Self-Healing Superpowers

QuantiMama Season 3 Episode 43

Sick? Or… upgrading? 

In a modern world, addicted to immediate relief or reprieve, it can feel a foreign concept to prioritise and honour our body's need for time and space when it comes to common, transient illnesses like colds and flu. 

QuantiMama Jodi spent three full days horizontal, tanked at 20% energy, feeling sick as sh!t and in full surrender. QuantiPapa McGill muscled through—favouring activity and fasting. Turns out, the upgrade comes whether you surrender or not. Underpinning the lot, though, is the inherrent belief system we have in our ability to self-heal.

This one's for the crunchy, the curious, and the mums still battling to “soldier on” through the mucous and soul fatigue.

  • Why we’ve forgotten how to rest (and what the body does when we finally do)
  • How kids rise when we drop the clipboard
  • Whether “catching a virus” is even a thing
  • What happens when you actually listen to your body

Whether your high vibe tonic is bone broth, terrain theory, fasting, frequency, or just more Netflix; QuantiMama Jodi and QuantiPapa McGill cover the scope with the added bonuses of witnessing unexpected delight of parenting through the upgrade, and why your cells aren’t older than your undies.

Here’s the kicker: Every seven years, your body regenerates entirely. So who’s still carrying the story of that dodgy shoulder or burnout from 2018? What if discomfort is just your body’s way of whispering: Oi, it’s time.

You’re not broken, you’re recalibrating. Just like Mother Nature, your body's wisdom is beautifully curated.

It's going to sound woo-woo, of course it's going to sound woo-woo, but you are in concert with your seven trillion cells or however it is. And when you quieten down your entire environment, including outside stimulation, and outside stimulation is anything outside of what's going on in your body, When you do that, you start providing the opportunity for your body to speak to you. And what will happen is thoughts will just occur to you. You'll suddenly, exactly like you're ear-candling, you'll be like, huh, why don't I try this? And you'll be like, where'd that come from? I mean, we haven't done ear-candling for 10 years. I had to go rummaging looking for those ear-candles. I do love an ear-candle because it turns a human into a birthday cake. with one match, which Explains how I could hear you singing in the background while it was bubbling away. Excuse for a song. Hello, Quantifolks, and welcome to another episode of Fark the Shoulds podcast. I am QuantiMama Jodi. Thank you so much. Well, I feel like I'm here most fortnights, to Well, that's exactly right. And the butterfly is a beautiful analogy because today we're talking about our ability to self-heal, the wondrous thing that is our body. And the butterfly very much, you know, shows that transformation that it can look like you're, you know, going to go through the death process when you end up in the chrysalis and you take out all the external world and you go into hibernation and then you come out fully, you know, guns a-blazing with two magnificent wings that are just breathtaking That's true. It's a good analogy, actually. I love that analogy of sticking into a chrysalis and coming out the other side. But I guess we've done it on a slightly minor scale over the last little while, because the change in the weather and the coolness that we've got has given us both the opportunity to upgrade our systems, Yeah, and that is a language we use in our household. And I want to talk about the body's ability to self heal, because I think that it's something that we don't give enough stock to in our society. Like we're fast to run off to, you know, the pharmacy to get rid of any pain, which is actually just a symptom of the body being in misalignment or wanting your attention for something. And we look for I guess what I call fishing expeditions, but these sort of investigative processes when something's a bit off. And it's not to take away from Western medicine, but we have become so reliant on it, we've forgotten that the body actually is always looking And we've forgotten to listen. Yeah. And that it's okay to not feel 100% every single day. You But whether you look at your body as a battery, whether you look at it as a power source, whether you look at it as a functioning, however you choose to look at your body, it's going to need time where it has breaks and cycles and where it's going to splutter along and it needs a bit of service and a bit of care and a bit of those sorts of things. And we tend to Which it really is a speed bump because it might take you out for a couple of days, but out of 365 days a year. But we're in such an immediate world. So to bring you up to speed, and we may very well cough and splutter our way through this. So this is firstly a demonstration of our love for you Quanti-folks, because we're showing up here feeling a little bit shy, aren't we? I'm feeling quite shy. Yeah, I'm not too bad. I'm sort of the worst of it. But yeah, it's been a challenging week, last week for Well, it's just been a week of winter. Winter in the sense of where you jump yourself down, you put on extra layers, you get an extra hot water bottle, you maybe watch a little bit more Netflix than you were doing beforehand. You let the kids run amok a little bit more, you know, that kind of thing where you just, yeah, you cocoon yourself exactly just as the