a distributor. I want to make it possible for you to get the products that are most effective clinically. I also want to make sure you know you can access those supplements from a trusted source. To do that, I have to research and maintain a store for you to use.  

-

The store here on my site (DoctorDoni.com) was recently updated to make it easier for you to use and to find what you need. We carry over 700 products from companies I have vetted and products I’ve tested on myself and used clinically: https://doctordoni.com/dr-donis-nature-empowered-store/

I also decided to create my own supplement company – Nature Empowered Nutritionals – so that I can offer you the supplements I recommend based on my Stress Recovery Protocol. Other practitioners who create a supplement choose based on what is easiest to formulate. I chose based on wanting you to have exactly the ingredients that I find to be most effective.  

I know it can seem too good to be true. When we are dealing with chronic illness and feeling lost in the medical system, it can be hard to believe that solutions exist. And I’m not saying this is the right fit for everyone. It is always important to know your body, your preferences, your allergies and sensitivities, and your medical history. 

- 

I absolutely believe customizing your supplement protocol based on your individual case is imperative. That’s why I offer group online programs and one-on-one consultations with me so that you can get access to the information you need, and testing to understand the imbalances in your body, so that you can pinpoint exactly what your body needs.  

It is not about taking a bunch of random supplements. It is about understanding human physiology, biochemistry, clinical nutrition, herbalism, homeopathy, and research about how to support the body to heal.  

For example, if you have elevated cortisol levels, there are specific nutrients and herbs to help bring it back down to optimal. If you have low serotonin (which we can also measure), then we know 5HTP, as a precursor nutrient, will give your body what it needs to make more. How much and when to take it, and what if you are on medications? Then you need to meet with me one-on-one so I can guide you.  

- 

I feel it is my role and purpose to provide information about the protocol I’ve identified in the process of healing by body and helping thousands of patients. That’s what my team helps me to create at DoctorDoni.com where we have lots of free resources in addition to learning opportunities and access to the highest quality and effective supplements.  

Thank you so much for your feedback, questions, and trust.  

Dr. Doni

Fatigue is not the same for everyone who experiences it. It can be a complex web of causes which requires a systematic approach in order to avoid aggravations. 

In this episode of How Humans Heal, I discuss helping patients recover from fatigue with Dr. Evan Hirsch, [@EvanHirschMD] a functional medical doctor who experienced Chronic Fatigue himself.  

He pushed aside the shame and guilt of not feeling well enough to keep up with his life and practice to identify 33 causes of fatigue. His mission became addressing those 33 causes of fatigue for himself and now thousands of other people in his online program.  

95% of people he sees have thyroid function that is not optimized. And most of them have adrenal dysfunction. And I agree – I see those same patterns in my practice.  

It’s important to address all the causes of fatigue, not just one or two, in order to achieve complete resolution. We also want to address the root, of the root, of the root, of the cause of fatigue.   

When we dig deeper, we find that stress, toxin exposure, and chronic infections need to be addressed to ultimately resolve fatigue.   

- 

As Dr. Evan explains, it often comes down to deficiencies and toxicities. Deficiencies such as nutrients, neurotransmitters, mitochondrial function and lack of good food, sleep, and movement. Toxicities such as the 500 chemicals we are exposed to before we walk out of the house. It can also be mold toxicity, tick-born infections, viruses, parasites, yeast, bacterial infections, allergens, adverse life events, negative experiences, and electromagnetic exposures.  

The body ends up shutting down in what is called the Cell Danger Response. Which is why it can feel like a pile-up of health issues and multiplying symptoms.  

Dr. Evan has figured out a 4-step process to assess and address the underlying causes of fatigue in a way that allows the body to heal most efficiently.  

It doesn’t start with detoxification. It’s important to prepare the body and carefully open the detoxification pathways so that we don’t make you feel worse in the process of addressing infections and toxins.  

- 

At the same time, it’s important to know that healing is a process of taking a few steps forward and a couple steps backwards, individualizing along the way, as we learn what your body needs in order to heal.  

As practitioners, we are really “course correctors” along the way, to guide you to know how to pivot and work through what comes up as you rebalance and heal.  

Regaining your energy is absolutely possible, and it is important to keep in mind that it will be gradual over 12 to 24 months. You have to play the long game.  

As someone who has experienced and recovered from fatigue myself, and helped thousands of patients with stress, toxins, and infections, as discussed in this episode, I can tell you that Dr. Evan’s approach makes complete sense and is extremely thorough.  

- 

If you’ve been struggling with fatigue and/or a complex health issue, I highly recommend reading his book, which he is offering as a free gift, and checking out his online program.

Is it really that important to have optimal cortisol?  

Even if your blood work says your cortisol is in the “normal” range?  

And even though you don’t have Addison’s disease or Cushing Syndrome?  

Yes! I would say a resounding yes based on all the research I’ve read and thousands of patients I’ve helped.  

