This channel helps bring knowledge of the body to everyone. Dr. Amy Novotny describes the PABR® Institute's approach to healing and she interviews other notable people in the health and wellness world. The PABR® method is a holistic approach to restoring the body to its full potential by using the body’s own nervous system. It is a step-by-step process to change the way the body feels and moves. This is not physical therapy which is a modality that’s applied to you externally. Rather, the PABR® method transforms you through internal changes that you learn and can control. We coach you through breathing and body awareness techniques that are customized to help you achieve what’s missing in your life. If you want to return to a specific activity, movement or sport, then your sessions will be tailored towards those goals. We take the time to get to know you in one-on-one sessions with only you and your specialist developing your plan to address your limitations and your goals.
The secret to helping men with their mental health according to psychotherapist Marc Azoulay
Did you know that men often need strategies to help them through trauma that differs from women?
We talked about these concepts, and more in this week’s episode of the Reawaken Your Health podcast with psychotherapist Marc Azoulay. Marc has been a psychotherapist for over a decade and shared his journey into this field after surviving trauma in his childhood followed by drug addiction and recovery in his college years.
Marc explained his dive into Buddhism and psychoanalytic theory that helped him become clean and sober. He shared how he was able to face his demons and use Buddhism philosophy to help him realize that he is pure at his core and could use meditation to gain clarity.
We then discussed why he began treating men and why he pushes to help mental health treatment get up to speed for males. He shared how both political ends of the spectrum can be damaging to males and their mental health.
Marc explained one of the biggest issues related to men’s mental health: loneliness. He notes that men are not taught to connect and the competitive nature and judgment that surrounds a man’s emotional state can lead to a variety of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, and substance abuse.
We then explored how treatment for men can differ from women in that men are more object-oriented and need action. Marc explained how he has to challenge his clients and get them to see that the idea of sharing is not weak but powerful.
We discussed psychodrama and how it helps Marc achieve results with his clients. He also explained the idea of process circles and the use of the meso poetic heroes journey.
We covered much more on anger and rage, as well as the need for group therapy and retreats. Marc went into the detail on the need for individualized therapy prior to group sessions, where men form a community and bond.
Marc is the founder of Men’s Therapy Online and leads wilderness retreats to help his clients release from the past.
Please join us to learn more about the importance of addressing issues of mental health for the man in your life.

"Both Jana and I have benefited greatly from your course.

Dr. Amy Novotny founded the PABR® Institute with the mission to provide pain, stress and anxiety relief to those who seek a naturalistic form of treatment when other treatment methods have fallen short. Her unique approach comes from her experience treating in a variety of settings and with a wide range of patient populations over the past 15 years. Her background in orthopedics, sports, geriatrics, balance disorders, nerve injuries, and most recently, chronic pain; and influences from coursework at the Postural Restoration Institute gave her the foundation to develop this treatment method to address a wide variety of painful and restrictive conditions. She customizes all treatment plans to the individual to help them achieve their goals, whether it is to pick up a child, get through a work day pain free or play a sport. She co-authored two #1 Best-Selling books Don’t Quit: Stories of Persistence, Courage and Faith and Success Habits of Super Achievers, which share her journey on how and why she developed the PABR® Method. She also co-authored Wall Street Journal Best Seller, From WTF to OMG, With a Little LOL: Unpacking Entrepreneurs' Hidden Lessons. Her ability to speak French and Spanish has allowed her to communicate with and help various clients from all around the world, including France, Mexico, Central America and South America. She has a variety of interests including running 40+ marathons, running 10 ultra marathons (including two 100 milers), completing an Ironman triathlon, photographing wildlife and landscapes all over the world that has led to several of her images being chosen as Photos of the Day, most notably National Geographic Your Shot World Top Photo of the Day.

Where do younger B100?
Wonderful. So how should we relax? Switch sides often? I tend to lie/lean to one side.
Hi. The relaxation part can be difficult depending on the person. That's what I work with people on. Generally speaking, your ribs need to relax down and in to get your back muscles to relax. You can try switching sides often but ideally you want to be able to sit straight back or stand with a neutral spine.
This makes sense. Thank you!
Oh good. Glad to hear that! Thanks for the feedback!
White Robert Anderson Michael Anderson Joseph
Thanks for sharing with others!