caterpillar does to then blossom into the butterfly. And so it's that kind of thing. I think that this time round, well, I definitely had this worked out at the start of last week where I really went down like a sack of spuds. My energy level was, I reckon, about 20%. I just had nothing, and I just could not get myself out of bed except for the toilet, because Yes, yes. Yeah, that's right. But I felt really tanked. And what I did in those days was I literally Said to my body. I said to my you know, etheric field of my energy field Cool, you know what? I'm I hear you and I am just doing exactly what you need. I am in complete surrender I am going to bed. I didn't do any of that bullshit soldier on stuff that I think particularly we were indoctrinated And it's funny, because as we get into this, I probably did the contrast of that, because I did do the soldier on to some degree, where I still went to work and still did bits and pieces, even though I sort of felt pretty average. This is Well, to be honest, I think there's a couple of things, and you may disagree with me. But one, if we go back to, say, our history, You won't. You won't publicly disagree with me because you like being married. But I think one of the things that comes into it and, you know, feel free to correct me if you think I'm off task here, but when you look at our human designs, You're a, I always forget, you're a manifest or a generator, you're one of them. I think it's a generator. And a generator, like, just tends to focus, has a great deal of focus, likes It doesn't sound like you at all. You are such a grumpy shit if you don't get a job done that you have earmarked for that day, right? Whereas I am a man-gen, so a manifesting generator is the juggler, and they're the fire starter. So they basically have a million things going on at once. And my sneaking suspicion is that part of your personality type, shall we say, not that I want to pigeonhole you, but we'll call it a characteristic, is that because you are that certain type of human design where you do really focus on, you know, that one task. And so last week when you started feeling your upgrade coming on, because we don't say we're sick, we say we're upgrading, right? When your upgrade And you had this thing where you said, no, no, I'll save my sick days when I'm really sick. And so I thought that was an interesting mindset anyway, right? But it's underpinned by the fact that you know your body's But you laid off the sugar, I'm assuming, for a couple of days. You So these are all things that might be massive concepts to people, because the idea that you can starve out, say, a viral infection, And I have to say, I'm a believer of the terrain theory and its frequency. I don't believe that, well, we already know viruses are not contagious, right? That's been known for a while. There's still lots of gaslighting in society that tells you that a virus is contagious. contagious, and I would see people who are upgrading themselves and be like, oh no, stay away, you know, I'm crook. And I'm like, no, no, it's frequency. My immune system frequency is strong enough right now. I could lick your face and I won't pick up the virus. I mean, you like Yeah, I got to buy them dinner at least first. So my sneaking suspicion is, if I circle back to that point I was making a million years ago, was that because I am the juggler and I have, there's a substantial amount of energy for me that goes towards the juggler of having all those balls in the air, whether that's work, all the QM stuff that I'm wanting to do and are doing placentas looking after the kids, making sure that we don't turn them into criminals too soon, making sure that we have enough food, making sure that this That's right. So the juggler needs to hold on to at least 50% of the balls. And so I think that now I've worked out, the body has told me Hey, if you trust me to self-heal, then you need to listen to me when I say, get into bed and rest and just take out the extra workload. And I am so comfortable with that now. And I suspect that that is a massive difficulty for lots of mums out there particularly, because I think that women think they need to, they know they're imperative. When they're the primary caretaker of the kids, they are an imperative part Well, they're at the coalface. If they're not doing it, it's not getting done. Yeah. In many cases, and I Well, the exception is, and I shared this on Insta the other day. Excuse me. I was sharing on Insta the other day and I was looking completely shy the other day too. So thank you, Quantifolks, for loving me unconditionally. That taking me out of the picture for those two days and you're at work, one of the things that I observed was that the kids And I know they've done this before, so I actually have had experience with this, but they have a significant amount of capacity that I think most They don't necessarily get the opportunity. That's what I'm saying. So what I was sharing the other day was that I was feeling sick as shit I literally just, it wouldn't have mattered what was going on. I mean, maybe if they had, you know, if there was one of the children unconscious or bleeding to death, I probably would have got out of bed. But otherwise there was very little motivation for me to move from my, you know, current situation. And the kids just, they went above and beyond because they did things like they popped in and they said, How are you going, mum? Do you need