Spirituality can be a powerful tool for healing, but when it’s used to avoid pain rather than face it, it becomes a trap.

I’ve come to realise I don’t believe in lifestyle hacks anymore... and here’s why.

You’ve read the books, watched the videos, and followed all the steps... but why does nothing ever seem to change? Maybe it’s time to stop looking for answers, and start living them.

I don’t want to bypass reality in pursuit of some illusion of enlightenment. Because real wisdom isn’t about rising above life—it’s about fully living it.

We’ve tried many remedies to help our gut health, but nothing has worked as well as removing foods that our bodies can’t tolerate. Because restrictive diets can be isolating, I remain hopeful that one day we’ll find solutions to eat freely again.

After a year of following Irene Lyon’s work and course, I found myself still searching for the practical answers I need to heal. If you’re curious about what went wrong and what I’m still trying to figure out, keep reading.

I don’t even notice it until I’ve slipped back in—that familiar rush of doing, checking, moving. But what if slowing down isn’t just about being more present, but about learning how to be?

My curiosity led me to explore dopamine, that elusive neurotransmitter, and I found myself questioning: Are dopamine issues the result of trauma, toxins, genes, lifestyle or a mix of all these?

I’ve felt shame for growing up in poverty and neglect. Shame for struggling to function in a world that expects constant productivity. Shame for questioning societal norms and making unconventional choices.

What I struggle with the most now are people who, despite being good people at their core, simply aren’t available for genuine relationships.

Most of us go through life unaware of the hidden forces shaping our choices, relationships, and sense of self. We believe we know who we are—until life triggers us, exposing patterns we didn’t even realise we were caught in. True self-discovery isn’t about fixing what’s ‘wrong’ with us; it’s about seeing ourselves clearly, beyond the masks we’ve been taught to wear.
