exquisite self care sabbatical UPDATE

20150117_170911_resized

It’s been a couple months already and I’m not back yet, but I’ve received so many emails and inquiries about how I am doing and so I wanted to share an UPDATE.

AND ITS PACKED so grab a healthy beverage and sit back and enjoy 🙂

This weekend I celebrated my 50th Birthday!!!

I allowed myself to receive so fully!

Not just the petals on my pillow as I woke (nice touch Babe!) or the gifts and cards and flowers or calls from my friends around the world…

What really touched me deeply is how much LOVE I was able to let in…

The look in my boys’ eyes as they read the homemade cards they made for me…(!!!)

The LOUD joyful birthday song at the restaurant with so much laughter and hugs and high-fives…

As you know I’ve been through a really rough patch the last few months and I wasn’t sure I was up to much of a celebration- even begging my husband NOT to throw me a huge surprise party- but it was just so perfect…

Because I felt so ALIVE and EXPANSIVE and gorgeously OPEN to LIFE…

My life is a Fairytale!

Thank you, more please ♥

EXQUISITE SELF CARE UPDATE

As I mentioned above I’m not there yet but I have made some beautiful progress!

I have been doing several key things since I got sick that have been VITAL for my healing:

1. more REST/SLEEP- no computers or other media- just quiet, getting horizontal even in the middle of the day, eyes closed, stillness.

THIS IS NATURE’S COMMAND when we are ill.

AND more SLEEP- my biggest challenge ever! I’ve never slept more than 4 hours a night and often it’s even less than that skipping falling asleep altogether…I’ve COMPENSATED for this with my HIGH-RAW/WHOLEFOODS DIET… but I feel my body really requires more sleep and I am going to be summoning the assistance of a genius ANTHROPOSOPHICAL medical doctor to investigate with me and diagnose if I have a HORMONE IMBALANCE or what is causing this chronic and acute INSOMNIA. Will share more when I can on this as I know MANY of YOU also struggle with sleep deprivation/disorders/insomnia and it is causing havoc with our health despite an excellent diet!

2. more PROTEIN- raw/vegan/cooked/vegetarian/animal- I have been experimenting with it ALL.

I am noticing my body is changing- NOTE TO SELF- Women’s bodies have NATURAL CYCLES over a lifetime and therefore their NUTRITIONAL needs etc SHIFT and we may REQUIRE to allow for dietary changes and instead of being too dogmatic, HONOUR THE NEEDS OF OUR FEMININE BODIES. My good friend and colleague author PETE CERQUA reached out to me and put me in touch with an expert NUTRITIONIST –Victoria Toujilina– on his team who had me try a PROTEIN SUPPLEMENT (I was so not open at first but am so glad I tried it!) on a REGENERATIVE PROTOCAL that she put me on that has been SUPER HELPFUL/CONVENIENT when I was too weak to do all my regular high-raw diet-

3. more MINERALS- especially MAGNESIUM for my heart- The best one I’ve ever found is my dear friend Dr Carolyn Dean’s RE-MAG and RE-LYTE MINERALS at www.rnareset.com.

This TRINITY has been INVALUABLE for me!

And so has all the LOVE, SUPPORT, TRANSPARENCY, OPENNESS, FAITH and RECEIVING I’ve been blessed with by so many of YOU!

I have also been using CHINESE HERBS working with a wonderful Chinese doctor locally specific for building up my QI and shrinking cysts.

ULTRASOUND REPORT TODAY

Today I went for a third ULTRASOUND in 4.5 months to see if what I have been doing is working or not to shrink my large OVARIAN CYST:

Ultrasound in Sept 2014- 8.8 cm

Ultrasound in Nove 2014- 9.2 cm

Ultrasound today Jan 22 2015- 8cm

It IS SHRINKING~ HOORAY!

I still have a ways to go but I am on track gently moving in the right direction, HEALING NATURALLY WITHOUT SURGERY :-))

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS AND SUPPORT, I HAVE FELT IT ALL!

TONIGHT I CELEBRATE with a soul sister I adore…

Amber Hartnell is hosting a free call with Ariel White that I am excited about and I don’t want you to miss out on HERE

p.s. 50th BIRTHDAY BRAGS!!

WARNING:

Women aren’t generally encouraged in our culture to put themselves first, go for their desires, or brag (God forbid!) about their accomplishments… we are taught to SACRIFICE ourselves, take care of EVERYBODY ELSE, and SHRINK so we never outshine others… this is the OLD PARADIGM that doesn’t serve us and we get to DELETE that outdated program and be the CREATRIX in our lives!

**BRAGGING, a feminine art made popular by beloved Mama Gena is the antidote to diminishing ourselves and all the GOOD that is in our life…I was first introduced to bragging by Mama Gena years ago but only recently have tried it, and it’s ESSENTIAL for any woman who desires to gift herself and others PERMISSION to live and love fully- and it’s also FUN, so here goes:

I brag I JUST TURNED 50!

    Shakaya, hooray for your beautiful brags, your birthday, and your healing journey. You will have so much to share with other women once you are through this. I appreciate your mention of your current dietary flexibility; I have had to experiment a lot of with my diet, no longer being vegetarian because at this time I cannot eat grains. I admire you for sharing about your dietary experiments and your openness to whatever natural approaches will restore your body.
