Years ago, I went through a deep spiritual awakening. I became hungry for truth and healing, so I studied many things on the path toward enlightenment. One of the first resources I explored was Mindvalley. Practicing Alpha Level Meditation helped me feel lighter, calmer, and release tension from my body.
Combined with biblical wisdom, consistent exercise, and intentional nutrition, I experienced something powerful: my body healed itself of a tumor in the lining of my uterus that was the size of a softball.
At first, Meharry Medical recommended a hysterectomy. After years of working in healthcare, I knew the importance of getting more than one opinion, so I did. I also knew to look at my situation from a more holistic perspective. I chose a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet, eliminated bread and sugar, exercised seven days a week, and meditated daily, along with prayer.
Some days I added yoga to my routine. Yoga made me laugh and helped me relax. I noticed that centering myself kept my mind, emotions, and spirit full of light, love, and laughter.
A year later, I returned for follow-up testing. Multiple exams showed that the tumor was completely gone. My doctor called it a miracle. I believe God can heal our bodies—and I also believe our bodies, when supported, are designed by God with an incredible capacity to heal themselves.
Shortly after that, I was riding the elevator at the VA when a few nurses from Vanderbilt approached me and encouraged me to sign up as an organ donor. At that time, I was not as aware as I am now, and I agreed. Later, I chose to revoke my organ donation status with Vanderbilt. Sometimes people act from motives that are not pure, and I have learned to be more discerning.
From that season until now, I have not been sick or on any medication. I also realized that during my marriage, my ex-husband’s medication and physical illness had affected my health and body. After the divorce, I became very intentional about protecting not only my physical health, but my spiritual well-being. In every relationship since, I have been committed to protection on all levels.
Sleeping alone for many years has taught me a lot about myself. I discovered that when sharing a bed with someone disturbs my rest, I’d rather sleep alone and have peace. There has only been one time when I woke up next to someone and felt music flowing through my soul. That was a divine connection.
Scripture teaches us, “Test the spirit by the Spirit to see whether it is of God.” When God sends someone into your life, there is a sense of harmony, peace, and alignment you can feel deep within.
Be blessed.
