A Client’s Journey: Healing Lupus by Returning to a Simpler Life

OOver the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients who show me that real healing isn’t always about adding more — it’s often about removing what doesn’t serve us.

One client’s story stands out. A woman in her early 30s who had been living with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) for nearly a decade. By the time she reached out to me, she had exhausted every option: medications, alternative therapies, restrictive diets, and nothing gave her lasting relief.

“It felt like I was surviving more than living,” she told me.
“My body and I were in constant battle.”

She wasn’t chasing quick fixes. She was ready for a full reset — physically, emotionally, and environmentally.

🌿 The Turning Point: A Simpler, Cleaner Life

We started by gently peeling back the layers of modern overwhelm — and clearing out toxins that were quietly wearing down her immune system.

Together, we designed a healing lifestyle focused on reducing inflammation, toxic load, and stress — while nourishing her body with nutrient-rich, ancestral principles.

Her routine became what she lovingly called her “wild woman lifestyle.” But it was far from chaotic — it was deliberate, rooted, and deeply healing.

🧼 What Changed?

1. 🥩 A Clean, Ancestral Diet — Free from Toxins

• Nutrient-dense foods: organic meats, organs, seafood, pasture-raised eggs
• No ultra-processed food, seed oils, additives, or gluten
• Simple cooking: stews, bone broths, boiling with fresh garlic, ginger, spring onion, sea salt
• No plastic containers, non-stick pans, or artificial sweeteners
• When flavoring was needed, she used aged, gluten-free soy sauce (no preservatives)

2. 💧 Pure Hydration & Targeted Supplements

• Filtered, boiled water
• Homemade electrolyte mix (sea salt + potassium chloride)
• Vitamin C and occasional zinc or magnesium as needed
• Completely eliminated sugary drinks, flavored waters, and commercial supplements filled with fillers

3. 🧘‍♀️ Daily Movement & Gentle Rhythms

• Morning walks, slow jogging, uphill strolls — barefoot when possible
• Natural sunlight exposure daily
• Avoided gyms with synthetic smells or fluorescent lighting
• No pushing, no punishing routines — just daily flow

4. 🛏️ Sleep & Nervous System Reset

• Screens off early, red lights at night
• Natural fabrics for bedding and clothing
• No synthetic fragrances or air fresheners in the home
• Gentle breathwork before bed for nervous system support

5. 🧼 A Low-Toxin Home

• Switched to eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products
• Removed plastic storage containers and BPA-lined cans
• Ditched synthetic skin care — replaced with a simple oil blend and gentle soap
• No perfume — replaced with essential oils (used sparingly)

💥 The Transformation

One year in, everything shifted. Her chronic knee pain vanished.
Her energy returned, no longer crashing by 3 PM.
Her sleep deepened, and her skin glowed.

She stopped relying on painkillers, sedatives, or “flare kits.”
Her confidence came back — and so did her joy.

“I didn’t realize how toxic my environment had become until I cleared it out. Once I removed all the noise — food toxins, household chemicals, emotional clutter — my body finally had space to breathe, and to heal.”

🌱 The Lesson: Reduce the Rubbish

We live in a world full of invisible toxins — not just in what we eat, but in what we breathe, wear, touch, and think.

Reduce the rubbish your body has to process.
Reduce the chemicals, clutter, and noise.
Give your body the clean space it needs to remember how to heal.

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being intentional.