This is so interesting and I must mention that after my first colonoscopy I started having gut issues and not sleeping well. Wonder if this is all connected...hot flashes, heart palpitations...on and on
I'm sorry to hear you had those issues after your colonoscopy. I'd definitely consider it and speak to your GI doc or PCP to see about the possibilty.
Very helpful. Thank you.
You're welcome! I hope you can implement the tips! Thanks for commenting!
This is the least helpful video I have seen about standing from a low seat. Most people with this problem have either bad knees, bad hips, weak muscles etc ... information about centre of gravity, foot placement, creating some momentum etc would be useful.
If you watch the video fully, you can see that I am describing a way to change your mechanics so that you learn to use your thighs differently to help with all the issues you mentioned. I don't mind doing another video with the information you mentioned and I appreciate that feedback. This video was designed for people who wanted a simple approach with changing their mechanics.
Hi! Thanks so much for this informative video :) I was wondering if I have to lean back if I use my exercise bike in a recumbent position? I usually lean forward (straight back, not arching) and hold the bars to engage my abs (the bars are chest level for my bike since it converts between upright and recumbent).
Hi! It really depends on how your body is positioned on the bike. If you are trying to get a leg workout, I'd recommend leaning back into the support so you can focus on your thigh muscles learning to do the work. If you are sitting up straight, you are training your back muscles.
So then going to the doctor for preventative check ups is a bad idea as a diagnosis of something would scare the majority especially like a cancer diagnosis
When you go to a doctor for a preventative check up, you typically don't get a cancer diagnosis at that time. You get might get referred for additional testing to explore what's going on. So, I wouldn't say preventative check ups are bad and I don't believe Katherine feels that way either.
in general Fear is a major factor in most of our disorders and problems. Whatever the diagnosis We must consider it an offer and it will pass sooner or later We don't stop there for long. Fear of illness is illness.
@@waelalmazloum7189 Yes, definitely true. If we take information and look at solutions, we can learn to minimize fear and take action, whether it's lifestyle changes, mental health changes or other treatment.
This is so fulfilling, thank you for posting this Interview, it really means a lot as there are not many male spaces to talk about these kinds of things. You truly are a miracle worker 🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for watching and commenting! I'm glad there are therapists like Marc who are helping men like this!
How bout foot flopping… I can’t lift my foot up.
Hi. Foot flopping is another common issue that can come from a variety of reasons. Sometimes it can be a result of a low back nerve issue but it can also come from an injury in the lower leg. We can chat about it more if you want to sign up for a free consult. Thanks! www.pabrinstitute.com/services#book
I just realized this exact thing, that I have been walking without extending my leg behind the body, in effect not using my glutes to their potential, partially adding to anterior pelvic tilt creating lower back pain. Thank your for demonstrating this!😊
You're welcome Henrik! It's more common than people realize. Good luck on fixing this and reach out if you need help. Thanks! Amy

Hi Victor. What kind of help are you looking for with your health?
I have worked with Amy and she is incredible! When I started my sessions with her, I couldn’t walk for more than 10 minutes or stand for more than 5 without pain. I was a mess. Just today my neighbor saw me strolling through the neighborhood and commented on how well I was walking 😊. I am now playing disc golf again and just spent more than an hour playing pickle ball, which was unimaginable a year ago. Her wholistic approach is fantastic. Thanks, Amy!
Wow! Thanks so much for sharing this Duncan! I really appreciate it! I didn't realize you returned to disc golf and pickle ball! Woo hoo!

Is the liquid or powdered clay better
Hi Alycia. I've only used the powdered clay since I like to control how much I use and can adjust.
@@DrAmyNovotnyWhat Brand of clay are you using? Thanks
Hi, Dr. Amy! I'm 59 with osteoporosis and herniated L4-L5 and L5-S1 discs. To gain leg strength, I will purchase a recumbent bike. What brand(s) do you recommend for a modest budget? Thanks for your videos! Cathy
Hi Cathy, Instead of a particular brand, I'd try to go to a sports shop and try out the bikes. There are so many types out there and you want to make sure you can sit in one and try it out to see if it fits to your body. You want a seat that reclines a tiny bit so that your whole back can touch it. Then the pedals need to adjust to the length of your legs. There is not one best one out there. You really need to try a variety out at a store. Thanks!

People who live in the far north where there is very little sunlight for months…how do they get enough vitamin D?
Sperti Vit D lamp or supplements
@@iot577 and before vitamin pills and lamps?
