The Idiosyncratic Needle

A New Approach To Autoimmune and Chronic Illness Treatment

This is pulled from a video in The Idiosyncratic Program vault. What’s the vault? This is a page on my site, that’s complimentary, where you can look through videos describing my approach to autoimmune and chronic illness treatment. It’s a way to test drive, resonate, get curious, and ask questions before paying into the full module-based + support group chat model. A guest period. Modern medicine has its strengths. Traditional Chinese Medicine does too. The difference is that TCM tends to be lower amplitude in comparison. Let’s start low amplitude, then see how much support we need from high amplitude tools. We can start by strategically removing, getting to the studs, then working our way up through a framework that prioritizes different systems and organs in the body at an appropriate time. This gets the most benefit out of each practice, tool, supplement, etc., instead of relentlessly adding and waiting for something to get its footing. What is this approach? * Modules of videos that are continuously pruned, watered, weeded throughout time. This is not evergreen. You shape what you see. * The videos are broken down into stages. Each stage has specific signs/symptoms that guide if you should be using those tools/practices or not. * Some videos may have companion sheets that ask questions or prompt you to go further. * The videos are educational + provide actionable steps or practices. * We use assistance from herbs in each stage. These are sent directly to you. * A group chat with members who are going through the exact same program. * This community is crucial to healing. I’m very ‘go at it alone’ myself, but I’ve found a massive amount of motivation, creativity, and inspiration when in community with others. It has an impact if the community is cultivated correctly. This isn’t a place of selling, complaining, or cattiness. It’s filled with marvelously talented, bright, passionate individuals who have their own wisdom to share. This creates an environment where you have no choice but to walk away with knowledge. It seems more confusing than it is. You can find a clear and concise video explaining the process here [https://www.theidiosyncraticneedle.com/online-program]. I want to share my knowledge and experience in a way that forces me to continue learning. In this model, I have no choice but to grow and evolve with you. That’s my goal. You have full autonomy, I’m there as a guide. Thanks for reading The Idiosyncratic Needle! Share this with the person who you know could use clarity and change in their healing process.
