How to Take Charge of Your Asthma

How to Take Charge of Your Asthma

By Rev. Laurie Sue Brockway

Getting asthma for my 50th birthday was no picnic, but I find that the more information I have about a health condition the better able I am to navigate it. I like to dissect things and find out every possible angle. Once I know the medical aspects I can make decisions to complement medical care with holistic and spiritual support. In the course my journey I was reminded that I do have the power to turn my health issues around; maybe not completely, but at least I learned how to enhance my health and manage my condition so that it was no longer managing me! I encourage everyone to find his or her own path but want to share lifestyle and spirituality enhancers that helped. Looking at asthma holistically allowed me to raise it up from a threatening medical condition to an opportunity to grow.
