when it comes to not getting sick takes a lot of preparation and easy action. We are currently going through the transition period in seasons. If you are not doing aware of how the body is going through changes there is a good chance you will get sick. It is October and we are in a transitional period where you must begin to change your mind and body. Staying true to the place you are in, and following the seasonal trends of food and temperature is the solution and you will make it through the transition with ease.
Understanding that the body has just gone through a drying spell from summer, you must begin to take down that excess heat that is in the body naturally. You can do so eating foods that harvested now, like apples, root vegetables, and cooling alkaline based foods.
What naturally happens in the body when it stays too hot going int the summer it begins to produce reactive mucus to protect itself from pathogens, which creates the hard to beat sicknesses of the winter.
BY following the suggestions here you will begin to get your body and mind back to balance.
What’s up everybody Patrick Lerouge from Evolve Restorative Therapy. I am your pain consultant. My job is to get you to understand that healing is natural once you focus on the basic routines that get you healthy. Today, I wanted to talk about the signs that your body needs help.
I want to use an opportunity that is happening in my house and teach you based on it. I have three kids, and sicknesses happen, My two-year-old daughter, Devin, has a pacifier that probably dropped on the floor. She put it in the mouth and caught a virus. That only give signs affects the mouth. After three days of care and watching, we went to the doctor to make sure it was not something worse. I tell everyone after three days of you doing something holistically, find out some more data. We found out that it was just the virus.
THE VIRUS
runs its course in about four days to five days, and it just swells the mouth and the tonsils and the vesicles inside the mouth. So Devin’s teeth were hurting. Her mouth is red and angry. So that happened a few days ago, now Layla is started to get ill, which then I knew what was going to happen to her. Angry mouth and gums for four days and everything is going to pass. But during those four days, the body’s going to do natural remedies I want to show you how to notice the signs that your body needs help, or when it is becoming ill. This learning this skill comes in handy with kids, mainly cause they can’t really talk to you well.
What are the signs of the body (Disclaimer: So if you’re squeamish, maybe you should not be watching this.)
So with every child, there’s a vibrancy and energy in the face. When you first look at a child’s face, look for how vibrant it is, see how full the face is. Does the face projects energy out, Layla’s face is sinking in. This happens because her body is bringing energy inward and does not have enough to hold muscle tissue up well. So her eyes look falling back a little bit.
Notice the darkness around her eyes. Many people think that’s just signs of anemia. It’s not, it shows the vitality of the person, how strong the doing. So you can see the circles around the eyes, the, it’s not just about sleep, it shows how vital your body is. They say the eyes are the windows to the soul because it actually shows how healthy you are. The whiteness of the eyes shows a lot of your self as well.
The Tongue
Sticking your tongue out, notice how the textures and coating. Layla’s tongue has this white coating around it. That’s a sign of the body actively trying to get toxins out. That’s why tongue scraped is a big thing, see the spotting that’s happening on the tongue, it looks like it’s a leopard. That’s a sign that the body’s really bringing up its fire or heat to kill the intruder. Lalya has been having waves of fever on and off. Her tonsils in the back are all inflamed and angry looking. Plus, a big white patch on her tongue with more sores by her tonsils.
Those are signs that the body needs help. Whether it’s bacterial or viral, the body is working on something. These signs happen whether you’re going through actual sickness or you’re overworked. It’s going to show you things in the face and the eyes. How vibrant is your energy that pops out of your face as well as your tongue. Your tongue is a big sign.
Here is mine
See how it’s pink all the way through as well as there’s not many deep lines or creases. Creases also tell you about your body, like how hydrated you are. In short, you want it to be nice and flush pinkish red, but not red hot. That is showing me to much heat in the body.
These signs tell you what’s going on in the body, whether it’s viral or bacterial. Your body still has to go through the same process. Body temperature shifts to kill whatever is there, making the environment inside your body unhealthy.
That is the basics.
Now, what are some simple things you can do when you have these signs?
You got to rinse your mouth to kill all the bacteria in your mouth. No sugar. Rule of thumb: avoid eating anything white. It is an inflammatory. It gives your body inflammatory responses, things like cheese, milk, white bread. I don’t want to say carbs all together because when your body’s going through this elevated state, it needs energy.
Once you start recognizing these signs, it becomes simple to get ahead of illness, because all you’re going to do bump up your routine for when you get ill, which is another routine altogether.
