Rochelle's Deals For Everyone

This subject Reflexology and Chakras has come at a time, when I’m about to turn 50 years old. I didn’t reflect on that until now.

My brother and Sister in-love gifted me a full body massage for my birthday. Now, for me this is something special because believe it or not, I have never had it done. I think the thought of someone’s hands on my body kinda was a turn-off

FAst forward to today, I was taken out of my comfort zone, and I loved it.

An Experience with Reflexology

Ok, so picture walking into a hall that is not dark, but coming in from the outside gave it that appearance. Once, inside the lights were a silhouette of Green lighting. The music gave it a relaxing vibe.

My mother and I were told to go into this area that was set up in such an aesthetic manner, that I could feel the energy in the atmosphere,

I was nervous when the guy said to undress from the top down, but in my mind, I kept saying stay open-minded.

He comes back and tells me to lye down on the table on my back first. I comply and stare at the ceiling and focus on the lights and music.

As he starts his message I remind myself to relax. He started with my temples and worked himself down all the while I was meditating and feeling the energy releasing from his hand throughout my body.

As he worked on my feet, He was pressing all of the right pressure points (which is called Reflexology). Now, mind you before I came in my lower back and sciatic nerve was giving my problems.

AND THE PLEASURE CONTINUES

He went as far as to take my fingers and stretch each digit while elongating my arms to stretch them. Oh my goodness who would have thought that was a thing.

I haven’t mentioned the torso yet. He worked on my upper and lower back along with my thighs front and back. For a minute there I thought I was in a fight. He was kneading my back so firmly it almost hurt, but after I relaxed it was amazing.

Part of the time he was messaging me, I was meditating. That allowed my body to relax and my mind to go numb. I was looking for that spiritual connection.

I understand that My Chakras are off in my body and prior to this visit I didn’t know that it was that bad. Like I mentioned before the transmission of the energy from his hands to my body was energizing.

Reflexology

The study of Reflexology healing therapy is dated back to ancient Egyptians. Our feet have over 7,000 nerve endings that connect to the rest of our body along with the reflex points that correspond to multiple parts of the anatomy,

The feet represent a map of the complete body. Skilled pressure of the reflex points and different areas on the feet can help to relieve physical symptoms and stimulate the effective functioning of organs, joints and vital body systems. 

Professionals are trained to detect tension and imbalances in the feet which correspond to a particular part of the body.  Through their studies and experiences, the detection of tension as it is related to our chakras is easy to detect, hence the reason, I felt so good after my massage. Positive energy flow is immediately restored, Continuous therapies such as this can become a good preventative measure.

Chakras

First lets start off with what is a chakra? Chakras are energy centers in our body that helps regulate all of its processes like organ function, emotions as well as our immune system.

A notable mention that there are 12 Chakras strategically position throughout our bodies. I’m only going to mention 7. Each chakras has its own vibrational frequency and has a specific colors that governs the bodily functions that help make us human.

CROWN CHAKRA

7. Crown Chakra is located at the top of the head and is represented by a purple or violet and white color. This chakra helps us with our beliefs and visions. It keeps us in touch with our true passions and life purposes.

An example of that is being in a career that you no longer love. The Crown Chakra will help you find the courage to let go of what you no longer love to do and go after those things you were born to do.

An imbalance of the above chakra look likes you are detached from your surroundings. You can’t communicate with your family or have any creative thoughts,

If it’s broken meditation almost always will get you back in touch with your conciencous. All you have to do is picture a purple and white petal as your focal point,

THE THIRD EYE

6. The Third Eye Chakra is on the forehead right smack dab between the eyebrows. It is represented by a bluish white hue or indigo. This Chakra is responsible for intuition and insight and driven by openness and imagination

An example of this imbalance is not being able to see past your daily problems and vocus on the vision you have set forth for yourself, or better yet not being able to realize a vision at all. It comes down to a lack of clarity and rejecting everything spiritual or anything other than usual.