anything? Is there anything I can get for you? And then the next layer of deprogramming that was happening for me was to accept all those. Initially, I'd go, no, no, I'm fine. Thanks, darling, for checking in. And then I'd go, you know what? I'd love a cup of tea, please. And they'd go and make me a cup of tea. Sometimes right, sometimes a little bit skewy, but that's okay. Like the love was there. But the point was that I wasn't having to call out to them at all. They literally kept coming in, all of them, all at different times. Like they staggered it beautifully and they just kept offering to do stuff for me, you know? And even if I said no, I'd be like, what about your hot water bottles, mum? Do you need another hot water bottle? And I'm like, Actually, I do. Thanks so much. So what I loved about that was they have capacity. Now, most of the time, kids, we don't say all kids, but we'll definitely say 50% of our children, are experts at shirking responsibilities. Like, they are the great, what do you call them? The, They are very good directors. They're very good at holding And looking busy, but getting everyone else to do their bidding for them. That's what I see in them. Right. And I go, OK, they're going to make fantastic adults. They're very annoying as contributing members to the family community right now. But that's OK. So we've got two that are very much of service. And so we try not to abuse that. And then we've got two that are very good at the word escapes me. This is a problem with being cloudy, isn't it? All right, Quantifolks, you So it starts with D. Let's come back to, so this assistance, extra care, stepping up of the children, how did that go? Did that allow you to surrender to this process that Absolutely. So much. I mean, I actually, I did two full days and I could just, even though it was uncomfortable, excuse me, even though it was uncomfortable, I was like, I was really grateful for the surrender. And I didn't have any sense that there was anything lost. Everything was happening perfectly. And I think that's the power of calling it an upgrade, right? Because people really concentrate on telling others about how awful they feel and how it's the worst thing ever. It was a really interesting thing that used to happen in ambulance. I always remember we went to this old duck. She must have been, I don't know, like 75 years old. And we went to her for gastro, right? So this was back when I was a paramedic and, you know, we got called for all sorts of things. So going to someone for gastro wasn't too incredible. Anyway, we roll in and, you know, it's reasonable to be concerned about an older person with gastro because there's a whole fluid thing, electrolytes, and there's, you know, a whole lot of stuff from a body sense of what's going on. But the interesting thing was I said to this woman who was talking full sentences, right, but feeling really queasy, she said, oh, This is the worst experience I've ever had. Like, I just, you know, I just, I can't even tell you how awful it is. Full sentences, looking nice and pink in the skin, like not the picture of near death at all. And I said to her, how remarkable to get to 75 and I mean, I actually had enough charm to get away with it, right? But my point was, I was just, it just was like, you know how the best war story wins in our community? Yeah. You know, we know that in birth. You have the most awful birth, you get the medal. You know, I remember that from mother's group and stuff, and I just, I never understood it. It was like a pissing contest for horror stories. But what was interesting in that was that you didn't feel like you had an avenue to say, well, I actually feel great, or I actually had a great birth, or you couldn't do a contrary thing. But more than that now is to actually say, oh, No, the body's remarkable. It's just doing its thing. Because everyone feels this distress about feeling uncomfortable. We've And we don't want it. We've decided that there's a way around it. So we just do it. So, let's get back to you. So it sounds like when you're laying there and you've decided, yep, I'm just going to surrender into this process. What was your mindset when you made that choice to just go, you know what, I'm undergoing an upgrade. It's going to be what it's going to be. I'm just going Well, there was a couple of things. Firstly, you know, being crunchy like we are, we don't do pharmaceuticals unless we absolutely need to. Like when I dislocated my shoulder, I was very happy for the pharmaceutical analgesics. We were all very happy for me to have some analgesic at that point. But even before that point, I had used breath to great effect. So there are always options to augment whatever Western medicine option there is, generally speaking. Certainly in minor things like viruses, I think so. It was really interesting because this time around part of that surrender and really owning the idea that the body was upgrading and so therefore expressing itself in the highest form in the sense of it's burning off the shit that I don't need. And that can sometimes be beliefs that you've held onto, perhaps trapped emotions that you've held onto, like you actually get to think quite global about how this self-healing shows up. And so I thought, okay, what does the body want? The body wants things like bone broth, right? So I got into that. I used, you know, some essential oils just to help the passages stay open so I could breathe. But