If you are looking for a morning routine that will wake you up and get you energized for your day. Get the free Routine I giving away.
Patrick Lerouge and I want to share why it is so hard to know how to heal. I’m here to give you tips on how to Heal rapidly by getting back to the basics. Today I want to talk about something that I teach my clients, the love triangle. This love triangle is why you’re can’t get out of pain. It keeps you stuck in the cycle, by telling so many different things and ways to get out of pain. What’s worse is it’s happening and you probably don’t even realize that you are in the middle of it.
What is the love triangle
The love triangle is all about the three points of entry that go on inside your head that use to deal and fix your problem and pains. At the top of the triangle is our culture and the beliefs it gives us. In America, and what I’ve learned with a lot of my clients is they need things fast. It’s the instant gratification. We have trouble waiting for things. Things need to be as fast as possible. There is a demand for our activity to be hard works intense so we feel like we don’t have to do as much. Plus we need convenience, which is number two.
So not only do we want things fast and we want things to be hard and heavy, but we also want to be convenient. That is our cultural thing. Everything is becoming so simple for us but our human body that needs stress to adapt and grow. Which the body doesn’t get as much and is beginning to show signs of dis-ease. So the taking advantage of the fact that we like the convenience and we need things fast our culture is selling us more of this and we are eating it up.
What this looks like is
We sit for hours so we must work harder in the gym, the choices that we pick is a HIT workout and now everything will be okay. It’s hard, it’s fast and it’s the new fad or another one is getting to go to Ketosis. Ketosis is a natural process that your body naturally goes through. Now if you add these beliefs in it looks like: just get to ketosis and stay there, or the big one nowadays is intermediate fasting.
I’ve, I’m seeing some people go through 12 hours without eating and yet that is scientifically proven but it is not sustainable. Your body and your mind need food and it needs food throughout the day. The meals just need to be structured. Our culture is, Go bigger, go hard, and they stretch it out and they get results, but how long will that result last. That’s what’s gonna get you.
The medical world
The medical world is all about stabilizing and keeping you within the proper numbers. If you go to the Emergency room, all they are required to do is is stabilizing you. It is needed and at the time but that is it stabilizing you so you do not die. So they find things and they patch the holes, which is Uber necessary. I tell all my, I tell everybody that I’m holistic.
I do think holistic I use herbs, I use all these different natural things, but if I get into an accident, I’m going to say, bring me to the Er. Let’s stabilize this, let’s get this out. It works and it works amazingly, and I’m not saying it’s bad. What I am saying is they look at you as parts.
They look at your shoulder and see the shoulder joint is grinding, so let’s replace it. Or you have tendonitis in this shoulder, you just have to do a Bicep work and shoulder re re-education. Where they put you through different shoulder activities and they don’t look at the whole kinetic chain.
This way of thinking happens so often and so the norm that we get a worse mentality in our head. The Mentality of I am broken and needs to be fixed. If you look at any commercial about any pain. it’s going to imply and give you the thought that you are broken and needs to be fixed it. That is not the truth, right But that is our medical world.
The Love Triangle Continues. Our Science
Science cured polio. They could also are different things by going down into the microscopic world and finding the one thing that works, and then say if we can change this one atom we can change the whole part and that would science is good for and it’s awesome. Don’t get me wrong, all three of them are necessary for all three of them are needed.
It’s just the love Triangle does not look at you as a whole and you don’t put yourself first in making decisions regarding the three. We allow them to pull us in many different directions and make us feel we do not know what is good for us. So that is going to be the biggest thing that I want you to really focus on. The love triangle is pulling you in three different directions and you are not putting yourself first and looking at who you are and using your culture, your medical society, your science for your advantage. You have to see who you are and that what works for you.
This is what I want you to do next time you have pain. Start Looking at what the love triangle. Don’t allow it to pull you in. Ask what does your culture say about doing about pain? Does say just use meds? Doesn’t say use only holistic remedies. In your cultural world, what is being said? which will change in different pockets of people and different classes of people. Then, what is your medical society say? Are you all about just replacing your problem or looking to nurture yourself back in a sustainable way. And the last one is science. How is science dictating the medical world that tells you what the fad secret weapons will be?
That’s what I want you to think about with this tip?

