My Thoughts


Hi Jackie,

I've been following all your posts and Uny's answers and thought I'd pop in and let you know how I got through some things when I first came to the forum.  I can clearly see you've done your research, nothing like getting an education later in life is there lol?  I was thrilled to find Natural Healing and I've loved every minute of research I've done and I can tell you're gonna be the same.  Here we go lol.

Thank you for all the information on the juicers.

I'm one of the ones on the forum that bought the Vert and I'm loving it but I didn't want to ever make pasta or anything like that.  I have used the Vert for hours at a time and never had any problem but the instructions do say not to use it for more than 1/2 hour at a time.  It gets warm/kinda hot but it doesn't worry me.  I very much like that it's so fast and easy, I don't have to push the food through it and it's just so darn fast I can make so much juice in such a short time.  Like Uny says, if you want what she calls a workhorse then maybe this isn't the juicer you want because if something did happen to it from juicing longer than 1/2 hour then it would void the warranty.

You said “No fiber, no poopy (or very little)”. This is what I thought. So I am curious how you get ““poopy” (fiber) when you do a juice fast? Is it from the IF#2 pills?

Yes, it's from the IF#2 but it isn't in pill form, it's in powder.  You mix it with any juice of choice or with water if you want to take it that way.

I have tried a chiropractor several times on and off thru the years. To be honest I never saw a great relief and always felt it would be something I would have to do the rest of my life. At times the adjustments even made the pain worse. The best thing I found was when I was able to do frequent massage. There was a time when my insurance paid for it and at first I was going weekly a sometimes 2x week. It was incredible. Greatly reduced my pain issues and my migraines. Sadly no w insurance does not pay for it and I cannot afford it

I was diagnosed with migraines when I was 10 years old so I've had them for many years and I've also tried many different things to get rid of them including adjustments from a chiropractor.  It never helped with my headaches and sometimes made them worse!  Although I have read/heard of it helping lots of people with migraines.

Yup I certainly am brainwashed but looking forward to getting it all from natural sources. I just was not sure if there was anything I needed to add that was not gotten from the food. It seems from Superfood and other things I should be getting all that I need

No need to worry about being brainwashed lol, we all are/were to some extent.  The great thing about realizing we are is that we can do the research to find the truth and un-learn all that trash we've been brainwashed with and that is very empowering!

On one of your links I read that you said “…and if you do a parasite cleanse without doing a daily coffee enema (to get the rotting worms out of your liver), you can expect to experience all manner of liver cramping, aching, pain, digestive disturbance, gas, bloating.”. If I am doing a parasite cleanse for 30 days does this mean I need to do a daily coffee enema for 30 days?

I have to say that the coffee enema was my worst nightmare!  I'm not kidding, I waffled around for months trying to work up the courage to do it. When I finally did my first one, I thought, WOW this isn't so bad at all.  I felt kinda good/weird/strange after I finished but that was because I hadn't felt that good in a long time and I actually didn't know that's what the feeling was lol!  I absolutely LOVE CEs now, they make you feel so darn good!  Once you get used to doing them you'll see what I mean, plus they are so healing!  One of the best things you could do for yourself!

Would it be possible to wait until I get all the supplies I need for making Kefir for you to mail the grains? I just did not know it is okay to leave them unprepared for too long? I need to get the sugars, bottles etc

When Uny sent me my grains they stayed in the fridge for something like 2-3 months.  When I got them out to use them Uny told me to rinse them really good and let them sit in water with a little sugar overnight to revive them.  They did just fine, of course you could wait to get them but it won't hurt them at all if you get them too soon.  On second thought I think Uny has dehydrated them so it won't make any difference at all anyway if you have to keep them for a little while.

When I take the cayenne tincture my guess is that it will burn my mouth at least until I get used to it, especially when I am taking high doses for my migraines. Do you put this straight on your tongue or mix it with something? Can I chase it with something that will lessen the burn?

Yes, it will burn your mouth but I'm tellin' you true, it only lasts for at the very most, 3 minutes.  When you first feel the 'hot' you just won't believe it but then it goes away and it's benefits are well worth that burn for sure!!!!!  The thing is, I've been taking it for more than a year now and I STILL feel the burn but it's less if that makes sense, it's not bad at all because I've gotten used to it.  An example; I used to not be able to eat chili that was too hot with spice but now I don't even taste the hot spice in chili.  I mean I taste it but it's not the same kind of hot it was before, see what I mean?  NOOOOOOO, don't put it straight on your tongue, if you did that I don't think you'd be taking it again lolol!  I put two droppersful in a splash of water or as Uny says a gulps worth then slam it down.  I chase it with a glass of ice cold water.  Take my word for it, once you get used to taking it if you ever stop you'll miss it!  Yep, that's right I said you'll miss it because you'll notice the difference, it's that great!  

