🌿 Did You Know This About Your Body? 🌿

Your body is always working behind the scenes to keep you balanced… but it has a few favorite ways of asking for help.

Here are three signs your system is overwhelmed — not “broken,” just asking for support:

1. Morning stiffness or puffiness
This usually means fluid and lymph didn’t circulate well overnight. Your body detoxes the most while you sleep, so that morning “puffy” feeling is a sign things are moving… just slowly.

2. Feeling tired after meals
This isn’t normal. After you eat, blood shifts to your digestive organs. If you crash hard, your system may be dealing with inflammation, sluggish digestion, or stress hormones.

3. Tight shoulders and jaw for no reason
When your nervous system is stuck in “fight or flight,” your upper body becomes your shield. That tension is your body saying, “I don’t feel fully safe yet.”

Your body is incredibly intelligent.
These aren’t random symptoms… they’re messages.

Listen gently. Respond intentionally.
Healing always starts with awareness. ✨

Just read these… 🎯🎯🎯🎯

THE DISEASE IS THE HEALING.
EVERY SYMPTOM HAS PURPOSE.
EVERY SIGNAL IS INTELLIGENT.
YOUR BODY IS NOT BROKEN — IT’S REPAIRING.

We don’t suffer from disease — we experience the symptoms of healing.
What you feel as pain, fatigue, inflammation, or imbalance
is your body working to recalibrate, cleanse, and restore order.

You don’t “get sick” out of nowhere.
You detox. You repair. You adapt.
The body is constantly clearing, correcting, and building something new.

You only feel the disease
because you’re feeling the process of recovery.
Healing isn’t invisible — it’s intense, cellular, and intelligent.

Maybe it was never a malfunction.
Maybe it’s your body fighting for balance — doing what medicine forgot to recognize.

Every fever burns away pathogens.
Every inflammation rebuilds tissue.
Every fatigue is energy being redirected to restore you.

What we call disease is simply the body doing what it’s meant to do:
protect, purge, rebuild, renew.

When you stop fearing your symptoms,
you start understanding your healing.

Pinch to zoom, study the chart, and remember:
Your body never makes mistakes — the disease is the healing.

🚨 PSA: Diet sweeteners are the biggest scam of the century.

You know those packets labeled “zero calorie,” “sugar-free,” “diet,” or my personal favorite… “guilt-free”?
Yeah… they forgot to add “but will absolutely wreck your gut, hormones, and nervous system.” 🙃

Here’s the real tea… 🍵
Artificial sweeteners like aspartame, sucralose, acesulfame-K, and all their sneaky cousins…

❌ Spike insulin anyway
❌ Confuse your brain into craving MORE sugar
❌ Damage your gut lining
❌ Alter your microbiome
❌ Mess with detox pathways
❌ Trigger headaches, inflammation, anxiety, & cravings
❌ Make weight loss HARDER, not easier
❌ And your mitochondria… yeah, they’re crying 😭

“Diet” sweeteners are basically the toxic ex who promises they’ve changed… but the minute you let them back in, they drain you dry and leave you bloated, cranky, and wondering why your jeans betrayed you. 😩👖

If you want sweetness WITHOUT the metabolic chaos, go for:
✅ Stevia (pure, not the Franken-food blends)
✅ Monk fruit
✅ Raw honey
✅ Maple syrup (in moderation)
✅ Real, whole foods (your body loves real things… wild concept, I know)

Your body isn’t begging for “zero calorie.”
It’s begging for zero nonsense. 💁‍♀️✨

Choose foods that love you back.
Your gut… your hormones… your energy… and your mood will thank you. ❤️

Citric acid = mold.

Another thing on the ingredient list to avoid completely.

Manufactured citric acid - made from aspergillus niger mold.

“The woman developed severe joint and muscle pain in the upper and lower extremities with associated joint swelling, abdominal bloating with cramping and feeling enervated within 6–12 h of ingesting foods that contain added citric acid.”

