017. How to Use Aloe Vera Plant for TSW with Sandra Malko

Sandra joins us from Ireland and discuss everything from how to use Aloe Vera Plant gel for itch and burn relief, as well as sleep, stress and more!

Her Biggest Tip: try not to stress!! & Remember... time heals - don't give up

--------

2:55 - stopped taking steroids June/July 2021. Things were fine until November. After November thats when the real issues started. Flares started getting bad, itching, bleeding, hot and cold sweats, oozing, smell, nightly sweating (had to change clothes multiple times a night).

4:00 - Since then, have healed a lot. She is able to function but whenever around dust or perfume or animals, still flares up.

6:30 - A woman in the airport told her to try aloe vera. She started using 100% natural gels but thought that didn’t do much. In Jan/Feb 2022 her mom gave her aloe vera plant, and since then she's been taking the gel from the leaf on her face, arms, skin, and it helped the itchiness and burning a lot! Since February 2022 her redness went down, has no more scars and skin isn’t as tough.

8:10 - started using tea tree shower gel with mint, fragrance free, natural, showering with it gives skin relief

13:45 - The difference between eczema and steroid withdrawal? -- the doctors couldn’t tell her. By her definition... Eczema has different patches on the skin, while steroid withdrawal is red sleeves. Eczema is itchy but not as bone deep, not nearly a intense. Steroid withdrawal you get oozing and burning and smell and shedding skin.

28:40 - Water based makeup - they don't stick to your skin or dry out, they stay oily.

30:30 - Sandra couldn’t imagine going through this without moisturizing. She found that coconut oil dries into the skin but her moisturizer stayed moist. She uses emulsifying ointment.

34:00 - “what I want to do is change this into a lifestyle change to be healthier, rather than look for medication as a substitute”

40:13 - Recommendations for sleep?

• This all Natural Sleep Spray supplement containing Melatonin (which is a hormone produced naturally in the brain), GABA (a neurotransmitter that inhibits nerve activity in the brain, allowing it to slowly relax, and supports a normal sleep cycle), and Vitamins B2 & B6.
• High Quality CBD Oil. This one is patent protected, broad spectrum, organic compliant, non-GMO, THC-free, has liposomal technology for proven increased bioavailability, and, is grown and made in the USA from plant to package. (it also comes in a mocha flavor)

43:00 - Breath work!