This is one of my very first lessons to get people to stop just doing things. Tell me what you think? Write it down below and holla out me. And biggest thing is if you do not know, I have a Facebook group that I answered questions is if you have any questions, please go to my Facebook group, which is live pain-free and I will answer your questions there.
What’s up everybody, Patrick Lerouge here from Evolve Restorative Therapy. You can find me at www.livepainfreeprocess.com. I’m the creator of the live pain-free process and I’m determined to get you to bring healing back to the basis. what we’re gonna be talking about today is my 1% Rule.
I Have been realizing that healing is thought about in a complicated way now and you are working much harder, all because of our love triangle you are in and don’t even know you are in. If you don’t know what the love triangle is, I’ll be doing a video about it soon.
What my 1% rule
My 1% rule gets my students to realize that everything that they do in their healthy life gives them a 1% bump in benefits. You have to realize that there’s a consistent drain on your body that withdraws more from the body.
Everything is taxation on the nervous system. So that 1% bump compared to everything else in the world, especially if you’re in the organic world or staying in the natural world won’t amount to anything unless you are consistent. Which then that 1% bump will turn into something good because of the compounding effect. After seven to 14 days of consistent work, you start to compound that and stacking the benefits of what you are doing. In fact, the one percent will turn into2%, 2% will turn into 4%, four to eight, eight to 16, et Cetera, et cetera. The one percent becomes very powerful over time.
So, the 1% rule is all about how often you doing one thing and stacking that one thing over time. The simpler easy things that you do in that 1%, now you’re on the track to rapid healing. You no longer think of only doing one thing expecting great results, you thing one to two%, stacking happens then two, four, to eight%. You will be starting to stack things in such a way where now you’re actually coming up with a bigger percentage and much bigger results.
What I want you to think about
All the things that you’re doing throughout your day that’s healthy
2. Are you doing consistently over a seven to 14-day spread.
That is the stuff that you’re going to be compounding, and that is the basics. The thing that you’re doing more often is going to create a habit around. For instance, a very good one that I hear a lot is, I the concept of cinnamon. They’re adding cinnamon. This is good to balance blood sugar levels. So I see people adding cinnamon to an item once a while thinking “Oh, I’m going to have to take down my sugar intake so let me add some cinnamon to my oatmeal that I have today, but they don’t do it all the time. Because of all the extra sugar that you’re having throughout their day, one act of cinnamon will not make a dent in your levels or the way you feel.
Let’s get clear here: if you do any action just once, you’ll feel good for a couple of hours, you might feel balance, you might even feel great, but then you go back into your habit. The habit of not having cinnamon to balance out the negative effects of sugar. If you make adding cinnamon to your everyday
Action step
Take track and look at all the things that you’re doing in a healthy way. See what you’re doing over a seven-day spread and that is your 1%. Think about the amount of the things that you’re going and doing consistently. Does that outweigh the things that you degrade your body? Possibly not because you are in pain currently but with time and adding in more 1% things throughout your day.
1% things are relatively easy as a walk, going asleep on a good time, eating in appropriate times. All those things are 1% of tools that are common knowledge. what you eat, how you eat it. Your meditation, your hobbies, how much you work out and how much rest you do. All these things I will be doing video tips on soon. I am going to be talking about them and getting you back into a basic way of thinking about your health.
Think about what you are doing consistently as a 1% gain. The biggest problem that I see that people do is they think one supplement is going to fix their issue. A surgery is going to fix them. A new fade extreme exercise routine is going to straighten them out. It never works because the action that you do is based around “I am broken” mentality and I need to be fixed. Your body is always adapting, always changing based upon the habit loop you have created. YOU ARE NOT BROKEN
If you like this, share it to somebody else that needs to know about the 1% rule because so many people are depending on one thing to fix it and it’s never that. Alright, so I will see you on the flip side. later.
Now when it comes down to Thanksgiving and being thankful, I would like to say I am thankful for all of my clients that trust me with to walk with them through their journey to a better version of themselves. Their journeys and stories like this need to be heard and cherished. They give others the power to change their lives and realize it’s much easier than they would ever imagine. So, I say thank you to everyone that is allowing me to help them with their journey.
Sara cooked Thanksgiving turkey, and it is a big deal. A REALLY big deal!
She wrote me this email only two weeks into the master class. I’m so proud of her and I wanted to share her story because it’s such a powerful one that can easily be swept underneath the rug as small.