I had a crushing headache that, you know, just, it just worsened every time I sat up. and moved around. And so I said, okay, what's the crushing headache, Nick? Well, I don't want to use drugs that's going to mask it because that switches off my ability to know what's happening in my body. So I got really clear on that. I'm like, well, I don't need any pain relief. I just need to not do stuff that's going to accentuate that. And we use a bit of colloidal silver in our house, so we ingested a bit of that. You've got to be aware of which ones to ingest, lest you turn blue-silver skin colour, but there are ones that are safe for ingestion. And silver is an extraordinary addition to your diet. But I basically, that was it. And I had a few people going, hey, want to try this? Want to try that? Do you want to do this? Do you want to do that? And I'm like, I don't want any of it. I didn't want any supplements. So that was what was really fascinating was I got my vitamin C from the small amount of food that I had. I got obviously the benefits of bone broth and I got a shed ton of rest and that was it. And I came out of that on Thursday, Friday, just It was like there was such purity to how Yep. And you were. You were lit up. You were light in the face. You were back My brain felt like I'd been hyper-energized. I had clarity on stuff. I'm like, people don't have this experience because they, you know, get sick, they whinge about being sick, which is the experience they give their mind and body, right? They don't actually take the time to rest when they really could. They then mask it and use a whole bunch of, you know, whatever it is, whether they're natural supplements or pharmaceutical supplements that don't ever allow the body to fully express itself in the way that it wants to. And then they most certainly don't get No. And that was the thing, because you were out of it and you were doing stuff. And I was sort of looking at you going, don't you need to sort of take it easy? What's Well, I know. And I did feel that. And I may have just, you know, gone a little bit too quick, as we know, because I tanked. I tanked again, didn't I? You did. But one thing I did was I ate some lollies. I was in the mental process of going, oh my God, I just want some sugar. And so I was like, what is the most self-sabotage-y thing I could possibly do? I'll have some, I'll have some lollies. I mean, I never eat lollies. That's what And it really surprised me given that you'd been through, and you Yeah. Oh yes. Up on that pulpit darling. But you've gone through this whole thing of, OK, I don't feel well. I'm going to surrender into this. I'm going to let all this take over. I'm going to do all the nourishing things for my body. I'm going to basically hibernate. While I'm hibernating, I'm going to fuel myself, my mind. I'm going to change my mindset because I'm an upgrade. I'm not unwell. I'm going to... And you get to the point where you're starting to Let's just test this old body thing out a little bit and Oh yeah, I went down like a sack of spuds again. So I've come out of it now. I had it yesterday in bed again. So I guess the thing is that when you get to a second pass or you have a relapse in the same upgrade, That's where the test comes in for the surrender and the self-healing belief system. Because there's a little bit of bargaining going on yesterday of just going, I'm sick of this shit. I'm ready to feel better. I've got stuff to do. And all of that projection, even into the you Yeah, it does. And also it's sort of saying, well, come on, If you don't listen, you decide partway through that going, oh, yeah, I'm good. I'm fine. I'm just moving forward and do something that then maybe So I'm so happy to show up as an imperfect example of this stuff and how that it's not about lecturing people. It's about saying there's a pervasiveness to all of this stuff. And so, you know, do you, do you benefit from having a go at yourself when you have a misstep? No, you don't. You don't benefit. So the loving kind thing to my body is to go, oh, thank you for that lesson. Throw out the other half packet of lollies, Jodi. You're not going to eat them. And practice How are you feeling now? Because you did just sort of push through and you had to Yeah, I mean, I did make that comment that I pushed through, but I pretty much cocooned myself as I could. I was doing so, you know, lucky enough to Yeah, and I found suddenly I was sleeping long nights, even though I had early starts. I was pretty militant on getting into bed early, and I did have that single focus of getting through my working stuff. But mine manifested, and this is something I spoke about with you, is that for me when I get crook along these sorts of lines in these times, it's always in my throat. And we were examining that and we had a look at it and, you know, generally anything to do with your throat, you're starting to look at the fact that you're not expressing yourself or speaking your truth and that sort of seems to be the constant theme for me that I tend to get sick, it tends to manifest itself as a throat infection or sometimes the ears. And it's interesting about how some things help you and some things don't, because I had a pretty gnarly throat. I was still going to work. I changed, obviously, my diet completely. I went down the path of going, well, I fast regularly anyway, so any time I break a fast, I was extending them out, so I might have been 20 