“She sought consultations with rheumatologists, immunologists and allergists, none of whom found an explanation. Over a five year period, she underwent extensive work-ups for auto-immune disease, rheumatoid arthritis, vitamin deficiencies, as well as adrenal and thyroid imbalance, all of which were negative.

She attempted to eliminate gluten, dairy, and yeast, symptoms were minimally altered. She fenally noted that her symptoms followed ingesting certain pre-prepared foods, the commonality being presence of citric acid in the listed ingredients.

By age 47, she began avoiding all foods with added citric acid and noted a remarkable absence of her symptoms.

Subsequently, when she would feel the symptoms reported above after consuming pre-prepared foods or beverages, she would check the listed ingredients and always find that at least one of the foods consumed within the previous 12 h contained added citric acid.

The extent of her joint pain, abdominal discomfort and enervation was directly correlated with the amount of added citric acid ingested at a given time. If she consumed a meal in which a food item contained added citric acid and consumed a drink in which added citric acid was one of the leading ingredients, her symptoms were worse and lasted longer than if she consumed a single food item in which added citric acid was listed as a more minor ingredient. Even pre-prepared organic foods that were free of all additives except added citric acid would elicit her symptoms.”

SUPER VULNERABLE POST. Maybe the most yet!!😬

I never ask for anything for myself. I don’t mind asking for fundraisers for church or different ministries… but for me… nope!

And honestly, even writing this makes my heart beat a little faster. But God has made it clear these past few weeks in prayer: this is not about me. This is about His ministry to others.

I was led to this scripture before making this post. “You have not, because you ask not.” James 4:2

Recently, I felt the Lord calling me to attend a special training called Splankna. It’s a powerful, biblically grounded approach that connects trauma healing to the body and spirit, inviting the Holy Spirit into the process. It partners with God, the body, and the mind to bring true freedom.

This training was always held only in Colorado and I have never been able to swing that, but now… it’s live simulcast in Tennessee! Only 3 hours away!! October 23-27.

And this training aligns perfectly with the mission He has placed on my life… to help people overcome trauma, sickness, and strongholds through His power: HEALING! 😊

Splankna means, “here, let me help.” 🥹🙌🏼

When I first found out the cost, I thought, “How can I make this happen?” … then I realized with taking off for Fall Festival for a week and then another ministry for three days, I thought, “I can’t do this right now.”

And I thought, “God, I can’t ask for help on this. It’s for me.” But then a wise friend reminded me: “This isn’t for you. This is a ministry for others.”

That shifted everything.

And then I heard Him say, “Do not use your money for this.”

Wait, what God?

And the Lord confirmed it. He told me not to pay for this myself but to ask others IN FAITH. 😳 He then whispered, “Come expecting.”

Even in this, He is teaching me. Someone once told me, “If it doesn’t cost me something, I don’t want it.” And I realize what it’s costing me is my pride. Laying that down is part of the obedience He’s asking of me.

And already, God is making a way. I asked if the institute ever offered discounts… they said normally no. But then they offered me 50% off the training fee. That is $900 OFF!!

That was His confirmation: when He calls, He also provides.

Ok, God. What’s next?

“Ask.”

😳😳😳

So here I am, taking a deep breath and asking in faith.

Here’s the practical need:
-Training: $900
-Gas: $150
-Hotel (on-site at the training): $420
-Food: $150
-Missed work days: $600

Total: $2,220

This feels vulnerable to post, but I believe obedience is more important than my comfort. If God is nudging you to partner with me in this assignment, know that you are sowing into a ministry that will help people find freedom in body, mind, and spirit. This is a true mission and assignment from the Lord. Just like people raise money for mission trips… this is me going on a mission trip to bring this type of healing back to Evansville!

This will be run through my business accounts on CashApp and Venmo because this will be in service to others, which is my entire business model: Delanie’s Bodyworks and Wellness is a service oriented business.

