The Invisible Culprit: When Your Body Holds Onto What Your Mind Can’t See

A raw, messy story about healing beyond the physical realm

Oh mama, do I have a story for you. Grab your kombucha and settle in, because this one’s a doozy that’ll probably have your conventional doctor friends rolling their eyes so hard they’ll see their own brain stems. But here’s the thing—sometimes the most profound healing happens in the spaces where Western medicine fears to tread.

When Mexico Came Home With Me (And Not In a Good Way)

Picture this: Last summer, I’m living my best life in Mexico—you know how it is, feeling all worldly and adventurous. Then BAM. Some microscopic party crasher decides to set up shop in my gut. This little parasite latched onto the wreckage of my already-compromised gut like a vulture on roadkill. What followed was months of pure chaos—digestive upheaval that I won’t subject you to the details of but which turned every meal into Russian roulette.

Rice was safe on Tuesday. Wednesday? Rice was the enemy. Chicken broth was my friend until it wasn’t. I was living in this maddening loop where my body changed the rules faster than a toddler changes their mind about what they want for lunch.

When Conventional Medicine Shrugs Its Shoulders

Here’s where it gets interesting (and by interesting, I mean infuriating). I did all the “right” things. Doctor visits, stool tests, blood work—the whole conventional medicine song and dance. And sure, they suspected a parasite. Gave me ivermectin. Problem solved, right?

Wrong.

The little bugger was gone according to the tests, but my body was still acting like it was under siege. More testing revealed microbial toxins hanging around like unwelcome houseguests, so I dove into detox protocols with enthusiasm but…still sick and dealing with random food allergy flare ups. Still symptomatic. Still feeling like I was losing my damn mind.

Enter the Woo (Because Sometimes Woo Works)

This is where I’m going to lose some of you, and that’s okay. Not everyone is ready for this conversation, and I never thought to look at this stuff too. But desperation has a funny way of opening your mind to possibilities you never considered.

I turned to the Body Code—Dr. Bradley Nelson’s energy healing system that uses muscle testing to uncover what’s really going on beneath the surface. And y’all, what I discovered blew my mind wide open.

The physical parasite was indeed gone, but its energetic imprint was still there. Think of it like a ghost haunting your digestive system—all the chaos of an active infection without the actual bug. This energetic echo was driving my food allergies, shifting them daily like some kind of twisted kaleidoscope of symptoms.

The Epiphany That Changed Everything

Here’s what nobody talks about in medical school: pathogens don’t just affect us physically. They leave energetic fingerprints. These vibrational imprints can hang around long after the physical invader has been evicted, continuing to wreak havoc on our systems.

That past strep infection that cleared up years ago? Its energy might still be lingering, causing joint pain that no amount of anti-inflammatories can touch. That Epstein-Barr virus from college? It could be sitting in your biofield like a energetic squatter, driving fatigue that makes you feel like you’re running on empty even after twelve hours of sleep.

That stubborn yeast infection that finally cleared up after rounds of antifungals? Its energetic signature might still be there, causing sugar cravings and brain fog that make you feel like you’re living in a haze. Mold exposure from that sketchy apartment you lived in during your twenties? Even if you’ve moved on and detoxed, the energetic residue might still be triggering allergies and fatigue that conventional medicine can’t explain.

These invisible energies mess with our meridians, throw our chakras out of whack, and can completely tank our immune systems. They’re like master mimics, creating symptoms that look exactly like active infections while remaining completely invisible to lab tests.

And here’s the kicker—trapped emotions from being sick can amplify the whole mess. The fear, frustration, and anxiety from dealing with chronic illness can literally embed themselves in our tissues, creating an energetic feedback loop that keeps us stuck in the sick cycle.

Why Doctors Don’t Get It (And Why That’s Not Their Fault)

Before you start doctor-bashing, let me say this: our medical professionals aren’t deliberately ignoring this stuff out of spite. Their entire training is built around what can be measured, tested, and proven in clinical trials. They’re armed with blood work, imaging, and pharmaceutical solutions because that’s the toolkit they’ve been given.

