Feeling torn between conflicting medical advice is a common challenge when facing health decisions. It can leave us unsure about what’s best for our well-being and healing. My friend, Suzanna Hake, a former teacher turned entrepreneur and wellness educator, experienced this firsthand. Her family faced health challenges post-COVID, from her husband’s Lyme disease diagnosis to her battle with skin cancer. These trials led to a focus on creating wellness sanctuaries at home and trusting her intuition for health decisions.

“You take your health for granted until you don’t have it.”

My conversation with Suzanna revealed valuable lessons on prioritizing health and using intuitive guidance to discover a meaningful path in cancer treatment. Our intuition is so important and is a gift from God. We need to listen to it, go inward more, and recognize that we have significant power and influence over our health and well-being.

I’m excited to share with you what I’ve learned from Suzanna’s story.

The Power of Personal Stories for Healing

Listening to Intuition for health decisions

Suzanna and I shared personal experiences where our inner feelings guided us toward better health outcomes. For Suzanna, a defining moment came when she met with a surgeon who left her feeling uncomfortable and upset. Trusting her intuition, she sought alternative options and eventually found Hope4Cancer through a friend’s recommendation.

Actionable Tips:

• Trust Your Gut: If a medical professional or treatment doesn’t feel right, don’t hesitate to seek a second opinion or explore alternative options.
• Stay Informed: Educate yourself about different treatment modalities and approaches to health. Knowledge empowers you to make informed decisions.

“I just thought, I have to go. I have to go here because something is going on in my body that is producing this cancer, and even though it may not seem like this big, huge, scary thing, it was for me.”

Advocating for Yourself

Suzanna decided to go to Mexico for healing after a heartfelt conversation with a friend who had also faced a cancer diagnosis. Despite conflicting medical advice, she sought out alternative options, choosing those that felt right for her and following her intuition for health.

Actionable Tips:

• Be Proactive: Don’t be afraid to ask questions and seek out information about your health condition and treatment options.
• Build a Support Network: Surround yourself with supportive friends, family, and healthcare professionals who respect your choices and advocate for your well-being.

Holistic Approaches to Healing

Natural Healing Modalities

Suzanna’s journey to wellness included a range of natural healing modalities, such as IV therapies, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, hyperthermia, coffee enemas, and red light therapy. At first, Suzanna had doubts about coffee enemas. However, after experiencing their benefits, she has come to appreciate their health advantages.

Actionable Tips:

• Explore Holistic Treatments: Consider incorporating natural therapies into your wellness routine. Research and consult with holistic health practitioners to find treatments that align with your needs.
• Integrate Mind-Body Practices: Practices like meditation, yoga, and mindfulness can support your overall health and enhance the effectiveness of other treatments.

Hydration and Hydrogen Water

Hydrating adequately aids in detoxification, maintains optimal bodily functions, and supports the immune system. Suzanna discovered that adding hydrogen water to her routine provided additional benefits, increasing her body’s ability to fight oxidative stress and promote overall health.

Actionable Tips:

• Prioritize Hydration: Ensure you’re drinking enough water daily. Consider the quality of your water and explore options like hydrogen water for added health benefits.
• Use Hydrogen Water: Incorporate hydrogen water into various aspects of your daily routine, from cooking to skincare, to maximize its therapeutic potential.

Creating a Wellness Sanctuary at Home

Reducing Stress and Exposure to Toxins

Suzanna used to think wellness meant being super busy, playing lots of sports, and never getting sick. Now, she sees wellness as reducing stress, spending time with loved ones, getting enough sleep, and minimizing electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure. By reducing environmental toxins and stressors at home, she was able to create an environment that supports recovery and well-being.

Actionable Tips:

• Create a Relaxing Space: Designate areas in your home for relaxation and stress reduction. Use calming colors, essential oils, and comfortable furnishings to create a peaceful atmosphere.
• Minimize Toxins: Reduce exposure to EMFs by limiting the use of electronic devices, especially in the bedroom. Opt for non-toxic cleaning products and natural materials in your home.

Intentional Hydration and Water Quality

It’s important to protect your health by staying hydrated, especially during hectic travel schedules. Suzanna has some practical tips for traveling with medical-grade water.

Actionable Tips:

• Invest in Water Quality: Consider using a water ionizer or other filtration systems to improve the quality of your drinking water.
• Stay Hydrated on the Go: When traveling, plan to ensure you have access to high-quality water. Use portable water filtration systems or carry hydrogen water with you.

Mindset and Spirituality for healing

Mindset practices and spiritual beliefs also played a crucial role in Suzanna’s healing journey. Keeping a positive mindset and staying hopeful helped her handle challenges with courage.

Actionable Tips:

• Cultivate a Positive Mindset: Practice gratitude, positive affirmations, and visualization techniques to foster a positive outlook on life.
• Engage in Spiritual Practices: Explore spiritual practices that resonate with you, such as meditation, prayer, or spending time in nature, to support your mental and emotional health.

“There are several people I met in January that I’m still very close to. I’ve gone to visit them, we’ve had little reunions, and we still pray for each other and communicate pretty much daily. We are a great resource for each other.”

Building a Supportive Community

Support from friends, family, and a community of like-minded individuals meant a lot to Suzanna. They were there for her and helped her stay focused on her health journey.

Actionable Tips:

Bonus Tips for Healing and Wellness

Suzanna highly recommends Dr. Tony’s book “Ultra Cancer,” founder of Hope4Cancer, after experiencing his personalized advice and discussions on cancer treatment strategies during her visit. His advice on treating cancer differently and alternatives to mammograms changed how she thinks about staying healthy.

Conclusion

Suzanna’s journey teaches us that trusting your intuition and learning about natural health therapies can be life-changing. From alternative treatments to using hydrogen water and minimizing environmental toxins, she found a path that matched her family’s health goals and beliefs.

Keep in mind that your body knows best. Trust your gut, stay informed, and don’t be afraid to take a look at alternative health practices. Creating a supportive and toxin-free environment at home can make a significant difference in your well-being. Follow your inner voice and think about adding these natural ways to your daily routine.
