Okay, so it has been well over two weeks since doing the “big detox”. To recap, I did the Colonic on the Monday, did three days of liquids and then did the Liver Flush day on the Thursday. Here is a video for you on my thoughts: My previous blog post might also give [...]

Does Endometriosis inevitably lead to Cancer? Something we might not realise about what Endometriosis is really a sign of.
by Melissa on February 5, 2012 in Endometriosis Symptoms, Featured Articles, Hormone Treatments
Over a year ago I went to see a “Westernised” Chinese Doctor – when I say “westernised”, I mean that she studied Chinese Medicine but wasn’t chinese and didn’t grow up there or learn the methods through history. From the onset of meeting her, I didn’t particularly like her. She was very aggressive in her [...]
How to de-stress, re-connect to yourself and find peace in one simple place!
by Melissa on February 4, 2012 in Healthy Lifestyle choices, Stress & Endometriosis
Our lives have become so focused on material possessions. We surround ourselves with things that are made of plastic, steel and various man-made objects. Our lives become an endless race to gain more of these material possessions which are hollow in their meaning and their status. Have you ever noticed how you cannot feel stressed, [...]
How to get your Immune System working properly, giving you the ability to fight off Endo and all those other nasties!
by Melissa on February 3, 2012 in Detoxing, Featured Articles
When we think of our immune system, we generally think we need to add stuff into our diet or use some kind of supplement to get it working better. It is like we are seeking “armour” for the body. This was my thinking too and for years I have taken all sorts of immune boosters, [...]
Should we be taking Plant Based Hormones for Endometriosis?
by Melissa on February 2, 2012 in Featured Articles, Hormone Treatments
To be honest, I struggle with this topic. There is so much misinformation when it comes to plant based hormones! It has almost tormented me since I started on this quest to overcome Endometriosis. It also depends so much on our age, our environment, our foods and our hereditary line! Plant based hormones are also called Phytoestrogens [...]
My First Totally Raw Pasta Experience! Wanna try it?
by Melissa on February 1, 2012 in The Endometriosis Diet
So after my meeting with my Naturopath and her telling me that there were still toxins trying to find their way out of my body, I decided that perhaps I should eat more raw food – just for a little while, until I got more toxins out. I went to the library and got out [...]
What I discovered today about the pain on my left side. This is so cool!
by Melissa on January 31, 2012 in Featured Articles, Reducing Endometriosis Pain
Well, it has been 5days since I did the big Liver Flush and I since then, my pain on my left side has gotten considerably worse, each day since. Well, I started to worry that I had somehow made my Endometriosis worse by doing the Liver Flush and that perhaps it was just all too [...]
Are you making your Endometriosis worse, every day, without even realising it?
by Melissa on January 31, 2012 in Detoxing, Healthy Lifestyle choices
When we look back at the statistics of Endometriosis, breast cancers and other womanly conditions, the figures are definitely on the increase…..unfortunately! We have to wonder what is different about today compared to then. Sure, many of the conditions, including Endometriosis may have simply not been diagnosed, however….Endometriosis has been discovered in children as young [...]
I did it! I did a full Liver Flush! The results are in….worth doing?
by Melissa on January 29, 2012 in Detoxing, Featured Articles
It has been a long week for me. I decided to follow through with my Colonic and did a full liver flush on Thursday. I was dreading it - admit ably. I figured it was the best time to do it. I had cleaned out my bowels and the Gallstones could all find their way out….without [...]
The Hot Debate about Omega 3 Oils. Are you taking any? Are they any good? Which ones should we be taking?
by Melissa on January 28, 2012 in Healthy Lifestyle choices, Hormone Treatments
The big campaign to have more Omega’s in our diet is certainly out there and everywhere you look, someone is suggesting that we should include these “essential” oils in our diet. In most cases, it is suggested that we couldn’t possibly get them through our diet and hence having to now explore supplements or taking [...]
Is your Treatment Plan for Endometriosis really working for you? Is it healing or merely suppressing symptoms?
by Melissa on January 25, 2012 in About Endometriosis - an introduction, Featured Articles, Hormone Treatments, Reducing Endometriosis Pain
I remember when my Treatment Plan for Endometriosis was quite different from what it is now. It is one I am sure you may identify with. I took the Contraceptive Pill continuously, took pain-killers and any other medications for the side-effects of the pill and went in for a Laparoscopy operation to “clean me out” [...]
The 3 Simple Keys to Good Health. If we do these three things, we are gonna feel better with Endometriosis!
by Melissa on January 24, 2012 in The Endometriosis Diet, Thoughts and Emotions
Sometimes we can get caught up in a massive overflow of information with this whole healing thing. It is easy enough to do. Contradictory information, all sorts of claims by various supplements, people claiming all sorts of cures….it can get overwhelming! Thing is, it does come down to three simple things according to David Wolfe. [...]

I just wanted to say, how enlightening your Site is, a dear friend of mine, has gone through hell and back, it has taken them three and a half years to finally diagnose that she has Endometriosis, and as a result it is quite advanced, she is now waiting for an operation. I have been reading up on the subject, because I want to be there for her, and to do that I need to understand the problems she is encountering, many thanks for laying it out so that it can be easily understood.
— Phillip