This way, it is also 100% legit through my business account, bookkeeping and taxes. (I checked to make sure I can do this. All bases covered! ✅)

Lord knows I wouldn’t be asking for donations if He didn’t tell me to because this isn’t me. 🥴

I TRUST YOU LORD!!!

This will be under the Wellness category as I will be able to sit one-on-one with people in a therapy like setting to help them overcome trauma and strongholds while partnering with Jesus.

The Lord is bringing COMPLETE healing to our area in more ways than one… and this is a game changer! And the time is now! I just know!

He is ready to birth something new and He’s prepared me for this mission!

I am trusting Him, and I am coming expecting that the Lord, not me, will make a way. 🙏🏼

Anyone ever cook with lentils? I’m trying this recipe!:

Ground beef and lentil crockpot stew with veggies!

I’m adding ginger, turmeric, and roasting broccoli and zucchini later to add last minute!

Here’s why lentils are great!

Why Lentils Are So Good for You

1. Protein & Satiety
• About 18g protein per cup (cooked).
• Keeps you full without the crash—great for blood sugar stability.
• Pairs well with whole grains (like rice or quinoa) for a “complete protein.”

2. Fiber for Gut & Hormones
• Around 15g fiber per cup—hello, gut motility!
• Fiber binds to excess estrogen and toxins so your liver and gut can kick them out.
• Helps lower cholesterol and supports healthy weight management.

3. Nutrients That Matter
• High in iron (plant-based, better absorbed if you add vitamin C foods like broccoli or lemon).
• Rich in magnesium, folate, and B-vitamins—all crucial for energy, brain function, and reducing inflammation.
• Potassium helps balance sodium and supports heart health.

4. Blood Sugar Control
• Lentils have a low glycemic index, meaning they don’t spike blood sugar like refined carbs.
• Their combo of protein + fiber slows digestion = steady energy.

5. Functional Medicine Perspective
• Great for liver support (fiber + folate help methylation pathways).
• Inexpensive “prebiotic” food to feed good gut bacteria.
• Excellent swap when you want to cut down animal protein without sacrificing nutrients.

✨ Bottom line: Lentils are one of the best plant proteins out there—cheap, filling, and healing. They’ve been linked in studies to lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, and even certain cancers.

Well I just learned something new and fascinating!!!

*Why Detox Doesn’t Work If You’re Mineral Deficient*

Here’s the truth no one talks about: low minerals + high metals go hand in hand.

When your body doesn’t have the right building blocks, it substitutes with toxic metals just to keep you alive. It’s survival mode — but it comes at a cost.

Examples:
•Low zinc → the body lets cadmium or lead sneak in (wrecking DNA repair + immune defense)

•Low magnesium → aluminum takes its place (weakening ATP, your energy currency).

•Low calcium → bones soak up lead or barium (contributing to osteoporosis + joint pain).

•Low iron → the body “fills the gap” with nickel or manganese, but oxygen transport suffers.

👉 This is why so many people feel WORSE on detox or chelation protocols. You can’t take out the trash (metals) if you don’t have the workers (minerals). Instead of leaving, the metals just move deeper into tissues — brain, fascia, fat, nerves.

✅ The Fix
1.Rebuild minerals first: trace minerals, real salt, organ meats, sea vegetables, bone broth, copper + iron if low.

2.Open drainage: liver (bitters, taurine), lymph (dry brushing, fascia release), kidneys (hydration, electrolytes).

3.Bind gently: chlorella, bentonite, zeolite, citrus pectin.

4.Then — and only then — remove metals safely.

🧩 Big Picture

Toxic metals aren’t random. They’re squatters.
They move in when the right minerals aren’t there.

Healing isn’t just “detoxing.”
It’s evicting the squatters and rebuilding with the right bricks.

⚡ That’s why nutrient repletion is the FIRST step in any true healing journey.