or You're saying you're eating for a two hour window just to get people's heads around that. That's no breakfast, no lunch. It's a bit of Well, even then, if I was hungry, I had an orange or some other form of pretty high-laden, citrusy, vitamin C-packed thing was the first thing that was going into my body. But I also had that mindset when I was peeling an orange of, this is so good for me. When I was eating, I think we had... are there a few other bits around? And people go, oh, you know, we're talking about avoiding sugar. Well, I'm talking about natural sugar here, where I'm ingesting the entire thing. So the fruit is giving me what body needs to deal with anything that's in it. And so I guess I sort of struggled along a little bit of feeling average, but still being able to do everything else, except for this raging sore throat. And then I noticed my ears were getting clogged and I got you to ear candle me. But I knew at some point in time, I just went, I need to be ear candled. I could feel whatever it was in me moving from my throat to my ears. It sort of moved it out of my nose. So I got ear-candled and I actually could physically feel, maybe it was a physical manifestation of the thought, I could physically feel the clearing going on when I got ear-candled. And there was a huge amount of stuff that came out. Yet I ear-candled No, no. So that's, and I think that's the power of it because I think we're in a society where we look for a magic pill, whatever that might be. Oh, you know, sinuses are blocked up, ear candle. No, not for all people. I mean, that can actually really stress your ear canal and create inflammation, which then adds a bit more workload to the body. So it is about starting to wean people off the magic pill wish that Yeah, but also getting quiet enough to listen to the body. Like there'll be vegans out there are gonna go, well, bone broth is a great idea, except I don't, you know, I don't do animal, right? So if you're vegan, then there's something else that your body will whisper to you when you quieten down enough and you tell the body, I have trust in you. I know that you know how to heal. How can I support you? You know, it's going to sound woo-woo. Of course it's going to sound woo-woo. you are in concert with your seven trillion cells, or however it is. And when you quieten down your entire environment, including outside stimulation, and outside stimulation is anything outside of what's going on in your body, when you do that, you start providing the opportunity for your body to speak to you. And what will happen is thoughts will just occur to you. You. suddenly exactly like your ear candling, you'd be like, huh, why don't I try this? And you'd be like, where'd that come from? I mean, we haven't done ear candling for 10 years. I had to go rummaging looking for those ear candles. I do love an ear candle because it turns a human into a birthday cake with one match, which is just an absolute delight. Makes me so happy. Anyway, well, you know, birthdays are It explains why I could hear you singing in the background while it was bubbling Excuse for a song. Yeah, so I guess what I want to say for people is firstly, if the idea that the body self-heals is a massive concept for you, start with that, right? And then move to if the body is always looking to self-heal, then what is the impact of some of these things that we put into it? Right? Sugar, like as in processed sugar, is so much more worse for the body than cocaine. And I'm not suggesting everyone takes up cocaine as an alternative. I'm simply saying to get your attention, it is so much worse for the body. It down regulates all sorts of things. But one thing it does with great efficiency is it tanks your immune system. If you then move to the fact that viruses are everywhere and they are an expression of your immune system that has been down-regulated, when you really comprehend that, then you realize with good practices that For the most part, you won't experience too many upgrades and they won't go for too long. The body will do what it needs to do as you surrender, as you bathe it in love of saying, thank you for this upgrade, let's go. And you really just give it what it needs in And that's when you start acknowledging your body. And if you don't listen, then the body just keeps, what's that beautiful saying? The universe will throw pebbles at you, and if you don't listen, it'll It will throw these little pebbles at you going, you know what? You need an early night. You need an early night. You need an early night. No, I'm going to stay up and do this. I'm going to get up early and I'm going to push through. I'm going to do this. I wanted to have an early night. Now I'm tired. Now I'm And then over time, the body's going to say, well, I'm going to So I guess we talk about living in concert with nature guiding us the whole way. So if we look after them, they're going to look after us. And you need to work out the way that works for you. So if it's you're feeling sick and unwell and you happily surrender into that process and go, yep, I'm going to let my body fight this out and just, I'm going to let it do its thing, step out of the way. Or you make that choice of going, I'm going to go and get something else. I'm going to put it in here and it's going to do the job for me and I'm just going to move on. Is there a price for that? Especially if it's something minor, like a blocked nose or a headache that maybe