Unfortunately, you'll have to do supplements or a lamp as was suggested. I'd still try to get outside as much as possible.
@DrAmyNovotny yes, that's what I try to do. It's very difficult to get strong light November-April in Ireland, where I live. Although any light is better than nothing. I find the Sperti vit D lamp to be excellent during these months. 3 times per week, 4 or 5 mins per session, as advised.
@@iot577 That's great you're on top of it and aware. Not many people are. I can imagine it would be hard in a northern climate like that. Great job!
I don't think there's really any such thing as an "autoimmune" disorder because the human body isn't stupid. It isn't attacking its own body. According to scientist, Lida Mattman, PhD, what the immune system is really going after are the "stealth" Cell-Wall-Deficient bacteria hidden in those tissues. CWD bacteria cells are so tiny that they're as small as, or even smaller than, the cells of a virus. In addition, it takes months for them to be seen on a petri dish so pretty much all lab tests miss them because their tests only run for up to 3 days. Other scientists are saying Vitamin D isn't really a vitamin, that it's a natural steroid which was misclassified as a vitamin back in the 1920s. So I wonder if that's one reason why people feel better after taking it: are they, in fact, taking a (natural) steroid? In addition, scientists say this D-substance feeds the CWD bacteria. They LOVE the stuff so, of course, they multiply and grow stronger, eventually making us sicker. I avoid taking "Vitamin" D supplements. (There are websites and YT videos on the science behind the "Marshall Protocol.") What finally cured my heart disease was homeopathy. It has cured so many problems in my family, even my loved one's "incurable" "bipolar with psychosis" and another relative's so-called "schizophrenia." (What they both seem to have had was Toxoplasmosis, a common cause of mental disorders typically misdiagnosed as "bipolar" or "schizophrenia," likely contracted from our sick cat.) -- Linda, author of "Goodbye, Quacks - Hello, Homeopathy!"
Thanks for sharing this Linda. I have many clients who use homeopathy as well as take vitamin D. Yes, vitamin D is mislabeled and it's a hormone that's produced in our body in response to sunlight. So many of our conditions are related to a multitude of factors and finding the right solutions can take time and be frustrating. I'll look into the CWD bacteria!
@@DrAmyNovotny I so agree with you, Dr. Amy. It's just my theory, but I think CWD bacteria are the same thing as the miasms. As you probably already know, if someone contracts, say, syphilis and has it treated with high-dose, short-term antibiotics, the bacteria just run and hide somewhere in the body. They often don't show up in the bloodstream but they're still there. They don't come out again until the coast is clear and they often simply pleomorph into CWD bacteria. The founder of homeopathy, Dr. Hahnemann, discovered the same thing 200 years ago even though he didn't use microscopes. Back then, syphilis was treated with mercury (!) which turned the illness into what he termed a miasm. They sure seem to be the same thing as CWD bacteria. I really can't tell the difference. I'm not a doctor or scientist, just someone who is fascinated by homeopathy and use it to cure pretty much everything in my family. BTW, there are lots of medical doctors who now treat their patients with homeopathy. According to the science underlying the "Marshall Protocol," (videos here on YT) people feel better with "Vitamin" D because it feeds their CWD bacteria, making them happy so they are not so hungry or aggressive. Scientists say that when we do this time and again, often decade after decade, these bacteria grow stronger and are what eventually overwhelm the body and kill us. The Marshall Protocol did help my heart a little - but homeopathy cured what was causing all the palpitations, skipped beats and other "gymnastics." That was years ago. - Linda, author of "Goodbye, Quacks - Hello, Homeopathy!" (It's about how psychiatry is quackery and cures no one - and is also a primer on homeopathy.)
How do we get an appointment with you?. I live in New Zealnd
Hi. Sorry, I missed this comment. You can schedule a free consult here: www.pabrinstitute.com/services#book. I work with clients in Australia and New Zealand so we are able to navigate the time difference easily. Thanks!
please make a seperate video on what helped your relative to stand on toes again. thankyou.
Thanks for requesting this. It's not a simple solution that applies to everyone. I work with people over several sessions to address what their body uniquely needs. I wish it were as simple as what you're suggesting but each case is different. I hope you can understand that. Thanks.
@@DrAmyNovotny yeah, but atleast we can try those things if that works good if that doesn't fine.
