Simla’s Story :: Part 2 :: Anger & Bewilderment

Author’s note: This is the second installment in a series of articles about how I have healed from several health conditions and come to live very well with my autoimmune conditions, which are in full remission as long as I respect my triggers. The specific autoimmune conditions I will be writing about are:  fibromyalgia; undifferentiated connective tissue disorder; and, immunotoxicity. The other health conditions I will refer to in this context are:  chronic fatigue syndrome; adrenal fatigue; asthma; chronic bronchitis; pneumonia; food and environmental allergies; chronic bronchitis; multiple chemical sensitivity; lyme disease (also referred to as lyme’s disease); medication-induced hepatitis and pancreatitis; IBS; digestive issues; leaky gut; dysbiosis; candida; heavy metal toxicity, and others. While it’s personally difficult to relive a lot of this through the act of writing, I hope to provide the information and inspiration I wish I had while I was going through this life-altering experience. I write from the perspectives of a patient, a busy professional, an entrepreneur, a wife, a daughter, and as a certified health coach and nutrition expert, which is what my experience has led me to become. I’d love to hear from you if this proves helpful to you – you can email me at hello(at)enjoydelicioushealth.com.

Type A? Overachiever? Perfectionist? Psssst. Over here!

Health is multi-faceted. I believe we need to eat well and live well to be truly healthy: career or self-expression of productivity, physical movement, relationships, sense of self – otherwise known as spirit – need to be in good order for true health and wellness to manifest. Food is just one way we feed ourselves. These other parts of our lives also serve to feed us. If broken, they will drain and deplete rather than feed.

Are you a Type A overachiever? A perfectionist?

Do you drive yourself to your limits every day – mentally, physically, emotionally?
