My Journey From Healing to Harmony Within Myself

................

Hi. I'm Nicole, and I had been suffering with chronic illnesses since I was a little girl. I was exhausted and anxious for as long as I can remember. I just thought it was who I was as a person. As a child I was constantly sick, had aches & pains, awful social anxiety and so on. In 2019, after a few years of unknowingly living in an apartment with toxic mold, the "toxin load" in my body finally reached its threshold and I started having scary symptoms.

I saw doctor after doctor & specialist after specialist for almost a year and they all told me I had nothing wrong with me or maybe it was just IBS or maybe I should see a psychiatrist (meanwhile, I was experiencing short-term memory loss, change in vision, feeling like I was drugged, bloating, severe nausea, vomiting, GI upset and so on).

After getting nowhere with Western Medicine, I decided to see a Functional Medicine nutritionist. After our initial appointment she had me do an array of in-depth testing. After getting my results I found out my gut was severely imbalanced, I had developed severe food sensitivities and I had extremely high levels of toxic mycotoxins from mold in my body.

I moved out of that apartment immediately and began my journey of researching and learning how to heal myself. But it isn't always as easy as just leaving the moldy environment to heal. My body had years of toxins built up and very poor detox pathways. During those 3 years I lived in that apartment I developed autoimmune Hashimotos Thyroiditis, Adrenal Fatigue, POTS Syndrome, severe damage to my GI system among many other things.

After a few years of trial and error of treatments and working with many different specialized Functional Medicine doctors I found out that since I was little I've been suffering from Lyme Disease, Mold Toxicity, Heavy Metal Toxicity and an overload of environmental toxins.

After going to treatment clinics, working in the Functional Medicine field myself and researching the work of doctors such as Dr. Ann Shippy, I have come to find that many other people are also suffering from an overload of toxins. Today, we have more mental illness and health problems than ever before and it is no coincidence.

After years of trial and error I have learned what nutrition works best in supporting my healing, alternatives to everyday toxic products, how to regulate and calm my overstimulated nervous system and so much more. I got my certification as a Neurofeedback Technician and gained experience helping people regulate their brainwaves with neurofeedback and by decreasing inflammation with nutrition, supplementation and healthy lifestyle changes.

Through this experience I found my purpose. Now, I am also a Health Coach & Usui Reiki Practitioner and coach my clients on all aspects of overall wellbeing. I will guide you on your way to finding your own harmony within yourself.