Again meditation is the key to rediscovering the Third Eye. Silence is important to hearing what you can’t hear when there is so much noise and distractions in your environment.

THROAT CHAKRA

5. The throat chakra is located at the center of the neck right at the level of the throat and is represented with the color blue turquoise or aquamarine blue. It serves as the funnel for energy between the lower parts of the body and the head. This chakra is the the catalyst that drives expression and communication.

an example of this chakra being off is the lack of control over your speech. Meaning speaking too much or not at the right time. Another key abnormality of this chakra is not being able to listen to others along with telling lies and not being able to keep your word. However on the other hand there can be a secretivenss or shyness with a lack of connection.

SOME KEY POINTS

A couple of key points to fixing this chakra is keep hydrated, it cleanses the throat allowing the healthy energy flow.

Eating more fruit like apples lemons, limes as well as peaches to to cleanse and acxtivate the throat

Believe it or not aromatherapy can help. The smells of jasmine, rosemary as well as sandlewood can activate the energy center.

Another good exercise is just be honest and open with family and friends with heartfelt words can strengthen your throat chakra.

These popular activities can help with this chakra: journaling and singing along with humming can help activate the imbalance.

Last but not least LET IT GO. Stop holding on to things you have no control over. This behavior sets up resentment, anger and guilt. Hence, creating an imbalance,

HEART CHAKRA

4. The Heart Chakra is located in the middle of the chest just slightly left of the actual organ. This chakra is represented by the color Green, but in higher frequencies, it can show as pink. The principles of transformation and integration is the basis of this chakra is to bridge earthly and spiritual aspirations

When this chakra is not functioning properly there will difficulty with your relationship with others. There are significant signs such as jealousy, antisociable, holding grudges, feeling closed down as well as depending on others approval.

On a physical level it can manifest as lung infection, bronchitis as well as heart related issues.

However, there are several ways to strengthen this chakra. First off practice self love or self care. for intance, take a long hot bath in essential oils along with stretching your muscles. Another practice is mending old wounds in your heart. Express gratitude.

SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA

3. This Chakra is located between the navel and lower part of the chest. Which is connected to the digestive system. The color yellow or deep yellow depending on the frequency is how this chakra is represented. Consider this the energy source, that fuels your personal power as well as self esteem.

When this chakra is not intact all hell break loose in your life. The ability to be in control of your life dwindles along with your self esteem. not to mention that there will be Controlling, intolerant, or excessively competitive behavior.

More physical symptoms include: Stomach ulcers, indigestion, diabetes, eating disorders and other illnesses tied to the digestive system can also be symptoms of an unbalanced solar plexus chakra.

The easiest way to heal this chakra is to, simply get outsid. Meditating or doing yoga outdoors on sunny days will maximize your healing practice, but simply going outside for a walk or doing a little sunbathing will help open your solar plexus chakra.

Sacral Chakra

2. Sacral Chakra is housed 3 inches below the navel and at the center of your lower belly. When viewed in the back it is located at the level of the vetebrae. The color that represents this chakra is orange and represents water. This chakra is the real of our emotions. The sacral chakra is associated with the realm of emotions. It’s the center of our feelings and sensations. It’s particularly active in our sexuality and the expression of our sensus

This chakra is very important with emotional relationships. When there is an imbalance it shows up as looking like you are being ruled by your emotions along with over indulgence and or fantasies. Feeling detached and rigid in your routine to the point you’re unable ride out life’s ups and downs can be exspected.

Regularly meditating on the sacral chakra and/or the color orange can also help clear negativity and restore balance to the energy center. In addition to adopting healthy lifestyle changes, such as a healthy diet and regular exercise, incorporating some form of energy healing can be beneficial for restoring balance to the sacral chakra.

