      Hi guys, I tried twice to share a link that could help this beautiful lady with Parkinson's disease but it does not go through. Can you please tell her to Google Dr Joe Dispenza who works with Epigenetics. People with Parkinson's have healed themselves, and others have improved their symptoms.

    As 27 years old, who is living with cancer since 7 years, I can only tell that it's only truth. Being a live, being able to walk, dance, cry, laugh, make love etc. it is huge mercy in life! Love yourself deeply with your all sorrows and insecurities and there will be always others, who will love you too. ❤️

      Maybe that's right, but being involved with people, being of help and sharing in joys and pain is very joyous. Love does not seem to be a business ("If you love me, then I'll love you." or even "If I love me, others will love me") but is the originating feeling from which interest and real contact comes. Wishing you much joy, Nato. Love.

      @howardcohen6817 Рік тому +3

      ​@@delublink127 Let me try again. It's certainly important not to hate yourself but loving yourself removes you from being involved, intimately, with life. When I die - and that's more sooner than later - I want to still be involved in the beauties and wonderfulness of life and not be bogged down with my loving me - the instrument of experiencing that life and of my examination of and discussion with it.
      It's the one sitting opposite me who is the one upon whom to focus and not me who's interesting and worthy of my love. When there is no one sitting opposite to me - no matter - life is great and abounds with teaming life in which to be interested and in which for me to share love. Thank you. Love.

    Dear Christy, your story really resonated with me. I too divorced after 20 years of marriage. It was the darkest, most frightening time of my life. I remember so well the feeling that I was on a raft in the middle of the ocean. As I battled to get my life back on course, I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. It was such a painful struggle, I could barely walk.
    Twenty years later, I am happy and content and know my body and its limits so much better. I have learned to avoid stress and pace myself to help with the flare ups. I am still on my own but, whereas previously I had felt unlovable, I now love myself.
    Sending you a big hug and wishing you and your children a wonderful life. xx

      In my experience, true 'hell on earth' is a function of Self-betrayal/denial on a consistent basis. If you turn your back on YOU long enough, your body will find ways to get your attention, guaranteed. Usually in the form of an autoimmune disease. All dis-ease, dys-function, dis-comfort, dis-whatever is evidence of resistance to Self-Love....daily doing what you think you 'should' rather than following your heart's lead to make Self-aligning choices.
      In my case, I was diagnosed with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease in 2002, an autoimmune disease affecting many of my joints & soft tissues in both hands & feet. I, too, could barely walk at times & my inflammation markers were off the charts. I had not the strength in my hands to wring out water from a sodden washcloth, nor could I pull a blanket over my body in bed; my wrists were so fragile. Scleroderma rendered the skin of lower legs hard, leathery/wooden.
      Your raft-in-the-middle-of-the-ocean analogy parallels my own feeling of being a 'reed in the wind', lost, capable of being blown every which way, with nothing to ground/anchor me. Basically I felt severed from ME. In Nov/2003, a specialist to whom I had appealed for a 2nd opinion, told me: the progress of my disease will be "rapid and severe". I refused all meds & walked out of that hospital laughing...because a switch had flipped within me. I decided to take back the reins of my life. My patience with my symptoms & doctor visits had run its course.
      So....at some point in Dec/03, I responded to an inner impulse to open, for the 1st time in 2 years, a story file on my laptop & resumed work on my abandoned novella. Within 24 hours, most of my joint issues began to subside! I made the conscious decision to re-engage with my heart's passion: fiction writing. I simply returned to ME, realigned with my Truth. That was my panacea, my salvation.
      But my road to full recovery was long--8 years (2002-2010). In the summer of 2014 I tentatively attempted my 1st cartwheel in 12 years (I had been athletic prior to the onset of my MCTD); it took a few trials, but I did it! I wanted to see if I had sufficient strength in my wrists to support my weight on them. I am today in my 5th decade of life, in perfect health, able to 'plank' 5/+ minutes, & I routinely wrap up my workouts with a series of 'round-offs' & the 'splits', just because I can & for the sheer fun of it. I'm happily writing & in the best shape of my life.
      Just DO YOU. :)

She was a nurse and carer her whole life and now she excepts that she is looked after by wonderful carers and myself. Mum has never given up though and we work our way through each problem and carry on. She's hardly able to walk now but she will still be coming to us for Christmas, whatever her physical look may be she is still my mum and part of this family.

    Wow thank you very much Christy. I have recently been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis totally out of the blue at 52 years old. I am now trying to come to terms with it and realise that it is time to change my way of living in so many ways. Your courageous film has inspired me.
    This afternoon I spent my second session on self love looking at myself in the mirror and repeating positive affirmations to my reflection. Very emotional. My main challenge is to reduce stress…. I’m full of it and have been for years. Sadly I am looking for new homes for my beautiful llamas. The farm is just too much for me now to worry about.
    Thanks once again and I’m sending the biggest healing hug to you. ❤️

    • @ReflectionsofLife

I have lived with Parkinson's for 10 years, so i have been traveling my road with this challenge and blessing. The central thing it has shown me is that running through "positive" and "negative" experience is aliveness. Aliveness carries me onward through the spectrum of experiences that come and go. I wish you aliveness on your continuing journey. Peace and delight on your way.