I apologize I am still a little confused on the bottles and the droppers. 

I wouldn't worry about that so much.  Once you get your order and see the bottles and all the teas and cleanses you'll understand.  You don't want to cause yourself stress worrying about the bottles and droppers.  

 

Lady’s Slipper: The herbal tincture most likely to create a sound, uninterrupted sleep is also the most expensive. It's called Lady's Slipper, and it's phenomenally effective. . Most people are sleeping within 20-30 minutes of taking 1-2 teaspoons of the tincture (approximately 4-8 droppersful). I think I would like to try this. I see you sell this in ounces. How much would I buy if I took it nightly? Do you know if this makes you drowsy the next day? Or has any other adverse affects?  It seems to have a 'next day' effect of a very slight 'calming' for me (it's claim to fame is 'quieting a racy brain')...and that effect (for me) seems to roll over into the following day (at least in the morning).

I guess I will have to see how this effects me. Not sure right now that I need any more calming in my life, I could use a little less…lol! But I do think it is worth a try

I can testify to the effectiveness of the Lady's Slipper tincture, it really does work.  I don't have a problem with a racy brain and it doesn't effect me at all the next day, it just ensures that I get a great nights sleep.  It doesn't give you that drowsy feeling like OTC sleeps meds do which is great. Another tincture I use as a sleep aid when I need one is the B & B tincture because I tinctured that and have lots of it and I only have a 2oz. bottle of the Lady's Slipper.  The B & B is what Dr. Christopher used to help heal a little boy with epilepsy, it's also used to help with earaches and to restore hearing. I read either Dr. Christopher or Dr. Schulze say it could be used to help you get to sleep so I tried it and it works great for me.

That is a great idea, to “'bolster' a particular vitamin, nutrient, or mineral”especially for me right now. I had not thought of that at all, to try and figure out what I might need and get it in my juice or a broth during that fasting time. I had not thought of being intentional during the fasting time with what I juice/make broth. I had thought I would juice the basic vegetables and fruits that I knew were healthy (such as the ones from Gerson I listed) and decide a lot by the flavor.  I really need to adjust my brain to the fact that my juice fast is for healing instead of thinking of it as part of my eating plan. How would I know what vitamin, nutrient, or mineral I need to bolster? Are there ways to figure it out or suggestions you might have? (as if you have not done enough!).

Getting enough nutrients is another thing I wouldn't worry about.  It's not how many nutrients you eat it's how many you assimilate.  I remember reading that Dr. Schulze said that juices are like having a blood transfusion!  Imagine that, juices are life giving nutrients that don't have to be digested, they go straight to work on healing your body.  Plus you'll be taking 6 T of Superfood a day and that is filled with nutrition, and let's not forget that potassium broth that is chock full too!  ;)  And don't forget that once the healing starts and you get the flow going you'll be assimilating more and more nutrients.

 

It's FANTASTIC for tension and tightness (if Willowley is reading this, she'll likely pop in add her thoughts on the Deep Tissue Oil). I understand about not being able to reach :( Perhaps your mom could help (?). Although it's best if someone massages it in, you will get a lot of "soothing/relaxing warmth" from even a light topical application....and it doesn't take very much. Typically we start with just one dropperful (say for a strained ankle or joint) and rub that in completely. It's pretty amazing what just one lil' dropperful can do!

My Mom is disabled and would not be able to help me but if it can soothe by application alone it might well be worth it! Perhaps I should try this in a sample and see how it works for me before I order the larger size? If I am correct a sample should be about 21 dropperfuls? Do the sample bottles come with droppers?

I can't say enough about how much I LOVE the Deep Tissue Oil!  I have my husband massage it all over my shoulders and neck when I've got a really bad headache.  The key with the oil is to work it in really good, the deeper you massage it in the better!  It's so soothing and relaxing and it really helps with the headache and any kind of tension I might have. The heat from it lasts for hours on my body, don't know if it does that for others but it sure does for me. The word amazing just doesn't seem to do it justice in my book lol! FANTASTICAL is more like it for me!

 

I am still confused by which kidney cleanse instructions I would follow. Page one, “Kidney Cleanse/Flush 5 Days” which is just basically drinking the tea throughout the day. My guess is this would be while juice fasting?

On page two, the “Five-day Cleansing and Detoxification Program”, and also on the link you sent me that says “5-Day Kidney/Bladder Cleansing Program”it gives detailed instructions for what you should eat and when each of the five days.  For Days #2, #3 and #4 you are supposed to juice fast. It gives very specific instructions on what you can drink for example “it is BEST, while on this program NOT to mix fruit and vegetables together.” Should I be following these instructions and not mixing the fruit and vegetable juices?

