How Anne overcame Chronic Respiratory Infections FOR GOOD
I've been a Shiatsu ( acupressure) QiGong ( Somatic Movement) and Breathwork practitioner for nearly 15 years and I've witnessed the women I've helped transform their lives, overcome pain, chronic fatigue, burnout and so many more physical, mental, emotional symptoms.
Their stories are inspirational and heartwarming and I want to start sharing them with you.
I created The Client Chronicles, to help instill hope and inspiration and help highlight the simplicity, effectiveness and power of holistic healing. Or as I like to call my signature method :
EMPOWERED HEALING THE MERIDIAN WAY
This is Anne's story!
The Challenge
Anne was a healthy 40 year old woman. However, from the moment she had her first baby, she started catching frequent colds, having blocked sinuses and lingering coughs. Two years later, after she had her second baby, these colds turned into recurring bronchitis which finally ended in pneumonia! All in the space of 12 months.
At the age of 42, she’d gone from being an independent, fiercely competitive, high-ranking professional to a pale, weak, mum, barely able to get through her work days, too weak to take care of her baby and toddler.
Feeling OVERWHELMED, EXHAUSTED and SCARED was now her daily norm.
She'd tried it all, over-the-counter remedies, medication, antibiotics, inhalers, you name it, she'd tried it. But NOTHING provided permanent relief.
Discovering Meridian Healing
I still remember the day Anne reached out to me. Her voice barely a whisper. She'd gotten my number off another client of mine, ( who I'd been helping with fibromyalgia symptoms) told me about her chronic respiratory issues and asked if I thought I could help. She sounded desolate.
Uncovering The Full Story
When I first saw Anne, she could hardly breathe, she thought she was slowly suffocating. I listened as she told me her story, her symptoms, her fears. We went over her medical history , her life at home, lifestyle, emotions she was holding on to, what she was eating, her cycle, and her sleep patterns This is the (w) HOLISTIC APPORACH.
I explained to Anne, that her answers to all of these questions held information as to why she kept having respiratory infections. You see medication is necessary and it does treat the bacteria or virus. But in TCM, we know that stuck , unprocessed emotions play a far greater role in keeping your body sick!
Her WORRY as a new mum, her SADNESS at the realisation that her partner was neither supportive nor compassionate KEPT HER LUNGS FULL OF MUCUS, A PHYSICAL MANIFESTATION OF HER EMOTIONAL TRASH.
A Personalized Healing Plan
Now, Anne needed compassion, support, guidance and a simple protocol to follow.
You know Simplify to Amplify is my motto!
SIMPLIFY your life by SIMPLIFYING your daily routines; the things you need to do to feel like yourself again! It’s not a magic pill and it won’t happen overnight, but by the end of our 6 weeks of coaching together, you WILL HAVE SEEN and FELT A HUGE TRANSFORMATION.
So Anne & I created a plan. A plan that she could easily commit to:
1. Acupressure to clear out the slime in her lungs!
2. QiGong ( somatic movement)
To help her thoughts, emotions, energy flow.
3. Diet: Mint tea and thyme tea are great in breaking down mucus.
Bone broth, chicken & meat soups were potent in replenishing her energy.
4. Breathwork: You know I love my 6 Healing Sounds!
ALL THIS IN 1 MINUTE INTERVALS, DONE THROUGHOUT THE DAY WHENEVER SHE FELT SHE NEEDED HELP, OR WHENEVER SHE HAD A MINUTE TO SPARE.
5. Constant support from me, cause when you text me asking for help, I reply!
The Transformation
Within the first 2 weeks, Anne felt the heaviness in her chest begin to lift, and her energy slowly started coming back. By the 6 week mark she'd regained her STRENGTH, her CONFIDENCE, was easily able to take care of her toddler and baby and get through her work day.
By the 12th and final week together she felt RESILIENT, UNSTOPPABLE.
Celebrating Lasting success!
It's been 13 years since Anne and I started working together and she HASN'T HAD ANOTHER RESPIRATORY INFECTION EVER AGAIN.
She's been in my world ever since, coming back 2-3 times a year to get help in whichever area she needs it.
Together we've achieved HUGE shifts in her life
- She overcame chronic , ( nearly daily) migraines
- Chronic Respiratory infections
- Burnout
- Chronic heart palpitations
- and smaller pains and aches
If Anne's story hits close to home with you, perhaps it's time we sat down for a chat.
No pressure, no commitment- just a sit down to see how we can work together helping you go from feeling heavy , to feeling LIGHT; from feeling stuck to feeling HOPEFUL, from feeling overwhelmed to feeling BACK IN CONTROL.