Energetic imprints? Vibrational healing? These concepts don’t fit into their paradigm because there’s no standardized way to measure them in a lab. It’s like asking a fish to climb a tree—they’re brilliant at what they do, but this isn’t their domain.

The problem is, this leaves those of us dealing with energetic aftermath in a frustrating limbo. Our symptoms are real, our suffering is valid, but the tools available in conventional medicine can’t see what’s actually causing our continued distress.

The Breakthrough Moment

When I finally addressed the energetic parasite using Body Code techniques, everything began to shift. The process was so elegant, so logical in its own way, that it felt like puzzle pieces finally clicking into place.

And something magical happened.

My food reactions started stabilizing. The colitis flares became less frequent and less severe. I felt this incredible lightness, like I’d been carrying an invisible backpack full of rocks and someone had finally helped me take it off.

The vicious cycle—physical parasite to toxins to energetic imprint to food allergies to inflammation—finally started to crack.

The Body Code worked so beautifully for me that I knew I had to dive deeper. I got certified as a Body Code practitioner because this work just makes so much sense, and now I get to help other people uncover their own hidden layers of healing. There’s nothing quite like the moment when someone realizes that their mysterious symptoms finally have an explanation—and more importantly, a solution.

The Marathon, Not the Sprint

Here’s the thing though, mama—this isn’t a quick fix situation. Healing at this level is like peeling an onion. Every layer you remove reveals another one underneath. I’m still working through pathogen energies bit by bit, session by session.

Each Body Code session reveals new imprints—maybe traces of past bacterial infections, lingering mold energies, or viral signatures that have been hiding in my system for years. It requires patience (which, let’s be honest, isn’t my strong suit) and faith in a process that can’t be tracked with traditional lab markers.

But with each layer I release, I feel more like myself. More energy, clearer thinking, better digestion. It’s a gradual unfolding rather than a dramatic cure, but the trajectory is unmistakably upward.

The Perspective Shift That Changes Everything

This journey has completely reshaped how I think about illness and healing. Pathogens aren’t just physical invaders—they’re energetic disruptors that can continue causing havoc long after they’ve been physically eliminated.

The Body Code gives me a way to detect and clear these invisible influences, layer by layer. Your body and immune system still might need help from your naturopath to eliminate physical pathogens through its normal channels, but the Body Code is a powerful complement for addressing the energetic aftermath that conventional medicine can’t see.

If This Resonates With You

Maybe you’re dealing with mystery symptoms that don’t respond to conventional treatment. Maybe your lab work looks perfect while you feel like garbage. Maybe you’ve been told “it’s all in your head” so many times you’re starting to doubt your own experience—and that dismissal cuts deeper than any physical symptom because it makes you question your own reality.

Sister, I see you. Your symptoms are real. Your suffering matters. You’re not crazy, you’re not imagining things, and you’re not being dramatic. Sometimes the answers we need exist in the spaces between what science currently understands and what our bodies are trying to tell us.

If conventional approaches have left you frustrated and still symptomatic, maybe it’s time to look beyond the physical. Your healing might be waiting in the energetic realm, unfolding one invisible layer at a time. Click here to book a session with me and let’s start to tackle it together.

The journey isn’t always linear, and it’s not always logical. But sometimes the most profound healing happens when we’re brave enough to explore the mystery of what makes us sick—and what makes us whole.

What about you, mama? Have you ever experienced healing that didn’t fit neatly into conventional boxes? I’d love to hear your story in the comments below.

    Lindsey my daughter has been going through this for years . Even to the point of not being able to work but the Drs say everything is normal. What are we looking at cost wise ? She has no money so I would have to help , and I’m not rich.

    I wish you lived closer so I could participate. I’m having lots of gut issues. Lots of testing to see why I get sick, can’t eat a lot. They think I have gastroperesis and was diagnosed with IBD (irritable bowel disease) now. If you have any suggestions I’d love to hear it. Thank you for all your knowledge
