Back then, I was a 32 year-old designer running my own large and demanding business, and in doing so, running myself and my health into the ground.
As a result, I developed 'chronic' Rheumatoid Arthritis and the often associated illnesses, M.E. and Fibromyalgia. I was told I'd need both hips replaced almost immediately, and prescribed very strong anti-inflammatory drugs. Luckily for me, I had 2 very cavalier consultants who clearly did not have my welfare at heart.
And so I walked out of the London surgery determined to find my own path back to health and wellness. I didn't even have the prescription filled. I knew that my inability to control my stress levels at work, and to deal with a physically abusive relationship at home had combined to create my ill health.
I changed my lifestyle completely. I retired from my very successful but stressful business and divorced my first husband. I was on a mission!
It's taken 25 years, loving marriage and a lot of trial-and-error research to completely heal myself, my body and my mind.
Last year I lost both my beloved soulmate and my mum within just months of each other. Grief-stricken, my stress levels soared and I lost interest in my own wellbeing.
My joints inflamed, my energy levels plummeted, my diet was atrocious and so, of course, I got Covid. . . badly.
Joining Mindvalley and discovering Eric has confirmed in just 30 days, what it took me 25 years to discover organically. It's also a great reminder to me to get back and keep on course. I already feel ten times better than I did just a month ago.
Thank you Eric and Vishen, I'm looking forward to treating myself to Wildfit when I am able.