Having optimal cortisol, as well as adrenaline, levels means…  

- You’re sending healthy signals throughout your body, instead of stress signals 

- You’re decreasing your risk of (over) 90% of health issues 

- You’re reversing digestive, immune, hormone and nervous system issues 

- You’re shifting your gene expression 

- You’re increasing your longevity (years of quality life) 

- You’re decreasing emotional and physical pain 

- You’re healing from past stress and trauma 

Who doesn’t want that?  

-

And yet, it is NOT what you’ll hear at the standard doctor’s appointment. Not even at an appointment with a functional practitioner, because it is not how they are trained to think or what they are trained to guide you to achieve.  

That is why I wrote the book Master Your Stress, Reset Your Health.  

It’s why I created the free online Stress Type™ Quiz to know where your cortisol level likely is at this point in time – either a bit too high or too low. https://doctordoni.com/quiz/stress-quiz/  

The 7-day SelfC.A.R.E. Stress Reset to guide you to understand how stress is affecting you and the essential initial steps to reset your cortisol (and adrenaline) to optimal. https://drdoni.lpages.co/the-7-day-self-care-reset/  

As well as the 21-day Stress Remedy Program to help you recover from stress by healing leaky gut and balancing blood sugar levels. https://doctordoni.com/product/the-stress-remedy-21-day-program/  

And the Stress Warrior Program – a 10-week group and one-on-one experiential program to guide you to implement my Stress Recovery Protocol and optimize your cortisol and adrenaline. https://drdoni.lpages.co/stress-program/ 

I wish that…  

This approach was the standard of care 

That you could order a quick home test to measure your cortisol and adrenaline 

That all practitioners understand the use of nutrients and herbs to optimize cortisol and adrenaline 

But that simply isn’t the case at this point in time.  

So, we are left to pay out of pocket, work with a practitioner (like me) to help you order a urine/saliva test to measure your cortisol and adrenaline, and wait 2 weeks for the results, then work with me – either one-on-one or in a “do it yourself” program (listed above) to help you to optimize your cortisol.  

That is currently your best option for getting your cortisol and adrenaline to optimal and resetting your health trajectory.

Dr. Sue McCreadie [@drsuemccreadie], a pediatric physician who has shifted into helping women breakthrough their health challenges, is hosting a summit called “Mama, Own Your Health” starting June 13, 2022.  

I’m honored to be a part of the Mama, Own Your Health Summit, and to share insights from the summit and from Dr. Sue’s life and career in this episode of How Humans Heal.  

- 

Originally trained as a medical doctor, Dr. Sue started learning about alternative, or what is now known as functional, medicine when she was in medical school. Ever since, she has been learning and providing support for patients in ways they weren’t receiving support otherwise.  

Meanwhile, in her own life, she struggled through multiple pregnancy losses and trying to keep up as a mom and doctor. That is until one day, her daughter inspired her to think outside the box and realize that women need her help to recover from stress, grief and trauma.  

- 

As Dr. Sue says, stress affects us not just on a physical level, but also an emotional and spiritual level. And it leads to so many health issues, including fatigue, burnout, hormone and digestive issues, weight gain, and more. 

Once she realized that her personal experience recovering from health challenges in her own life could help other women too, she decided to create the Mama, Own Your Health Summit, to share valuable information from herself and other practitioners.  

- 

If you’ve been hoping to find and needing inspiration and encouragement to change your life and health, this may be the perfect place to start (or continue).  

Sign up for the summit here: https://bit.ly/NSowsS 

Often it is what we decide when pushed to our limit. And it all starts with a decision to simply jump in and start somewhere.  

Most importantly, it is by loving, forgiving and accepting ourselves and our experiences in life, that makes transformation possible.

After losing his wife suddenly to a rare neuro-degenerative disorder (CJD), Dr. Greg Eckel completely changed his specialty (after 20+ years in practice) to brain regeneration.  

He wrote a book – Shake it off - about an integrative approach to Parkinson’s Disease and created a program he now offers in his clinics in Portland, Oregon and Park City, Utah.  

-

All neurodegeneration is on the rise, and at younger ages. It is estimated that by 2030, 50% of all adults over the age of 65 will have some form of mild cognitive impairment.  

There are a couple medications that can decrease symptoms for some forms of dementia, but otherwise, conventional medicine has very few options to help.  

-

Dr. Eckel, on the other hand, sees dramatic changes in his patients, with the return of memory, humor and functioning.  

He sees his role and his work as helping patients to become whole again. That’s who we are – we are love and source. We leave the door open for that to occur. Separation is an illusion. 

The nervous system is able to regrow and come back online. Given the right support, our bodies (and brains) can heal. 

- 

In this episode we talk about:  

-The gut-brain connection and how important it is for healing the nervous system 

-The ecosystem in our gut is essential for our health and our neurotransmitters 

-The role heavy metals and other toxins play in neuro-degenerative conditions 

All the treatment options he uses to help heal the nervous system: PEMF, acupuncture, bio-energetic resonance, peptides, herbal therapies, stem cells, and laser therapy…

Dr. Eckel figuring out that by using a laser to activate stem cells and then to direct the cells to where he wants them to go, he is able to stimulate the growth of healthy tissue. 

