At acupuncture tonight, I was told I have a “floating pulse.”

She said this was because my immune-system was activated, and it was struggling to push out a pathogen.

 

I wish there was a way to eloquently describe the symptoms I have become familiar with the past few days.  I will say that a floating pulse was welcomed information- a pathogen is much more easily treated than an influx of Crohn’s pathology.

 

Mentally, I could not be more free of pathogens.

 

The pulse of my spirit is beating steadily.

 

Today marks the year anniversary of my first blog post.

It started with this.

 

… and here I am now, filled with so much inspiration.  Every day bursts with beauty.  I have been taking the most incredible mental notes, and as soon as my immune system kicks that pathogen’s ass, my renewed energy will bring shine to the incredible meaning I have found amidst the symptoms.

 

I am pushing my boundaries. I have rediscovered dreams I once had, but had consented to abandoning.  I am finding my voice, my truth.  I am developing a side of myself that I only imagined in my most confident of aspirations.

 

A year later, after creating a place where I went to truly be myself, I am finding that the real me isn’t just on a site anymore- it’s inside of me (and it’s shining a light that grows brighter by the day).

 

Please, don’t nurture what does not nurture you.

 

Mental toxins can be cleansed with the courage that awaits your acknowledgment.
