I had a client who had Gastrointestinal reflux disease. She had tried various things to feel better but couldn’t seek to kick her symptoms. We talked, and I followed the clues that she displayed – like a femmy cough after eating- and we narrowed the issue down to dairy, especially cheese – which she ate regularly. Upon initial discovery, she was surprised that the cause could be dairy. She had never really put the two together.

However, once we were sure that the cause was dairy, she was 100% on board to alter her diet to feel better. Most people fear change and don’t want to give up these delicious but harmful food groups like cheese and milk. She had no hangups with the diet change because she wanted to feel better. And so I coached her through the elimination, and she killed it! And I only heard back from her maybe three months ago. She sent me an email. She told me, “My Gastrointestinal reflux disease is gone. I’m feeling so good and just wanted to thank you.”

I love seeing these victories where a simple solution, strictly adhered to, makes a world of difference.

If you’re struggling with symptoms that you can’t kick, consider dropping me a line. I’d love to help.

I’m really into Linden flowers right now. I’ve found it super sweet and comforting to drink linden tea right now. It’s floral and sweet. And it’s one of the few herbs where I do a “weak infusion” and only brew it for maybe 10 minutes. Because it’s delicate taste and I like that delicacy.
Linden is like chamomile in that it’s super safe. But interestingly, it also gets slippery when brewed, which is excellent. It’s helping me de-stress and rest right now. Sometimes I don’t get excited about going to sleep. But Linden comes in, and it’s just like this lovely friend that tells me it’s going to be okay.