He believes that the future of medicine uses frequency as medicine. Lasers use frequency. And our cells and mitochondria emit a frequency as well.  

It’s about remembering what “healthy” is. We get separated and removed from it. By reminding the body how to find balance, we promote healing. More than anything, we wants people to know that it is possible to heal from many neurodegenerative conditions. 

He offered listeners a gift of Qi Gong – which is a movement from Chinese medicine that assists with healing the brain.

I write about many of the therapies and approaches mentioned in this episode in my book, Master Your Stress, Reset Your Health.

Both of my parents have experienced a stroke in the past 1.5 years.  

And I was not prepared. That’s why I recorded this episode of How Humans Heal – to help you be prepared in case your loved one experiences a stroke.  

A stroke is when either blood clot or a bleeding blood vessel decreases blood flow to the brain. It is the 6th leading cause of death in the U.S., but a stroke doesn’t always cause death.  

For those who survive a stroke, they are likely to experience decreased mobility and long-term disability, especially when over the age of 65.  

The best outcomes occur when a person is able to get medical assistance quickly. And the brain CAN heal from a stroke. It is a slow process, but there are many ways we can support and facilitate that recovery.  

This is exactly why I want YOU to know the common symptoms of a stroke. In this episode of HHH, I share about the symptoms my father experienced, such as choking and change in behavior, and how they differed from the symptoms my mother experienced, vertigo and nausea.  

And I share about the conversations I am having with my father’s caregivers to facilitate his recovery. Plus the foods and activities I’m choosing for him.  

- 

The brain heals when we:  

-Decrease inflammation 

-Listen to music 

-Do what we love 

-Spend time with loved ones 

-Decrease stimulation 

- 

More than anything, I want to emphasize that when we are most stressed, such as when taking care of a loved one, is when it is MOST important for us to take C.A.R.E. of ourselves.  

Often when we get caught up in stress, we lose track of our own selfcare. And that’s how we end up burned out.  

I’m here to help you to recover from burnout, and to learn to be resilient to stress, because you never know when a stress or trauma is going to come along.  

We need to be prepared, recovered, and ready to respond and at the same time, keep ourselves feeling well in the process.

Dr. Sue went from working for an advertising firm in Manhattan, to completely changing her life by becoming a naturopathic doctor.  

At the same time, she faced her own chronic health challenges, including Lyme disease and severe migraines. It was by addressing a past trauma that completely changed her health. She finally understood why “she is the way she is” and how to support herself to heal.  

If you don’t remember before the age of 7, that is a sign of an early childhood trauma. Working with a shaman, she felt supported to discover the wounds that had been hiding her past. 

If we don’t know what is making us feel stuck and sick, we could be experiencing physical and emotional pain without realizing there is something we can do to change it.  

Dr. Sue processed her trauma using EMDR, EFT, cranio-sacral therapy, homeopathy, flower essences, and drainage therapy. And now Dr. Sue guides her patients to recover from their chronic illness by addressing trauma. She starts by talking through their life chronologically, looking for events and experiences that happened starting from a young age.  

- 

In this episode, Dr. Sue and I also talk about how: 

-There can be fear to do this work.  

-We tend to turn to alcohol, food, and other substances or choices in order to avoid looking at our trauma. 

-We have to feel safe to feel the feelings we haven’t felt. 

-Often, with a history of trauma, gentle approaches are better, and actually essential. 

-It is common to be so sensitive to even treatments that are helpful. 

-

When looking for a therapist to help you, it is important to choose a therapist who is trained in trauma recovery. There are many forms of therapy to help get to the core of trauma. We can recover from trauma. The nervous system can heal. It’s worth putting in the time and effort to do this work.  

-

This is such an important topic to me. In the book – Master Your Stress, Reset Your Health – I talk about the effect trauma has on our health, and how my Stress Recovery Protocol has been successful in helping me and my patients resolve trauma.  

If you don’t already have the book, I recommend reading it and reaching out to me so I can guide you to get the most out of it on your path of recovering from trauma and chronic illness.

I believe it is essential for each of you to know your stress type. 

That is one of the five stress types I have identified in my clinical experience and research.  

These stress types are based on cortisol levels – measured at four different times of day in urine or saliva – and adrenaline (norepinephrine and epinephrine) levels.  

These tests are not done in a standard doctor’s appointment. And they are not covered by insurance. Currently, these tests are available through my office for patients and program participants.  

I highly recommend it for everyone who wants to strategically resolve health concerns, prevent the need for medications, and improve your longevity. 

- 

You can also determine your stress type (a high likelihood of what it is) with the assessment in my book – Master Your Stress, Reset Your Health. Or you can use that quiz online at DoctorDoni.com/stressquiz.  

Once you know your stress type, then use the Master Your Stress, Reset Your Health book to optimize your cortisol and adrenaline levels based on your stress type.
