Fighting Parkinson's Drug Free

Today is Friday, June 11, 2021, and I am sitting in my office in Warren, Oregon. Eleven years ago today, it was Friday, June 11, 2010, and I was sitting in my living room in Tampa, Florida. I would like you to join me there.

I have said many times that in my recovery, I had to learn to stop thinking so much, and just “do.”

On June 12, 2021, I will be eleven years with no Parkinson’s symptoms. Eleven years with no Parkinson’s Disease. I am cured. I am joyful. I am grateful.

How we communicate is very important. I, being in the States, am communicating in English. For many of you, English is not your first language. Fortunately, there are translators so you can understand my blog posts. However, this week, I learned another important lesson about language that I will share with you today.

Two posts ago, I wrote about opening your heart. In my last blog post, I wrote about the one-year anniversary of Elaine’s full recovery. These blog posts have sparked many inquiries into the issue of “loving yourself.” Today, I will address this further.

WOW! Elaine is one year symptom free. How inspiring is that! Last year in the middle of May, Elaine had her full recovery. Now, here we are, one year later from my May 15, 2020 blog post post entitled, “Fighting Parkinson’s, and Elaine J. is symptom free!” 

In my previous post, “Fighting Parkinson’s, and your internal energy flow,” I explained how the physical part of the Recipe gets the body reconnected with the brain. Today, we will look at how the mental and spiritual aspects of the recovery come into balance with the necessity of opening your heart.

A fairly regular inquiry I receive relates to movement going well in one moment, and then shortly thereafter, the movement is slow, or feet are stuck to the floor, or movement is frozen altogether. Today we explore what is happening.

I will be the first one to acknowledge that fighting Parkinson’s requires a lot of hope and a lot of faith. However, I also will be the first one to tell you that no matter how much hope and faith you have in your recovery, hope and faith without action are meaningless in Parkinson’s recovery.

I can hear the resounding excitement of today’s topic. Ugh! I have some new and interesting information to share with all of you that will motivate you to make water your drink of choice.
