Healing Mind, Body & Spirit: My GLP-1 Journey




Healing Mind, Body & Spirit – My GLP-1 Journey

Searching for Answers: Faith, Frustration, and Unworthiness

I looked for answers. I prayed, fasted, cried, and waited. Nothing changed — in fact, I gained weight. Raised in a Christian household, I believed patience and faith would bring transformation. But that waiting often led to frustration. I struggled with a deep sense of unworthiness, wondering if this was a trial I was meant to simply endure.

Finding Guidance and Exploring New Ideas

I pushed harder — more cardio, stricter routines — until I was near exhaustion. Then I prayed again, but this time, for guidance instead of results. That’s when I met a new doctor, a Black woman, and shared my story openly — all the frustration, all the effort, all the hope.

Around that same time, I began exploring African spirituality, the Ma’at principles of balance and truth, and even quantum theory. I was curious about how ancient healing wisdom and modern science might coexist — how prayer, mindset, and chemistry could all work together toward wholeness.

Skepticism and the Introduction to GLP-1

When my doctor first mentioned GLP-1 medication, I was skeptical. Injecting medicine? That wasn’t part of my plan. I thought, “I’m already doing everything right.” But if I was honest, my confidence was fragile. She shared stories of success — and something in me decided to listen.

Connecting the Dots: Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Science

The deeper I studied, the more it all connected — my ancestors’ use of plant medicine, the science of GLP-1, and the timeless call to align mind, body, and spirit. It no longer felt like “just medicine.” It felt like continuation — modern science carrying forward an ancient legacy of healing.

Determination and Hope

I showed up to a family event still feeling uncomfortable in my body. But something had shifted. I carried hope instead of shame. I wasn’t chasing perfection anymore — I was honoring the process of becoming.

Healing Beyond the Physical

GLP-1 didn’t just change my body — it freed my focus. It helped me see that healing is layered: physical, emotional, spiritual. When those three align, something powerful happens — peace returns, energy flows, and self-love feels natural again.

Maybe this resonates with you. You’re not alone. Healing is mind, body, and spirit — aligned and unstoppable.

Facing the Shadows and Reclaiming the Whole Self

                                               Facing the Shadows and Reclaiming the Whole Self with the help of GLP-1 After exploring Freud’s world of the unconscious , I was left asking — what do I do with everything I’d uncovered? Enter Dr. Carl Jung , the thinker who gave language to the deeper work — the part where we don’t just recognize the unconscious, we befriend it. Jung taught that the “shadow” holds the parts of ourselves we’ve exiled — our anger, shame, grief, but also our creativity, intuition, and power. It’s not just darkness; it’s potential waiting to be integrated. That truth shifted everything for me. When I began my GLP-1 journey , I thought I was simply addressing physical health. But as my body found balance, I realized how much emotional weight I’d been carrying. The mirror became a truth-teller. Each pound released carried memories, emotions...

Unconscious and Rewriting Old Narratives: The Battle to Lose & Gain on GLP-1

Image
  Uncovering the Unconscious and Rewriting Old Narratives: The Battle to Lose & Gain on GLP-1 When I finished reflecting on Frantz Fanon ’s work, I realized that reclaiming my power meant I also had to understand what was powering me. That’s when Dr. Sigmund Freud ’s insights on the unconscious stepped forward — not as a clinical framework, but as a mirror. Freud taught that much of what drives us lies beneath awareness: buried emotions, unprocessed experiences, and the internalized scripts we carry from childhood. At first, I resisted this idea. I wanted to believe I was fully in control. But my body knew otherwise. My anxiety, cravings, and exhaustion weren’t random; they were messages — the language of my subconscious asking to be heard. Through my GLP-1 journey, I began to feel this in real time. As my body recalibrated, it made space for deeper awareness. When the appetite quieted, the inner dialogue grew louder — and I started hearing the why behind my patterns...
