It's incredible the reach epigenetics has if you take the broader definition of epigenetics being a change in gene expression. What doesn't cause a change in gene expression? From smoking to exercising, eating, meditating, social interaction, early life stress, and even reportedly treatment for PTSD, everything we do changes us at one or more levels.

I saw my doctor a couple days ago to go over an incredibly thorough panel of blood tests he had me do to see what was causing my symptoms. He looked at EVERYTHING. My entire digestive tract, blood counts, vitamin d, cortisol, serotonin, dopamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, full thyroid panel, allergies and food sensitivity tests. I'm gonna be honest I was crying and smiling at the same time when I got to my car at the end of my appointment. Because for 17 years I was put on medication for pain and mental health issues that did NOTHING but fuck up my gut and mess with my head. For 5 years I went to countless doctors with all the xrays/MRI's/ct scans/heart monitors/cardiac tests/liver tests. Had me thinking I had MS or a hidden tumor or a problem with my heart. Making me think I'm crazy or I'm gonna die too early. The picture on the left was a year and a half ago. I was 115lbs, sick and scared. The picture on the right is today. I've been with my current doctor, a naturopathic physician for ONE YEAR and a holistic counselor for one year and they have found, fixed and helped me with everything. I am optimal in all blood counts, my thyroid is optimal, I have a bad allergy to house dust, no allergies to foods, no tumors anywhere, and no infections. I DO however need B12, levothyroxine, omegas, and a probiotic every day. Vitamin D 3x a week either by pill or outside in the sun for at least an hour Without sunscreen(sunscreen blocks vitamin d absorption). A cream for my PMS headaches. Exercise and stretching for my headaches/neck/shoulder issues. Medical marijuana for chronic pain. Meditation 12 minutes a day at least 4x a week. I'm not sick, broken or stupid. It's not all on my head. I know my body. I am mindful. I am my own advocate. I have healed my shit. My chakras are aligning. My inner child is acknowledged and healing. This us why I use products like #Monat, sage, cbd, lavender, cannabis. Why I'm studying to be a natural health consultant. Why I'll be promoting more Monat stuff trying to help my peeps get better results with natural products. I won't go back to the bullshit ever again. #fuckbigpharma #selfhealer #naturopathy #natureisbetter #monat #glowup https://www.instagram.com/p/CFN2TUbHFWy/?igshid=mj7mb52q3s2e

In 2018, I visited mihwangsa, a buddhist temple built in 749 AD in the southern tip of the Korean peninsula. I arrived during a typhoon & spent five days waking up at 4 am to the sound of a drum, linking arms with the other sleepy-eyed women to make our way down the muddy mountainside for morning prayer in the temple. As we chanted and prayed, the ringing bells resounded inside of me, the smoking incense floated me away, and the idea of home swelled to encompass this space, the remote mountainside and the new quiet of my body. On the fourth day, the skies began to clear and on the fifth, the ocean appeared, boasting a blue horizon filled with islands...the feeling, which still hasn't left me entirely, was so much bigger than happiness, somehow rounder than joy.  Everyone should get to live in a temple for a few days. . . . [images of the temple taken pretty much when I arrived and when I left because we were asked to keep electronics off during our stay. The first image shows a traditional korean hanok shot from above and surrounded by terraced greenery and grey clouds. the second image shows the incredible view of the ocean, a string of islands, and the overwhelming emerald of the Korean mountains, motherland, heart ♡] . . . #HermitKingdom #Buddhism #HigherConsciousness #MagicIsReal #SelfHealer #KWave #EmergentStrategy #PleasureActivism #MeditationSpace #Hanok (at Mihwangsa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_x4CcelJhs/?igshid=19wub9e1539wf
