Hello, I’m rhanda
When I started my health journey, I was looking for possibilities and searching for hope, stories of success. I am here to share with you my story of hope.
It was during a visit with my gastroenterologist when I heard the words “I’m putting you on a biologic. Your colitis is severe.” At the time, I was working as an infusion pharmacist, dispensing the very medication I was being prescribe. I’m usually ok with taking medication. However, this time was different. I will always remember my body’s response to hearing those words from my gastroenterologist. My body suddenly became tense, almost frozen. My instinct, my intuition, and my body was screaming; “This is not the answer!”
This was the beginning of my journey of the impossible. A successful journey of healing.
Being a pharmacist, it was strange to feel an unconscious, visceral response to the recommendation of starting a medication. Which made it all the more powerful. My mission was to find a way to live free of medication and free of flares. I discovered this and so much more. The phrase, “My body heals itself.” would come to me frequently. And I had faith that it would do just that.
I only needed to provide the right environment for healing.
I spent much time searching for natural ways to heal from experiencing ulcerative colitis flares. I did the research and made intentional changes to my diet, lifestyle, and mindset that was needed for healing. A lifestyle I would like to share with you. I know change can be seen as difficult. It can also be seen as adventurous and life giving. Making intentional choices throughout your everyday is key to life-giving changes. This does not have to be an isolating transition. I am walking my path of health and I invite you to walk with me.