“Two weeks into taking the class (and a year plus of working with Patrick regularly), I cooked my first turkey!”
For many people, this might not seem like a big deal – but for me it was. My husband and I have hosted Thanksgiving for over a decade. Over the years, our attendee list has grown from 10 people to up to 24 some years. We always make all the staples: stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, and the “important” pies. But never the turkey. Cooking the turkey was just something I felt sure I could NOT do. And years of avoiding it only strengthened that belief.
Two years ago, the catered bird was salty and undercooked. I swore that the next year, I would make the turkey. Last year, I geared up to do it! But in the end, I let sick kids and work demands be my excuse at the ninth hour to not follow through.
This year, a good friend offered to help me cook the turkey. A few weeks ago though, I started to panic and talk myself out of doing it .. again. When I told my friend I couldn’t do it, she urged me to still do a small “trial” turkey our Friendsgiving.
“If it is really stressful or it doesn’t come out great or you just don’t want o do it again, then you can cater the real one.”
I had one moment where I heard myself trying to talk myself out of doing the test turkey – but I ignored myself. I was a little surprised to hear myself actually order the turkey.
And then, I just did it. With my friend’s step-by-step instruction: I did it! I cooked a turkey!!!! And I even deviated a bit from her recipe/directions.
I am not super shocked that it came out pretty good. (I am a decent cook.) But I was surprised that not only did I actually DO it — climb my Everest and face my fears — but I didn’t obsess about it beforehand. I just put one foot in front of the other, and did the thing I was so sure … for so long .. I could not. AND IT WASN’T EVEN HARD! Because the hardest part is overcoming my own compelling argument for why I can’t accomplish something. But this time – with this thing I spent a decade telling myself I was incapable of doing – I didn’t talk myself out of it.
I picked up an even bigger turkey tonight – the real one – to feed 20 people vs. 8. I feel a little apprehension. But mostly I feel confident: obviously, I can cook a turkey. I have done it before – and it wasn’t that hard.
And I have Patrick and Dottie (and my good friend Jodi who helped me!) to thank for this victorious story:)”
She sent me this picture that moved and touched my heart last night. With the words we did it!!
I wish everyone would Be able to chase down their Everest and be proud of climbing it. To top it off once you do it you will notice it is easy. Look truth is, once you get a handle on the smaller things that are holding you back. like the beliefs. Life becomes blissful because you are not holding onto so much, this leaves more room to love and have fun.
Great work Sara and can not wait to hear the next big win for you.
I did a Facebook live video a couple of days ago that I think you should watch if you are beginning and confused about the process of healing.
Most people don’t even realize that there is a learning cycle.
Learning how to be easy on yourself while going through the learning curve is key. I explain how learning how to heal does not happen in the moment of pain.
It needs to happen throughout your life in places where you can learn how to be easy on yourself and see how you will get better with every challenge you give yourself.
Be Easy On Yourself
This statement is only one of the many points you need to learn to stay in a healing state. I teach clients to look at their entire lives as a challenge, a journey where events happen and all you have to do is adjust based on the last event.
In the video, you can see the project I have been working on for two years.
MY HOUSE!
My house has been one of my biggest accomplishments and I have been working on it since I moved in. Clients are always seeing the evolution – kind of like a butterfly.
I take this concept of ” be easy on yourself ” to heart here. You’ll get to see the first walI I ever built with pride and joy, I explain how it is not perfect. just to show you the next wall built months later, with marked improvement. It’s been a work in progress that I finished last week!
As you can see there is a world of difference between the walls. I have learned how to challenge myself and not take it so seriously. I saw my imperfects and worked on it. The next time I came up with another similar challenge I handled it better. That’s all you should ever ask of yourself…
“DO BETTER TOMORROW, THAN YOU DID TODAY.”
MAY I ASK A QUESTION?
When was the last time you challenge yourself outside your comfort zone?
How can this apply to you being gentle with yourself?
The next time you are in pain calm yourself by remembering you are not perfect and you don’t have to be perfect to get out of pain.
Next week we will be getting back to the mini-series on Healing made easy because you are clear on your starting point. If you have not looked at it please go back to it here:
That is the stuff that you’re going to be compounding, and that is the basics. The thing that you’re doing more often is going to create a habit around. For instance, a very good one that I hear a lot is, I the concept of cinnamon. They’re adding cinnamon. This is good to balance blood sugar levels.
