Happy Spring 2018.
\nThe annual acid reflux started last week \u2013 seemed to be related to onions on a sandwich. Allergy triggers, increase in inflammation, are signs of the season for me.\u00a0 I watch and manage these closely so that they don\u2019t evolve into something worse (UC trigger).
\nUniverse, whatever it is that I think, feel, or believe that is manifesting in my body I am ready to release. Please help me to have connection to this body to understand and make a change.<\/em>
\nSo \u2026 this short blog today is just to document the natural remedies that I have found helpful in the past. The last week has had several \u201cOh yeah!\u201d as I recall methods I used last year to manage the acid reflux.
\nThe first thing I did was go back to taking the licorice root supplement every morning. This helps to improve the stomach lining mucus.
\nI have candied ginger to chew on after eating. It is a sweet treat and helps with the acid.
\nI take digestive enzymes when I eat something I know I have issues with like grains or dairy.
\nA couple of days into suffering with the reflux I remembered that last year I was carrying fennel seeds in my purse to help with digestion. I took some and immediately got some relief. This is an important remedy not to forget.
\n\"\"
\nThis morning I was reading a blog on fermented foods and she wrote about Kefir being a great remedy for acid reflux \u2013 another one I had forgotten about so I will be adding that back into my morning routine.
\nBelow is a prayer that I have over my desk that I evoked during a difficult time a few years back. Now, things are good. I would like this annual difficultly to fade bringing me understanding and some fun enlightening A-ha\u2019s so I pray:
\nMy prayer \u2026<\/em>
\nI pray for this to go easy and that I be given the tools for it to go easy.<\/em>
\nI pray the same for my family.<\/em>
\nI pray the same for those who might be pushing against us.<\/em>
\nI pray this for the world.<\/em>
\nAmen.<\/em>
\nHappy Sunday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