only goes for ... that isn't too overpowering. Don't get me wrong for a moment. If you have a migraine or something that is beyond the norm, then potentially You get to the side. That's the point. I mean, I think people think the whole thing's really loaded and it's not. You've just, you've got to know what the effect is of all these things you put in your And it's not one or the other. Sometimes you might go, you know what, I just feel I need some assistance that's external. Other times you might look at it and go, look, you know, I'm cruising along. I'm going to beat Yeah, that's exactly right. The thing I really love about all of this is that The kids, and I know they would have done this earlier, as in like previous years, but with the fact that we had this unwavering belief in the way that we restitute in terms of our health. The kids weren't the least bit So it was just, it was interesting because QK2's obviously been at my mum's and my mum, bless her, gets all the natural stuff but also is a big fan of popping to the GP as well. She just hasn't quite cut that umbilical cord, right? And I'm catching up with her today to collect QK2, and she was that distressed about the idea. Well, not distressed, but she just held this tension about, would I be able to make an hour drive? I'm like, I can totally do So this is for And they, so I already said, I'll be right. No probs. I've got no issue coming to get her. Anyway, they call again today, but what was interesting was QK2 had this kind of just low grade tension in her voice, just going, are you sure you're all right, mum? I'm like, 100%, like no probs whatsoever. As I said to you last night, I'm absolutely fine to come and get you. But for the most part, what I saw with our kids last week was there was no level of concern in terms of, it was just like, yep, mum's just doing what she needs to do. Dad is doing what he needs to do. And they just had this healthy attentiveness and act of service, but when exposed to someone else who has a fear about it or a level of concern about it or sort of just puts their own fear of discomfort onto you, it was a little bit contagious. And so that's the contagion with viruses. is how other people respond, but not the And I guess QK4 is a good one to come back to as well, because we've had the luxury of only sort of obviously only having three Oh yeah, and then QK1 was off doing his thing over the weekend. three and four were sort of pretty gnarky at one another, and they had a little flare-up, and then after they'd had the flare-up, we spoke to both of them separately, and then before we just went, but I feel terrible, I feel sick, I feel, I said, what are you going to do about it? And he promptly went and put himself up on the daybeds in the house, made himself comfortable. And now, like after a day, he's rested himself back to wellness. And the difference in their behavior to one another changed immensely. Yeah. Well, there was two things there. Firstly, we didn't just let him retire on the fact that he felt a bit crap and therefore that was okay for his crappy behavior. So that was considered separate. brought that to his attention. There's still a level of accountability where he needs to, you know, still be kind or leave the environment. But more than that is the fact that this stuff is getting handed down to our kids. And we don't say don't go to Western medicine. We just don't demonstrate going there very often. I mean, you know, really the only time we've used Western medicine in the last. Even 10 years. is each time I dislocate a shoulder and that's it. I've only done it twice and I'm not planning on a Yeah. Yeah. But they don't see that modeled and it's not like it's an avoidance. It's just a, it's not a primary or secondary part of our toolkit. It's a tertiary if needed. And so we triage based on that, you know, we try the other things unless the situation clearly exceeds that. And for me, I'm really grateful they're getting that lesson because I want them to know that their body will self heal. And I also want them to be okay with discomfort, because that's contrast. And you then don't have the vanilla life. You get to understand that the body sometimes needs space so it can heal. And most importantly is these kids will grow up knowing that the oldest That's a fascinating one to get your head around, isn't it? I find it so freeing and so empowering. So when I say to people, cause I reckon the first dislocated shoulder Yeah. Still breastfeeding and stuff. So that must've been a good eight years ago, wouldn't it be? And I had told, when I dislocated the other shoulder the second time, um, second occurrence, someone said to me, oh, dislocated shoulders, you never recover, you know, I dislocated mine 20 years ago. And I said, that's just not how the body works. That's a belief system. And I think I probably offended them. But that's okay, because the fact is that the oldest cell in my body is seven years old. So the dislocated shoulder that I did eight years ago, there are no cells in my body that were physically materially impacted by that trauma. New cells have replaced it. So the only way I could continue to express symptoms of damaged cells is because I had put the belief system into my body. That is effing powerful. So pop that in your back pocket for next time you think about an injury being, you know, or an ailment being older Or how can I be responsible Yeah. Love this conversation. Look at it.