@@shubhammehra4300 I understand what you are saying but this approach is completely different. It's not like PT or personal training where you give someone exercises and see if it works. I analyze your body and it's movements and determine what you need. We work on that and see if you can sense a change. That determines the next step. If you don't feel something, we adjust. I don't just guess and hope people get better. It is uniquely dependent on your body, which uniquely got into the current situation. Thanks!
@@DrAmyNovotny okay, i just want to know was it just exercises or something else also that your relative did?
@@shubhammehra4300 Thanks. It wasn't just normal everyday exercises. It's specific exercises for his body that unwound what he had done to himself over the years.
Ty boss
You're welcome @catedoge3206. I hope this video helped!
Wow I stumbled upon this open focus/feeling space in my own meditation explorations (I think this is the same thing that would be called "the felt sense of being" in meditation language.) I kind of underestimated its significance for a while because it seemed almost too easy but now do this all throughout the day. It's basically instant liberation, you are immediately "unstuck" from some inner point of view or fixation and feel clear and open and free and not in opposition to anything. I imagine the space expanding to include the entire universe and everything the you can perceive. Amazing shift in a matter of seconds. Fantastic to hear the brain science behind this!
Hi Keith! Ooh, thanks for sharing your experience. Yes, it sounds like you have it down. It's amazing to feel calm and have open focus at the same time. Once you learn how to do it, it becomes easier to achieve!

Hi Nora, I'm sorry to hear that. Have you done some work to calm your body to alleviate the insomnia? Sarah has passed away so she isn't able to advise you on the aminos. You could check with a naturopath in your area though.
I agree with the subject matter but too many damn commercials.
Oh shoot. I'm sorry about that!
@@DrAmyNovotny No apologies necessary. Not your fault. I should upgrade to TH-cam premium. Again, I agree wholeheartedly with your guest and appreciate your interview style.
@@AriePharmD Thanks for your understanding! Dr. Stasha is wonderful!
I took 10.000iu of Dr Berg vit D3 with vit k and I got upper back pain???
Hi Steve, I'm sorry to hear that. It would be good to get looked at by your PCP. I'd get checked out to look at your body position too and see if something tightened up as well.
Great Info.
Thanks for watching @bulletproof890
Is it safe to drink a spoon of bentonite clay in water every day?
Hi Veronika. Ran suggests starting small with a teaspoon in your water. Thanks!
@@DrAmyNovotny thank you:)
@@veronikailovepuppies9489 You're welcome Veronika!
Has your clay been tested for Lead?
Great question. Please out to him!
He is not a doctor right? Just an author so take this info and process it along with advice from others such as your ND -Doctors and Chiropractors
Thank you for commenting. Yes, Ran is not a physician.
You said you have been eating it for 30 years so why weren't you eating it the time you got sick in Ensenada it would have prevented the illness
I'm not sure who you are referring to??
The man in the video, who wrote a book, said he's been eating clay for over 30 years. She was referring to him.
I have exactly same issue now, can you please help me?
Thanks for reaching out Srinivas. I responded to your email!
I don’t believe she’s correct about weight being a dose factor… there’s a lot of research about that and her patients don’t present with obesity so she’s not aware-
Thanks for sharing your opinion. I recommend discussing this with her since I don't recall her chatting about the weight status of all her patients.
Dairy bad? Raw?
Hi Diana, Some people feel that certain types of dairy are okay whereas others react to it poorly. Sarah looked at the impact of amino acids on how people feel. I'm a person who does not eat dairy because I feel much better when I'm not consuming it in any form. Thanks!
Do u have email address...I got this condition with my left foot .and I'm confused how to get normal again
Hi Cynthia! Please send me a message through here and it will come to me: www.pabrinstitute.com/contact
I have this right now. What are my options..
Hi. You can get evaluated by a physical therapist or neurologist or both. A PT might be able to help. We could also chat if you want to do some nervous system work: www.pabrinstitute.com/services#book
Lots of your vids mention the importance of taking pressure off your back. I've been having back issues for almost 20 years and am always looking for tips on how to do things "back friendly"! It's never too late. Thanks!
You're welcome! Yes, we are so back dominant and eventually the back starts singing and telling you to stop! It's great you are receptive to learning how to switch things up so your back doesn't take the brunt of your movements!
