MY FERTILE WOMB LIFESTYLE JOURNEY
Hello. I'm Cathyann Greenidge-Ellison (AKA Ni'Ankh), Fertile Womb Lifestyle Specialist and F.L.O.W. Coach. This is the story of how I overcame asthma and a diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome naturally.
The first decision ...
Growing up with grand parents who suffered from lifestyle health issues like high blood pressure and diabetes, I made the decision at 13 years old to eat healthy. Some of the key changes I made was no more beef, no more white bread and increasing my fruit and vegetable intake.
No more asthma attacks ...
At 14 years old I was cured of asthma which I was plagued with from age 9. This was all due to herbal recommendations from a family friend who was an herbalist. I enjoyed going to his home to get fresh, in season fruits.
Diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome ...
In 1997 I was told that I had Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) which, according to my OB/GYN, meant that I have larger ovaries than most women, I would go through menopause early and I would not have any children. I felt that to be a bit off balance as I was having regular monthly moon cycles.
I switched to a female OB/GYN who was also a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine. In our first consultation, I shared the information about my supposed diagnosis of PCOS. The first question she asked was if I was having a regular monthly cycle. I said yes. She then said that as long as my cycles were regular, I should be able to conceive. I was in a relationship for 9 years and never became pregnant.
In 2005, I decided to take my health to another level. I started with a deep colon cleanse which resulted in me losing 7lbs of colonic waste in 2 weeks. I significantly increased my water intake. I added colonics to my regimen. I did an elimination diet to find out how my body responded to the different food groups. I tracked my digestive system's transit time. I increased my raw food intake. I also added therapeutic grade essential oils, digestive enzymes, and chlorophyll to my daily diet.
Present Time ...
I ended that 9 year relationship. I am now married to an awesome man who I am connected with on a deep spiritual level. I delivered our first child on 8 September, 2011 at a beautiful water home birth.
I experienced first hand that balancing the spiritual, emotional and physical aspects of our lives are key. Thank you so much for reading about my journey. I look forward to connecting with you to see how I may be of assistance with YOUR FERTILE WOMB LIFESTYLE JOURNEY ...
