S02 E02 – The Healing Crisis Explained: Understanding Your Body’s Response to Holistic Practices

For those experiencing health challenges or navigating therapeutic protocols, this episode offers a raw and insightful look into the complexities of the healing journey!

In this episode, Katie shares her personal struggle with chronic pain and her journey of undergoing intensive treatments to address dormant viruses, leading to severe healing crises. Meanwhile, Cris emphasizes the importance of mindset and self-compassion during tough times and the need for preparation before therapeutic protocols to minimize negative reactions.

Paragraph

Let's get your skin finally cleared up.

Acne is more than skin deep; it's a signal of internal imbalances. This explains why prescriptions, medicated creams, and high-end facials often fall short. Clearing your skin requires an inside-out approach, and we're dedicated to guiding you every step of the way.

Testimonials

"After a few months, my skin improved significantly."

Now my skin is completely blemish-free, I don’t even have to wear makeup. I don’t even break out around my cycle. I really owe it to Katie for her knowledge, and guidance during this clear skin journey. Thank you, Katie!!

"My scars and blemishes from the past continue to fade."

I'm grateful for the knowledge, strength and support to get current breakouts under control while my body continues to detox and heal.

Laurenne B.

"My skin is definitely consistently good now."

I feel like I didn't know why I would go through good spells before and then terrible breakouts. My energy levels and motivation have also returned. This is all so huge for me.

Sara P.

"I actually enjoy the look of my face with less make-up."

 I use to wear a lot of powder and concealer to cover the break out areas, as well as to hide my scars. Both my breakouts and scars are lessening in amount and redness!!