I'll let Uny explain about the instructions because I might confuse you more but I'd just use the first page if you do it while juice fasting.  When I did the kidney cleanse I felt such a well being, don't know how else to describe it.  I felt fantastic the whole week, in fact I wasn't ready for it to end.  Even though I had run out of the tea I continued to drink the morning drink with the lemon/lime/cayenne because I loved it.  I ordered another one because I felt like my body wanted more kidney cleanse but my son felt like he had a kidney infection coming on so I gave it to him.  Since then I've gone back to work and just haven't done another one but I'm going to soon.  I loved it and the way it made me feel, you just feel a goodness happening.

Is there an easy way to strain the herbs out?

 

I used a stainless steel strainer and it worked fine but I did have some herb residue but that didn't matter to me.  I since have bought a smaller mesh stainless steel strainer that I think will catch most of the herbs.

You mention later that “The Liver Tincture needs to be taken by itself because of the "bitters action" and you also say “it would be a good idea to do a few drops before every meal.”, I am trying to figure out where to fit this in with everything else.

I won't comment on when you should take your droppersful of the Liver tincture but I want to tell you that I take 5 drops of the Liver tincture straight on my tongue a few times a week to get the bile flowing and it helps you with bowel movement too.  For most everyone it tastes bitter but for me it doesn't taste bitter at all lol.  I actually like the taste of it.  

 

Except for the liver one, can all the tinctures be mixed with juice or water for taste? For example the Echinacea, and Herbal Calcium Tincture? I am not sure if they all taste bad?

The thing with all the different tinctures is that what one person thinks taste terrible another one will love lol.  You'll have to taste them all and see which ones you just can't abide then put those in juice or water to dilute or mask the taste.  I'm thinking Uny will tell you that you can mix them all together except for the Liver tincture.  I LOVE the taste of the Echinacea!  The only tincture I put in a splash of water is the Cayenne and the Brain Formula.  For me the Brain Formula is way hotter than the Cayenne, don't know why that is but that's how it is for me.  Every other tincture I take I put them directly in my mouth from the dropper but I don't think many people do that.  Sometimes if I'm in a hurry I'll put them all together and take them.  The one tincture I've found that seems to lessen the hot from the Cayenne is the Bilberry tincture if you mix those two together and take them but I don't know if you're going to be taking Bilberry.

The links to the chapters are not working.

 

I've talked to Uny and she is aware of this, she's working on finding them again lol!

 

Yes I realized I need loads of jars. Is Azure the least expensive place for buying them?

 

 

Where I live when the growing season is over places like Walmart put all the canning things on sale to get rid of them, you might want to check that out.

 

 

How would I utilize the clay for soaking the produce? You said it is easier to mix my own, would I mix it first and then use as a produce wash?

You can make a clay slurry and keep it in a jar then when you need to detoxify non-organic items add about 1/2 cup of the clay slurry to a big pot of water and put your veggies in it to soak.

If I am out and use the tincture with a migraine should I be concerned with the alcohol since I am taking so much? I know the first few times I need to test when I am home to see if I have any effects. Just wondering your thoughts and what my alcohol level might be? Since I am out I cannot splash with the boiling water I was wondering.

 

 

I think you'll find out pretty quick how you do with the amount of alcohol in the tinctures you'll have to be taking.  Everyone is different in how we react to things like that.  I don't drink and I do take a lot of tinctures and they have never made me feel in the least like I've been drinking but that's my body, you might be different.

 

 

 

One very important aspect of natural healing is to not let it stress you out.  I know this must be overwhelming to you but you'll get the hang of it once you get everything.  It does take some time to get a workable schedule and when you do you'll not likely be able to stick to it 100% but we shouldn't stress about that at all because stress is anti-healing for sure.  We all have to learn how to work our own programs once we get them because what works for one doesn't necessarily work for the other.  I'm a good example of that with taking all the tinctures but two directly in my mouth, most people would think that's just crazy but for me it's not ;)

 

Once you get used to your protocol you'll start noticing that your body will let you know if you need to change anything.  I know that right now that's hard to believe but it's true, you'll get so in tune with your body that any little thing that is off you'll know.  Of course this will be very beneficial for you when you start healing and need less of something, your body will let you know.  

One more thing I wanted to tell you.  Once you get started on your program you'll come to love some of the tinctures.  I will take the Cayenne and Echinacea tinctures for the rest of my life, along with Hawthorne for the heart.  We live in a toxic world and it's getting worse all the time so I feel like I'm just doing what I can to counteract all the toxins that float around me 24/7.  Oh and let's not forget the garlic, that's another thing I will always take.

 

One thing I've learned about becoming my own doctor is that it is so very empowering, I can't wait for you to experience that!  I'm very excited for you Jackie!  I know you are going to do great!

 

 

 

Abundant blessings,

 

 

 

Willow
