Show Notes:
Noelle Janka (www.noellejanka.com) is a healing coach, intuitive mentor, and yoga teacher. More broadly, she supports social changemakers in seeing new possibilities for their healing, career, and the contribution they want to make in the world. After years of symptoms went undiagnosed, Noelle finally got a Lyme diagnosis in 2013. Since then, she has done everything from antibiotic and herbal therapy to Dynamic Neural Retraining System and Omdamed treatments, and today Noelle has been Lyme symptom free for five months. Join us as we dish about all of this, how community helps us heal, and the spoonie theory.
Weekly Challenge:
This week, we have a challenge that just might radically shift your healing journey into a more clear and straight forward path. I know this kind of work did that for me—I started getting all of my answers this way. Noelle challenges us to tap into our body’s wisdom by asking it everyday (multiple times a day) what it needs to heal. Then…LISTEN. This is as simple as getting quiet for a few moments, putting a hand on your heart and just asking, “OK, sweet bod, what can I give you today to support your healing?” You might be surprised what answers pop up, you guys. Whatever your body tells you (even if it’s the craziest thing you ever heard) try to do it and see what happens. Keep me posted on your progress @sheajackie or by contacting me here. All questions are welcome.
