The Eczema Free Journey

Halloween is coming...YAY!!!

The fun costumes and seeing the kids play their favorite characters is one of my favorite times of the year!

There is one thing that makes me stressed though, and you tell me if you feel the same...

The thought of having to tell my kids no to eating candy! 

All that sugar can cause a really bad flare up, so what's a mom to do? 

Well first, a little compassion goes a long way and then we get creative! 

Tune in to today's episode for fun candy alternatives for this Halloween season! 

There are a few favorites of mine in here so please let me know which is your favorite!

Celery juice has tons of benefits, right? 

We know it's an anti-inflammatory, full of pathogen killing mineral salts and more!

So what do we do when we want to drink celery juice, but we find out we're sensitive (aka makes you go to the bathroom)?

Stopping is NOT the answer! There is a better way that allows you to get the nutrients and make sure you feel comfortable.

In today's episode I go over what adjustments you need to make as well as tips to make sure you're getting the right type of celery.

Are you struggling with feeling imprisoned as you’re trying to heal? 

You can’t eat what’s easily available, maybe going out to a restaurant takes more research than before, you find yourself feeling like you’re not able to eat the “fun” food everyone else eats. Does this sound like you? Want a solution?

Join me today as I am joined by Jade Tornquist. Jade is a world traveler, raw vegan, ESL teacher and she has healed her own chronic acne and eczema by changing her diet.

Jade shares insight on the fruit fear, the famous “where do you get your protein” question, how to make sure healing is not a punishment and my personal favorite, healing while traveling (dos and don’ts with eating street food and market foods).

Jade is passionate about helping us see how this journey isn’t about being perfect, but about taking steps and not giving up.

Eczema is very sensitive, right?

If you accidentally rub it against something you can either see stars or the intense itch begins!

Because eczema is so sensitive, could it be beneficial if we covered it?

Would it help heal?

I have first hand experience with both, with myself and my children, and I have some truth bombs to share with you!

Come see if covering your eczema is worth it and can it really help.

Have you ever wondered if going fat free could help you heal even more or even help speed up the process?

It’s something to think about, right?

What about not going completely fat free but maybe cutting down on so much fat in your diet?

I needed to get to the bottom of this and was inspired by Tara Tom’s story and fat free challenge to help us get some answers.

The Eczema Free Journey Podcast alumni, Tara Tom, has healed her eczema and is now going deeper into healing by going on a fat free diet for 2 months now. At the time of this interview, she was completing one month fat free, but it went so well she just kept going!

In today’s episode Tara goes over why she’s trying a fat free lifestyle, the benefits, how to begin and what to expect.

We’ve all heard about going fat free, but have you ever thought of how it could help you heal your eczema?

Click play to find out more and who knows...maybe this is what you’ve been looking for to take your healing to the next level!
