During the process of working to heal myself from asthma I went to Dr. Alice in Episode 2 and 3 and found out that my breathing problems are directly related to the childhood abuse I suffered. Then I met a woman who worked with Alice at Love the Belly named Shantelle. When Shantelle asked what I was doing, I told her I was trying to heal myself from asthma and she told me that she used to have asthma and no longer did!

Shantelle said that the most important thing that happened with her healing from asthma was being able to tell her story, being listened to and being able to cry for the first time. Once she was able to do that, her panic attacks and her asthma started to go away. Today, she no longer uses her breathing machine!

In these 4 episodes so far I have learned that I need to watch what I eat - cutting out sugar, dairy and wheat may be a good idea and I'm working on it but that's hard! PLAYTIME is said to be a must and that is fun although surprisingly difficult to keep in the schedule. It sounds so easy!

Next week I talk to a professional who confirms that trauma = health issues.
