This has helped me a lot! Thank you. I am very self-effacing and open, which I tend to think relates to my astrology, my sign (Virgo), and my dominant energy (earth). Indeed these can be negative traits, especially if one (like myself) has inadequacy issues. I always tell myself lately that I've overcome them completely, yet there always is that voice in my mind that compares myself to others, largely due to health issues that I feel like no other person can truly relate to or comprehend.
That being said, yours and others' posts on natural plant remedies and meditations has given me that extra boost in the right direction. I've been much less stressed out about ibs/malabsorption symptoms and have been seeing improvements. Proper sleep and exercise has been helping me with proper motility and feeling more hungry and thirsty, whereas poor sleep often leaves me feeling more bloated and less hungry and (in-turn) less thirsty due to a lack of electrolytes. I do feel that I have permanent issues (I had abdominal surgery when I was born and even struggle greatly to do sit-ups).
Doctors and x-rays have been to no avail, giving me the usual 'you're a little blocked up and you need more fiber.' I won't go into further details regarding any complication(s) that I experience, but I will say that this website has given me the best tools possible to overcome anything, even if it appears in my logical mind physically impossible.
Everything has to be in such a balance, especially for me. I do hope that I one day can eliminate these problems completely. I just need to tell myself that I will. It's not easy but I'm guessing that's the only approach; always moving forward and never looking back. I also need to tell my left brain to stop fixating on things constantly. Void meditation? That's the only thing I can think of for that.
Anyway, I am sorry to write a whole novel as I tend to do and I truly feel that I owe you and everyone here a lot in recompense for your time.
