Journey of Resilience on “Brain Retraining”
June 25, 2018
Rebekah from Journey of Resilience – who had been pursuing mold avoidance for a few years – discussed her experiences with brain retraining for re-emerging runaway environmental sensitivities in an article called “How I’m Using Brain Re-Training to Heal.”
From the article:
After a couple months of bouncing around (we left our home completely) and spending so much money re-buying, throwing away, and re-buying things, we finally settled in a pretty new townhouse to continue our detoxing and healing. I want to emphasize how important it is to leave the environment triggering the reactions.
It’s not like we hadn’t done this before, but it wasn’t this bad last time in 2016. And it was bad in 2016.
Over the past couple of months, I have gone to barely being able to walk (we had this one place outside we would drive to, so I could get fresh air, and each time I got back into the car my lips were white – obvious oxygen transport issues), to feeling a lot stronger.
My reactions have lessened a lot and I have made some great strides. The first positives that I noticed from DNRS was my ability to sleep in bed. I had gotten to the point where I was sensitive to the mattress, the polyester blanket, and the cotton sheets. My skin just burned whenever I laid down. I had other symptoms along with the burning, and I actually hadn’t been sleeping in a bed for about 6 months, even when we were in the house that was toxic. It’s so nice to not be on the hard floor anymore!