Root Chakra

1. Last but not least the first Chakra is the Root Chakra. Located at the base of the spine and is represented by a vermillion red. Dont be mislead, this chakra provides the foundation on which we build our life. It supports us in growing and feeling safe into exploring all the aspects of life.

When this chakra is off it effects us at the emtional level by way of feeling secure. So to compensate you will see excessive negativity, cynicism, eating disorders, greed as well a living in a constant survival mode.

Fixing this chakra will take some strategic work. Changing your lifestyle, For example, you can engage more in grounding and earth-related activities (for example, connection with nature, gardening, cooking healthy, hiking). The main idea for a correction is working at growing your roots in a comfortable and safe environment,

CHI

Chi is decribed as an universal energy or VITAL LIFE FORCE ENERGY.

Every living thing on this earth is made up of energy and is vibrating on different frequencies,

Yes, we get energy from from physical movement or nourshment, That energy that we recieve flows through our pathways known as CHAKRAS,

the energy that flows through the Chakra’s is the energy of life also known as a balance of Yin and Yang (positive and negative elecromagnetic energy that flows through every life form).

More about CHI

Chi can also be described as a continous flux of energy going from one aspect of chi to another. So what that means is, it is never destroyed it just changes as its manifested.

There are different energy sources that we get that coincides and flows through certain chakras. Such as the Heaven and Earth CHI. The earth Chi comes from nature ( lakes, mountains, oceans, rivers as well as trees). The heaven CHi is strictly taken in in the breath.

We have chi flowing throughout our whole entire body. This includes our vital organs. The energy that we recieved is based on our environment as a whole. And through proper diet, exercise, and meditation the energy that we recieve can flow through all of the chakras and give you a overall feel of peace, calm and healthy living.

Harmonious, balanced and free-flowing chi results in health while stagnant, blocked or imbalanced chi leads to disease.

How do we fix the imbalance

So nurturing energy through CHI KUNG can be grown and harnessed for our benefit.

Stretching techniques, breathing exercises, gentle movements, yoga along with meditation promotes healing, harmony and more over a sense of inner joy.

Healing Sounds and Meditative Techniques all help to cultivate and purify chi energy. This enables us to build strong foundations, root stability and support for ourselves which, in turn, will then enable us to more easily cultivate and hold chi energy, so that ultimately, we will become a powerful conduit for Spiritual Light.

With the practice of those techniques on a daily basis we can learn how to stay on a higher frequency and enjoy all of the pleasures of life.

Believe it or not our environment and the doses of radiation that we are recieving is blocking the good energy from flowing through our bodies. The energy from the radiation is foreign to our bodies and hence sets up sickness and disease. There is no longer pure CHi flowing through our bodies,

EMF PROTECTION

Ok, so you have read about how the energy flows through our body as well as how we recieve it and cultivate it. The missing piece is how to limit the amount radiation that your body consumes.

We are exsposed to extremely low frequency radiation as well as radio frequency, this is emitted from our cell phones almost everyday.

The effects from the radiation ranges from the inability of our cells to repair themselves, fragmented DNA as well as a precursor to cancer,

Other effects include rashes, neurological and behavioral effects, effects on fertility.

So over time, I had been searching for weight loss solutions. I have collected the top 10 best ways to lose weight.

As most people get older they tend to get less active. With the decrease of activity comes the slowing of our metabolism, which causes weight gain.

There are a dozen of weight loss remedies on the market that are placebos. The promise of losing weight without exercise or changing your diet is not a thing. Let’s begin.

Ten

The easiest way to lose weight has made number 10 and that is eating smaller portions. When you eat smaller portions more frequently it jump-starts your metabolism.

Nine

The next easiest way is to choose better food options. Although you are going to eat a smaller portion it is always good practice to incorporate fruits and vegetables with colors. Green Fruits and Vegetables Boost the Immune System while restoring energy and vitality as well as detoxifying the body.

Blue and Purple Fruits and Vegetables get rid of unwanted inflammation, fight cancer along with Help Keeping You Young.