Problematically "ancestral ways" are too often interpreted as meaning only a century or few. The refining of flours into degermed, dehulled ocurred centuries ago. Coconuts by the way may be a major contributor to the shortened lifespans of Polynesians, and one CANNOT in good conscience prescribe significant use of that saturated fat. Do beware of foods limited by habitat, and understand the facultative differences in r- and K- selection occurring in different populations, however "ancestral." Consider also the severe effects of presence, for example, of alcoholic, dissociated, abusive fathers. Psychological studies have noted the extreme correlation of obesity with early abuse. Over 97.5% of obese report increased threat perception - unrelieved stress, to more generally identify the problem. In that massive percentage in light of the cognitively destructive effects on the brain and in our dense, unrelieved social exposure, itself a factor in unrelieved stress, it is to be expected that a significant reluctance of the other 2.5% to admit truthfully to experiencing extreme discomfort, that the percentage may in fact approach nearly 100%. Religion is also a suppressor of normal cognition, replacing clear introspection with dogma, false guilt, false ingroup comparison, increased threat perception beyond anyreasonable norm. Whether entombed in a culture prescribing killing of apostates, as occurs in far beyond a billion humans, or in social exclusion, another equal number exposed to the destructive effects on familial and general inclusive, altruistic love (children seeing through the coercion and social rejection occurring within family by religion, DO experience forcible outgrouping in this culture to an extent larger than admitted). "Comfort foods" available in fast food outlets, certainly contribute to the persistence/addiction to all these cognitive, emotional, ingrouping/outgrouping factors. As obligate social animals, we are subject to making continuing poor choices due to social forces upon our need to feel safe, desired, secure. While no single factor may be sufficient, the web of malignant social effects rather surely does surpass sufficiency, and though "addiction" is improper attribution, we can use the term, as the universe of factors inducing persistence of antihealthful behaviors IS well defined by Coercive Addiction, an ill as destructive as abusive forced child prostitution or violent enslavement, IS forced upon individuals through the two specified her in my note, resulting in what is ERRONEOUSLY termed "epidemic." It is each of us, failing to become aware and act counter to, those abuses, who remain CAUSAL factors to poor health. In and since medieval times, the young, evolved to outbreed rather than inbreed, flocked to the markets and fairs that became cities. Since those odd excrescences now attract humans throughout their entire lives until older ages, we might well include this as coercive and destructive social pressure, as it may be causal to the desire to abandon natural affiliative attachments. The illusion of endless alternatives, preventing development of such necessary attributes as forgiveness, openness to resolve disputes, and other perhaps once more universal and courageous behaviors, is, as this unedited note indicates, part of that web of coercive malignancy. (see, btw, Stanford Forgiveness Project, to understand how intimacy is necessary, and requisite!, to resolve even the most severe breakdowns in the healthy relationships absolutely essential to health, longevity, and full cognitive development.
This helps a lot. I sat like the position shown here for a year or so most of the time and suddenly I have had issues with neuropathy and sciatica. I had a spine problem originally that made me lay a lot. I came on this accidentally and it is sooo helpful! Thanks!
Thanks so much for letting me know Doreen. I'm glad this helped. Our bodies are not designed to be in one position for a long time or repetitively even if our positioning is correct. I hope you found some help for your sciatica and neuropathy!
Omgoodness That is such great advice. Thank you!!!
You're welcome! It really is true and makes a difference!
Why would I pass an EMG done on my leg and hip if a nerve is pinched? I can not lift up on toes on right leg. My low back muscle does tighten when I lift my right knee. How do I get that low back muscle to release? I have a tender spot right of my lower thoracic spine?
Hi. If the EMG was fine on your leg and hip, that means the muscles themselves are okay. You could be having a disruption in the nerve signal coming out of your back that goes down into your calf to prevent you from going up on your toes. To get the back muscle to release depends on how your body is positioned. I can't tell you that without looking at you because I could give you the wrong advice and easily make things worse. I'd be happy to chat more if you want to learn more. www.pabrinstitute.com/services#book
am i missing something here he didnt once mention bentonite clay ??
Hi. He uses Montmorillonite clays which I guess are the same as bentonite clay 🙂
I was so excited that I might have an opportunity to work with her and went straight to her webpage to see about signing up for an appointment with her, but wasn’t having much luck, so went on Facebook and that’s when I discovered that she actually passed away. What a great loss for all of us! 😢 i’ve just discovered her yet I was gutted to hear about her passing as if I had known her for years.
