When it comes to chronic health conditions it can be very difficult to maintain the beautiful life that you’ve created with your loved ones. It’s not easy to get up in the morning to begin the day. Life throws curve balls at us regularly. It’s important to be prepared at all times and take extra care of ourselves - mind, body and soul. Turning a deaf ear to life's challenges (like chronic illness) will keep you in the dark. Often times, family members may listen but you still feel invisible or neglected. The hard part of dealing with chronic health issues is not having the right support. This can be very detrimental to healing, at the emotional level. You need that support. It’s crucial to your ultimate mental, physical and emotional well-being.

5 Simple, Natural Tips to Beat Chronic Illness

Be Proactive with Your Health

Taking control of your health is not only being proactive with it - it’s doing your homework when it comes to seeking out the right type of healthcare that is unique for your health concerns. Think about what your beliefs are. Do you want to pop pills for the rest of your life, or would you much rather focus on your health by incorporating natural foods combined with holistic care to try to overcome challenges before they arise? Your body wants to achieve a state of natural equilibrium, and integrative natural health combined with functional nutrition can help get you there!

When you've decided once and for all that you can beat this, you become proactive. Taking responsibility for your health is the most valuable step to improving your health concerns. The best way to take bold action is to dive deep into your soul and think about what makes you feel happy and alive. Does a simple yoga or Pilates routine bring fire to your life? Or what about getting outside and feeling the sun on your skin - does this not feel great?

Stay Positive

This is a lot easier said than done, and I know this from experience. However, many studies are coming out everyday showing the importance of positivity and how it can really make an impact on your health. Chronic illness in something that is a force to be reckoned with, and if you’ve already given into negative thought patterns, you’ve lost half the battle before it even began.

There is no better time than today than to seize the moment and take hold of your emotional and spiritual well being. Did you know that thinking negatively can actually increase your chances of prolonging or aggravating your symptoms? So turn off that negative tune that has been playing in your ears for years. Reframe your mindset and start truly believing that you can lead a better and more meaningful life that has purpose and direction!

Change Your Diet

This may also seem difficult to put into action. Many clients come to me thinking that they’re eating healthy, but unknowingly consuming foods that aggravate their symptoms. Without curtailing this common problem, you will continue on a downward spiral. “Cheat days” are mistakenly thought to be ok, but the fact of the matter is: the more you cheat with foods that perpetuate your symptoms, the less you see positive results in your health and wellness. You MUST eliminate or at least reduce the number of your cheat days.

Think about turning healthy habits into a hobby. Willpower is like a muscle - the more you use it, the stronger it gets. Strengthening your willpower can become a constant part of your life, even without thinking about it! Before too long, you will crave healthy foods and snacks over unhealthy ones. Then your lifestyle becomes an interesting, healthy hobby rather than a boring chore. Creating a lifestyle around your daily life can be beneficial by implementing fun ways of incorporating healthy foods into your daily meals. Once you begin to do this, you starting turning the tide of your health in a positive direction, and winning the battle!

Homeopathy for Your Health Concerns

Homeopathy is a fascinating alternative medicine. It has no side effects and it’s quite inexpensive. Rather than spending loads of cash on regular medications, you can get homeopathic remedies that help your immune system fight chronic illness naturally. With an experienced Homeopath, your remedies are carefully selected and suited to your own individual circumstances and symptoms.

Many people are choosing this form of alternative care over others, since homeopathy is very gentle on the body. Discover homeopathy and its powerful ways to effectively prevent and fight your health problems.

Botanicals: A Fantastic Natural Alternative

This entirely natural, plant-based modality takes the stems, flower and/or root of the plant and provides a strong potent tincture specific to your conditions. Botanicals are often preserved in a solution of alcohol (called Tinctures), helping to add shelf life for a long-lasting health product.

Herbal medicines work very differently than homeopathic remedies since their vibrational energies are not based on succions and dilutions. However, once the right one is chosen, they can provide very positive and powerful effects!