White and Brown Fruits and Vegetables help keep bones strong and also have some properties that Protect Against Certain Cancers, and moreover are A Heart-Healthy Choice.

Eight

Another easy way to lose weight is to chew your food more slowly. This allows your digestive system to work more effectively, the craving for more food decreases as well as not stretching your stomach.

Seven

Surprisingly building muscle is one of the most popular ways to lose weight. The process of muscle building (working out) burns calories which in turn burns fat. When that happens you actually burn fat while you are sleeping.

Six

Ride to work if you can. This is good for your cardiovascular system not to mention the calories that you will burn. Another caveat to that is the fresh air and sun is good for your overall well-being.

Five

How about keeping a food diary. This allows you to be aware of the food groups that you are eating as well as allowing you to control for intake of the bad stuff.

Four

Another popular way to burn calories and lose fat is interval training. That means that you mix up the speeds when you are running. run fast for a period, slow it down and rest and start it over again. This works your heart a little harder and burns burn burns.

Three

In addition to interval training, there are other aerobic exercises that can be incorporated. Squats, arm lifts, and leg lift in reps of 10 done in fast succession.

Two

So if you are a snacker instead of eating potato chips and cupcakes, choose a healthier option. Such as carrots, celery as well as cheese.

Rejuvenate and regenerate is what we need to do when we get older. The key components that keep us young have dissipated.

As we get older our skin dry’s out, our energy level is low, along with our hair and nails stop growing. When I was coming up the fountain of youth was a topic of conversation. By me being so young it seemed to be a bunch of talk from old folk….Fast-forward to today and let me tell you I unapologetically understand the struggle.

I’m watching all of these informercials offering renewed energy in a pill, laser surgery to remove the fat and not to mention all of the weight loss products being pushed. Anymore the all natural solution is not being advertised as much because there is no money in it.

Collagen

But wait, what about Collagen? It is all natural and designed to nourish our bodies on a cellular level. It is plays a big roll in strengthening the skin as well as providing elasticity and hydration. Without this protection when we get older our skin is dry and it leads to the formation of wrinkles.

Why Collagen

Collagen is viewed as glue in our bodies. It is naturally produced to support healthy hair, nails, skin, and joints. This is where our bones, connective tissues, ligaments as well as tendons get their strength and structure.

Another vital function Collagen plays in our body is that it relaxes the blood vessels to help better blood flow to promote better circulation.

However, just like with everything new as we get older we create less collagen and most importantly should be making it a part of our daily diet.

How to grow natural curly hair can be achieved with a Supreme Wash Day Kit. The maintenance system that I have found has made a difference in the texture and manageability of my Type 4B hair. The Wash day is no longer a chore.

Hair Types for Women of Color

When determining the right hair type for your hair take into account several factors that are used to consider. The three main ones are curly, straight, and wavy. The other factors to decode will be the texture, density, porosity along with the moisture retention capacity of the coil.

A notable mention, when you are looking for the best products to keep your hair healthy and moisturized those things mentioned about has to be taken into account.

There are 4 types of hair

Before getting started with the search, learn the category that your grade of hair falls under.

• Type 1 hair is characterized as straight hair with no natural curls
• With type 2 hair you will see wavy hair with no full curls and are characterized by bumps and waves.
• Type 3 looks curly and has an “S” shaped curl pattern
• Type 4 feels more coarse in texture and has a “Z” shaped patter

Types of Hair Textures for Black Women

More importantly, now is time to find out what your hair texture is. For African American women our grade is usually kinky, so we are graded as a type 4.

4A Hair Type

4A type hair is easily identifiable with its S-shaped curl pattern with spirals and has a fine or wiry texture. This type also tends to break easily because of low cuticle layers.

