I have first hand knowledge that stomach pain can truly stop a person from fully enjoying life.
As a certified life coach what I know for sure is that health and happiness go hand in hand. I know that if a person is feeling great that they project that feeling out toward the world. But I also know first hand that suffering from debilitating illness of the gastrointestinal tract can interfere with both identifying and pursuing one’s dreams.
I have been a long time sufferer of acid stomach, acid reflux (GERD) and Irritable Bowl Syndrome (IBS.) In 1981 I was diagnosed as "pre-ulcerous" and with IBS. Several years later I had Acid Reflux Disease (GERD.) About five years ago I had a bout with Lactose Intolerance. My IBS is all but cured, and I have no signs of Lactose Intolerance today.
I have researched and adhered to the conventional medical field for remedies and cures for both of these common and debilitating medical problems. I have also researched and adhered to the alternative medical field for relief. I have researched diet, exercise and emotional issues in direct correlation to the gut. I have tried nearly every product and method for relief under the sun.
During these twenty seven years, I have acquired vast knowledge of not only the gut, but how a person´s entire life style and view of the world they live in plays a role in the function and health of the gut. And conversely, how a poorly functioning gastrointestinal tract can affect one´s life style and view of the world they live in.
Please know that I am not a medical doctor or a health practioner. I cannot diagnose your stomach problems nor can I guarantee a cure. I am here to share my knowledge, what has and has not worked for me and to offer suggestions of where you may go physically, emotionally and spiritually for relief and self-empowerment.
I warmly welcome all questions, comments and stories that you have to share on the topic of Stomach Issues!