I know. I was very saddened to hear of her passing. Shocked actually. I don't know the details but I wanted to keep her interview up so people could still learn and maybe find another practitioner similar to her.
I’m very grateful you did leave it up because there’s already been a few found keys to some health issues that were locked up from dealing with fluoroquinolone toxicity for nearly 5 now. What a shame it doesn’t appear that she wrote a book herself with her vast knowledge
@@Irehs222 Oh, I'm so glad to hear you still found benefit to the interview. Yes, I don't believe she did. She was such a nice person and so vibrant.
Very interesting information! It all resonates. I experience crushing mental health problems when I eat junk foods. She is right, it is sooooo addicting. You can get stuck there if you don't get help. If I want to be happy, I need the proper diet and supplements. I order healthy foods from a meal prep company when I'm tired of cooking. Best investment I've ever made in my health. I didn't realize the supplements after one minute would already be producing an effect? I have been trialing aminos for many years now. I hadn't realized there's an amino that can help with endorphins/hug feelings! I just started on DPA this week after that discovery. Do you have opinions about iodine? I have read it requires the right cofactors or can be unsafe, so I'm not currently taking. I have stopped a cold in its tracks with it before. I have read (potential) positives it may have for the thyroid, preventing cancers, etc. I also had my methylation genes tested so I've been exploring that angle of health too. It's a lot to unpack with all these pathways and whatnot. But when you've suffered, you're willing to study and implement. I studied to be a pharmacist so I nerd out on this stuff. I don't respond well to most meds so it's been helpful to find some alternative options.
Great video! I’m learning so much about this vitamin d, interesting I take 7,000 iu and just was tested and I’m low! I also have sleep apnea! I will maybe add k2 I’m thinking it’s not getting absorbed
Thanks for sharing Tracy. Yes, as Dr. Gominak says, dosage does not mean anything in terms of what your blood vitamin D levels are. Feel free to reach out to her as well if you need help or ideas. She's very responsive!
There is a formula in the Vitamin D sites- take the 65 ng goal level-minus what your level is now - times 35 - times your weight- that is what you need to mega dose in 4 doses - mine was 85k in x4 days - then do the 20-25K iu daily for maintenance a couple weeks then retest
Along with 100 vit k 2 for each 10k of vit d and 800-1000 magnesium
@@lmyers9999 Thanks for sharing this formula. Do you have the website that I can pass along to her?
@@lmyers9999 Thanks for sharing your opinion. I highly recommend anyone work with a health practitioner for their specific recommendations using bloodwork to check.
Such a nice lady and smart!!!
Yes, Mary, she was. Very sad to hear she passed away.
@@DrAmyNovotny Aww she passed. So smart!!!
I cannot get the free online to allow me to sign up. It appears to be discontinued.
Hi. I just updated my written description. Unfortunately, Sara passed away due to a sudden illness in 2023. 😞
BARLEANS FLAX OIL helped my client come completely out of a long depression. Joy was in her late 50s. I owned a pain treatment clinic here in Carnation Wa. I was a myoskeletal therapist and had overcome devastating headaches and back pain. I got well after years of suffering suffering and bought the clinic. Joy had been a crime scene investigator 17 years earlier. She had fallen at the scene of an investigation and broken spinous processes off in her back and neck. She had a couple fused vertebrae but they were done minimally and with bone. She was sent to me by a professor, i had helped with anxiety issues from the local Kirkland College. Joy had blinding migraines, stiffness and back pain. Besides all the heavy heat packs, massage, ROM stretches, arnica and epsom salts baths and massage, Joy was feeling much better but still depressed. She had already been cutting sweets, taking my favorite enzyme, megazymes and a good full spectrum probiotic. She had been on antidepressants for 17 years. All if these people as you know have stomach sleep issues. JOY had very dry skin and hair and said she felt like she seriously needed an internal lubricant. We decided on flax oil. She started taking 3 flax capsules with every meal. Within weeks she was acting strangely happy. Very very happy, singing, laughing. She claimed she felt she had come out of a tunnel and that is why she was so happy. She ran out once FOR ONLY A WEEK. When she came in for her massage appt, she said she was BLUE 💙. We discussed the changes and I asked her about the supplements. She said she had not taken the flax oil for a week. She stopped and got more on the way home that FRIDAY. Early on Sunday, two days later, she called singing hallelujah. She said she couldn't believe it, she was HAPPY again.