When looking for products to maintain this time hair, you should look for products with moisture retention such as 100% Virgin Coconut Oil along with shampoos containing Jojoba oil. It is also recommended that wash-and-go hairstyles should be utilized with curling creams, butter, and leave-in-moisturizers.

4B Hair Type

This hair type is tightly coiled and has a Z-shaped pattern. Instead of the hair strand forming a curve it has sharp bends. The texture can be fine or coarse and the curl pattern is not easily noticeable. Hair strands can be tightly coiled and densely packed.

The hair is drier than the other African American hair types and also breaks a lot easier. The shrinkage noted is 70% of its true length which makes the hair look shorter than it is.

To maintain this curl type you must use heat when you are going to do a deep condition. The reason being is on low porosity strands of hair the products sit on top of the hair because it is wound up too tight.

The heat lifts the hair cuticles and opens up space for product absorption. The most effective moisturizer should have a water-based leave-in conditioner as well as a formulation for focusing on hydration. Look for ingredients like aloe vera, Cetearyl alcohol, honey, panthenol.

The last step for this hair type is moisture and seal. Find an oil-based cream product that creates a barrier to protect the leave-in-conditioner. Also, for the last step use gels that have plant-based ingredients like flaxseeds, ginger, aloe vera, and okra and avoid tension to lessen the breakage.

4C hair type

This type of hair is more tightly coiled than 4B type hair. There is no curl pattern and tends to be more fragile. The length shrinks to 75% when not stretched out. However, the 4B style mimics this as well and the only thing that separates them is that 4C has tightly packed strands.

To prevent damage this hair type requires a lot of care. I.E. protective hairstyles.

What Products To Use for 4b type hair

Regardless of what your hair type is moisture is the key.

• Moisturize– Use castor or coconut oil before you wash your hair to give it an extra dose of moisture. 
• Condition–Don’t shampoo your hair every time you shower. Just rinsing with a conditioner might be all you need. Experiment with leave-in conditioners for long-lasting hydration. So once in a while, skip the shampooing—but feel free to keep in the shower karaoke session!
• Finger-Comb–Instead of struggling with a brush, try finger combing your hair. This will minimize breakage and frizz and keep your hair soft and supple. Additionally, you can stretch your hair out while it’s still wet to minimize shrinkage. Pop on a face mask while you’re at it for a full self-care routine!
• Style–Use protective styles like box braids and twists to keep hair secure and tangle-free.

Hair Care for 4c Hair Types

Like 4b hair, a 4c hair type needs a healthy helping of moisture to stay healthy and tangle-free. 

• Moisturize Before Styling –Wet your hair with water or mild moisturizing spray before you put it in an updo. This keeps strands pliant and decreases breakage.
• Condition –Try the LOC method (liquid, oil, cream) for prolonged moisturization. After you shower, use coconut or almond oil, followed by a natural curl cream like cocoa or Shea butter. You could also try leave in conditioner for curly hair if you don’t have time to style your hair before you leave the house.
• Wash and Condition in Sections –Instead of tackling your whole head at once, section off small areas to wash individually. This keeps tangles to a minimum and guarantees full cleansing and moisturizing.

Maintenance System that is Affordable

With this company, I have found it offers a wash day kit that will help maintain all types of hair. The products in the Joiful Bee kit include:

• Continuous Spray Bottle– The bottle is designed to moisture your hair quickly. Most spray bottles you have to pump a million types to get the desired effect.

• Scalp Messaging Shampoo Brush– For whatever shampoo products that you decide to use, this brush stimulates the base of your scalp allowing the shampoo to clean and stimulate new growth. It will have you feeling like you just left the washbowl at your favorite hair salon.

• Honeycomb Detangling Brush – There is a technique to use this brush. It bends, stretches and twist while you are detangling. So, part your hair in sections. To detangle use the brush in a vertical motion, but to define your curls brush in a horizontal motion.

• Microwaveable Deep Condition Cap – This is the million dollar step. This will moisturize and soften your curls, the cap is made from flaxseeds. After you have microwaved place this cap on top of a plastic cap for deep heat conditioning.

