As many of you know, I have a strong belief in our body’s capacity to heal from even the most dire conditions, provided we’re given the right guidance, and are willing to make the required changes. I often talk about how important it is to find the right health care practitioner, who is able to guide you to health, and help you focus on expanding health, as opposed to focusing on fighting disease. The former feels uplifting, while the latter feels fearful and increases our stress levels – which actually impedes our healing. It’s very rare to find a practitioner who’s focus is on optimizing health and wellbeing without including an element of fear.
Back in early 2020, I had the good fortune of meeting such a person, who has now become one of my closest friends...
You see, I suffered a severe case of burnout as a result of taking on too much emotionally and physically over the previous years. My body started expressing all kinds of concerning symptoms. I went to see the usual conventional medical practitioners, but more often than not, I would feel even worse after the visit or test. With every visit, I would feel more hopeless, and although I knew I was burned out from the way I was doing life, I started to feel that I wasn’t cut out for the work I’m doing. Then through a series of synchronicities, in May of 2020, I met Erika and haven’t looked back since.
In Erika, I found someone who is not only a health care practitioner, but someone who epitomizes everything I know to be true about our health, and the way healing works, including the detrimental role that fear can play in our health if we allow it to get the better of us! Erika not only walked me back to optimum health, she was the catalyst for me to reach new levels of wellbeing that I didn’t even know were available to me, and as a result, I have continued to be able to go from strength to strength!
You see, she didn’t just work on my physical ailments (through the use of lab tests and supplements); she dug deep and helped me work through every layer of my being to find any hidden emotional, mental or spiritual causes that could possibly have prevented me from healing, or being the best version of myself, using a technique called “Neuro Emotional Technique” (NET).
A couple of days ago, Erika celebrated the grand opening of her new upgraded and expanded clinic with a wonderful gathering of all her clients! It was obvious how loved she is in our community, and of course I was one of the first people there to congratulate her. I think the world truly needs more practitioners like my friend Dr. Erika Barrantes!
Wherever you are in the world, I hope that you too find your own version of Dr. Erika Barrantes!
Much love,
Anita
