A Christian View on "Occult" Natural Healing Modalities

A Christian View on "Occult" Natural Healing Modalities
It's a common concern I hear about. When Christians start delving into the world of more natural options regarding their health, they can run into a lot of confusing information. Some of the practices that seem like they could help are condemned as new age or occult.
When this happens, you need to take a careful look at what the practice is versus what people have made it to be.

Where to Find Healthy Groceries

Where to Find Healthy Groceries
Have you decided to make the switch to better groceries – whether you're looking for organic, non-GMO, pastured, more nutrient dense, or anything else? Having made that decision, are you now struggling with where to find them?
There are many reasons you may face a shortage of quality groceries. For me, I've always lived in a more rural and agricultural area. Most of my life, I was in a town of 1800 people with a single grocery store, and even now that I have two large grocery stores and a smaller, more natural-minded one to choose from, I still struggle to find the quality of food I want.
Furthermore, in agricultural-focused areas, few people seem to think twice about spraying Roundup and other poisons on or near their gardens or feeding antibiotic-laced feed to their healthy animals, so sometimes, even the farmers markets or local gardeners don't have what I'm looking for.
If you're feeling my pain, don't worry – I'm going to lay out exactly what I do to find the quality groceries I want, starting with the best option and working my way down.

Meet Melissa Denelsbeck

 

For years, I was trapped in a fog, never feeling 100%, always tired but too stressed out to get a good night’s sleep, struggling through headaches 3-4 times each week. Almost every afternoon at work, I would hit that mid-afternoon slump and be unable to keep my eyes open. Often, my headaches would start around this same time and last through the rest of the day. All I wanted to do was go home and sleep, but when I went to bed, my thoughts would race, and I wouldn’t be able to fall asleep.

I felt like I was stuck in a never-ending cycle of fatigue – tired all day and wide awake at night, and the headaches just made it all more difficult to deal with. I pushed on as well as I could through the sleepiness and the pain, but I never felt like I was functioning at full capacity.

Then, I started making some changes in my life and becoming aware of what I was putting in and on my body. Over time, I realized that my headaches were becoming less frequent, and my sleep quality, energy, and mental clarity were improving.

Now, a couple years later, I feel my energy levels remain steady from the time I wake up until I go to bed. I am able to quiet my anxious thoughts and fall asleep quickly at night. And the headaches? They’re so infrequent that I can’t even say how often they come – maybe 3-5 a year?

It wasn’t even that difficult a change to make. I just swapped out products in my life that were contributing to my bad health, and I replaced them with versions that enhance my wellness instead.

It’s a step-by-step process that you can take at your own pace, and I am here to be your guide on the journey and empower you to take back your own health!