• Microfiber Towel Turban – last but not least the towel. You will be amazed that a towel makes a difference in the care of your hair. Regular cotton towels pull the ends of the hair and cause breakage (split ends) and slows the growth of your hair. In contrast to that, the microfiber towel hugs the curls instead of destroying them.

New beginnings

We all know that where change is there are new beginnings. We as we women can empower ourselves by providing self-care in every aspect of the world. This Wash day kit is just one of the ways to start. Providing love to ourselves boosts our self-esteem and confidence because after all we are vain.

Making a change on the inside of your body for a healthier you is called “BIOHACKING“. I have a proven product that will do just that. I’m using it my family is using it and we love it. This is a system that provides an overall healthy change to your body without the medicine and chemicals used by major pharmaceutical companies. All-natural products are used to achieve the change.

In addition to the biohacking solution above there is also another solution for those who want to loose weight. This system is proven because I talked it and walked it.

This article COVID19 A Humbling Journey was inspired by my experience with this horrible disease and no clue where I might have gotten from.

The Beginning

I am an RN living in Arizona and have 5 biological children and 1 beautiful stepson. My life is just like the next family.

When Covid came out, all I can remember is the panic and fear that was instilled in us about the virus.

As usual, the news media was showing us all of the people dying in China. Of course, our president is saying that we will not be affected here in the United States. (which we all know that was a lie, just like other lies that were told).

Moving Along

Fast forward to March, New York was hit hard with the virus, spreading like wildfire as the rest of the country watches in horror. The CDC had no clue how it spread so fast. The medical community undoubtedly could not figure out how to treat it, so that all of these people wouldn’t die. That in itself started a frenzy around the rest of the country.

The Shutdown

Then as time went on the rest of the country was hard hit with the disease. We were told that we have to shut down the cities in order to quarantine. People started working from home, Kids were being home schooled and it slowed people down tremendously.

In some ways that was the best thing that happened to families. Society moved so fast that we forgot what family and love were about.

Parents were able to reconnect with their children, spouses had time to work out differences and listen to one another. Because after all what else was there to do, Everything was closed except the essential places.

Learning More

As the CDC started to learn more about this disease we were told to wear masks, social distance, wash your hands, cover your cough, and sneeze.

Some people even decided that they were not going to comply because their rights are being infringed on despite the fact that, that would be the right thing to do for humanity. (Go figure)

To top it off we have a leadership that is not taking this pandemic seriously and shortening the curve. Politics are being intertwined in what is really the right thing for this country. He’s not supporting the wearing of mask, which is causing faster spread. (My personal opinion)

Despite the imminent danger to society the decision to open back up to save the economy was made. I know that I am leaving out the stimulus checks and an increase in unemployment pay. (That is another topic of discussion)

In the meantime, the death toll and infection rates are increasing and the country where all of this started is decreasing, because of guess why? they are practicing social distancing, wearing masks, and has limited movement.

Back to Business

So the economy opened back up. The hospital census was low. Elective surgeries were put on hold and people using the emergency room as their primary care doctor came to a halt.

The position I held as an RN was float pool and most of us were unaware that our position was at the bottom of the labor pool, so there were no hours for us.

A good friend called and offered me a job where she works and then at that orientation, I found another job. I was very blessed.

I thought that being in the thick of everything and possibly bring COVID back to my family would be devastating. (so I thought.)

My Personal Journey

On Monday July 06, I woke up with a terrible headache. I had to work that night, so I fiddled around the house and went back to sleep so that maybe it would go away and going to work wouldn’t be so bad.

At work, I felt really bad. My insurance offered telemed, so I did that to get antibiotics thinking my tooth was infected. The medication allowed one good day of feeling good, but I worked the rest of the week.

That Saturday morning after work I was starting to feel like I had the bad flu. Later that afternoon I took NYQUIL and slept for 2 days.

Monday, July 13th I decided to go get tested. I was told 5-10 business days before the results are back. About 3 o’clock in the morning I stared to have chest pain thinking I was having a heart attack. I laid there and just tried to rest. All the while I’m thinking the worst.

I wake up the next morning still feeling horrible. Right before noon, I tell my son that he is going to have to drop me off at the emergency room as the chest pain started to come back.

On the way to the hospital, I get a call that my COVID test was positive. You can only imagine the horror I felt, and not hardly being able to move because I was so ill.

When I get to the ER my blood pressure spiked so high I could feel the pressure in my head. At that point I did not have a runny nose or stuffy nose, but I could feel the congestion building up behind my eyes with an occasional cough.

The Results

My blood work came back showing that there might be some clotting going on. I was terrified, because I understood what all of that means. A CT angio was performed and while I was waiting for the results all of the worst scenarios start to manifest. Luckily the results came back negative and I can go home and recover the best I can.

Being Home

This is a real quarantine from the entire family. I am in my room with the door closed and feeling like I’m going to die. All I could think about is if I die who will take care of my children, they need me.

The hot and cold flashes, nausea, horrible headaches, fevers that won’t go away. the occasional cough was what I was experiencing the first 5 days. I could hardly get out of bed or feed myself.

My Support Team

My support team was my husband and 17 yr old son. They made sure I had water and food and took my meds when needed.

My long-distance support was my mother, 19 yr old daughter, and my brother who is studying to be a Nurse Practitioner and able to tell me all about the latest developments and what I should be doing to help my situation. Also, a great sister-in-law that blessed us with groceries and snacks for the kids. The thing that made me smile the most was seeing videos of my grandson and son while they play around.

My meds consisted of Tylenol, Mucinex, Vit C, Zinc, Magnesium, Fish oil, aspirin, Brain by VELOVITA and a whole host of other vitamins I can’t remember at this time.

Fast forward to that Saturday I started to see a light at the end of the tunnel and I started to feel somewhat human again.

My amazing husband scheduled for an IV infusion company to come in and give me an IV full of fluids and a big dose of vitamins.

Sunday was a setback. My fever came back along with a headache and the feeling of malaise. I was so discouraged. The thought of this being over seemed so far away.

I slept most of that day and around Wednesday is when I can say I started to feel normal. The thing that really sucked tho was although I felt better I still could not interact with my family like I wanted to.

LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL

Everyday before bed I would pray that the next day will be better. I was scheduled to retest until Monday of the following week.

Each and every moment for me was spent in prayer, more so than I had done in the past. The prayer was for other people as well as thanking him for sparing me.

Monday July, 27th is when I retested. I held two jobs, so one of them I could go back as long as I was symptom-free for 72hrs. However, the other one required me to have a negative test. I was symptom-free and went back to work the next day.

Wednesday, July 29th is when I found out I was COVID negative. I felt like at that moment, I got a second chance to figure out my purpose.

Like I said previously I left the hospital setting and ventured into mental health and substance abuse. I am finding out that this population of people needs a caring soul and I do believe that this is where I’m supposed to be.

Healthier Lifestyle

Prior to this COVID scare, I didn’t eat horribly bad, but I also did not take care of my immune system effectively. Being a nurse you would think I would know better.

Now my vitamin regiment consists of Vit C, Zinc, and a whole host of other vitamins specifically made for me through this company called Care/of. If you are considering researching this company use this code RT683R for a discount.

Another supplement that I use is called UUTH Not only is it designed to boost your immunity it also gives you a kick start. The UUth and Brain mentioned previously is used on a daily basis. Its purpose is to support your immunity, decrease inflammation throughout your body. all the while supporting joint health. I do believe this is why my recovery was successful.

This journey has been so humbling and being able to hug my kids and my husband again has been a blessing and will never be taken for granted.
