Why MIT and Harvard Medical School said, “I DO!”
I’d like to think that my good looks and charm got me in! But…when it comes to such prestigious institutions such as MIT and Harvard, there’s a few other qualities that help:
– Intelligence
– Creativity
– Perseverance
– Drive
– Gumption
And not to mention…a KICK ASS business proposal!
During the rigorous interview process, to which at one point I had a WHOLE TWO MINUTES to answer each question on video without any…
Opportunity to see the question!
or
The option to re-record!
(My palms were literally sweating!)
I somehow managed to articulate the business I want to create…
A HOLISTIC PROTOCOL TO ALLEVIATE THE PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS OF CHRONIC ILLNESS!
Sounds CRAZY right?
Yes!
Undoable?
Absolutely NOT!
How?
Well read on and you’ll find out…
First, I need to give you a basic understanding of what chronic illness is!
People, just like YOU and ME, around the world are suffering every single day from chronic illnesses such as:
– Depression (300 million people)
– Anxiety (40 million people in the U.S. alone)
– PCOS – Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (1 in 10 women)
– Thyroid Disorders such as hyper- or hypo-thyroid and Hashimoto’s (200 million people)
While some people with these diagnosis’ live normal lives, MILLIONS struggle daily to get by with simple tasks because it symptoms get in the way AND they get progressively worse as time goes on!
Just imagine that YOU are NOT able to….
– Get out of bed in the morning because you are so drained and weak (physically and/or emotionally).
– Enjoy social activities such as a walk in the park with friends or a picnic with family.
– Be in the sun for too long because your body can’t handle the heat.
– Enjoy eating gluten, dairy, or sugar…ever! Or you will get super sick for up to 14 days!
– Walk even a short distance without your feet cramping and feeling like they are on fire!
– Stand too long without getting dizzy or passing out.
– Move because every nerve ending in your body feels like they’re being poked with hot pins.
– Lose weight because your metabolism works against you and exercise doesn’t help.
– Brush your hair in fear that a gigantic clump will fall out.
– Have children of your own. Share the creation of life with your spouse. Give your parents grandchildren.
Can YOU believe people experience all these symptoms and more?!?
People actually live like this EVERY day!
MIND BLOWING!
You are probably wondering with all the latest technology and innovations with modern medicine and pharmacology, why are people still suffering every single day?
Good Question!
It’s not only that these conditions do not have a cure, but the emotional impact of these symptoms are being overlooked in Western Medicine today! The mind-body connection is not being treated!
Let me bring you through the emotions of the diagnosis and treatment process in Western Medicine today…
When you are diagnosed, the first thing you do is research. You try to get your hands on every piece of information about your illness to understand what is wrong with you and what your options are. You search the world wide web to gather all this information, including a glorified list of “possible” symptoms.
Right now, you are only suffering from 2 or 3 symptoms; but after reading the list of 12 possible symptoms, your subconscious mind kicks in and stores these possibilities. Over the next year or so, you develop more and more of these symptoms from that list!
So the question is…
Are you really getting worse?
Is it your subconscious playing against you?
Is it a combination of both?
On top of the physical symptoms you are suffering from with your chronic illness, there is a heaping mess of emotional symptoms that I like to call Bonus Symptoms!
Frustration/Anger
– Doctors who don’t listen or brush off your symptoms
– Misdiagnosis
– Prolonged diagnosis process
– Side effects from medications that make you sicker or cause another illness
Guilt
– Did I do this to myself?
– Could I have done something differently?
– Could I have prevented this illness?
Disappointment
– Treatments not working
– Not making any progress when following directions
– Missing out on special events with friends and family
Shame
– That you can’t do everything “healthy people” can do
– People don’t believe you’re sick because you don’t “look” sick
– People thinking you’re faking your illness
– Having to cancel plans because you don’t have any energy left
All of these emotions build up in your body, latching on to organs, eroding your insides like battery acid!
These trapped emotions are damaging your body; making your symptoms worse and even causing additional illnesses!
What if I told you there was a way to alleviate your symptoms by identifying and releasing the trapped emotions that are causing them?
The frustration.
The pain.
The shame.
What if it was as easy as tapping on specific points on your body?
So how do we release these emotions?
In 2012, I met a Ukrainian energy healer by chance while shopping for beautiful crystals to add to my mineral collection. We started talking and she mentioned that she uses a self-acupressure technique to release trapped emotions. She continued to explain how different pressure points on your body are correlated to specific organs in your body; something I was familiar with having dabbled in Eastern Medicine studies, but that we also tend to hold onto our emotions in specific areas of our bodies and by tapping on these points, while saying certain phrases or mantras, you can release the emotions, permanently. And after just one session with her, I was hooked. I was calmer and more collected. I still had the memories, but I had released the negative emotions.
“Even though, I feel frustration in my chest, I love and accept myself, just as I am.”
This method is called EFT or Emotional Freedom Technique. The clinical research meets the Division 12 Standards set by the American Psychological Association (APA) as a treatment modality and is quickly taking over methods such as EMDR to treat PTSD, anxiety, over eating, and more in a clinical setting.
See research here.
EFT peels back your emotions and memories, like layers of an onion, getting to the subconscious reasoning behind your actions, responses, and triggers. It reaches that one core memory, usually from childhood, that causes a chain effect of repeating behaviors. Until we identify, acknowledge, and release this core memory and the attached emotion, we can never truly heal ourselves.
About the Founder
I am Chelsea Sposit, CT, a licensed medical professional since 2008, with a passion for helping those suffering from chronic illness look and feel their best. Previously, I specialized in medical grade skincare and permanent hair removal for patients with endocrine disorders, skin grafts, and other medical conditions, as well as cosmetic concerns.
To view my full resume please visit my LinkedIn profile.
I owned and operated a successful medical spa in Beachwood, Ohio since 2014. I only recently closed my practice due to an injury last October to my right eye that impacted my vision and I can no longer perform these intricate procedures. This has been a heartbreaking experience for me as I loved what I did, had amazing patients, and put a lot of time, money and energy into my practice. I am truly grateful for both of my parents for supporting me emotionally and financially since my injury 8 months ago.
New Beginnings
I am incredibly excited to embark on my new journey as one of ONLY 70 students accepted to the inaugural class for Healthcare Innovation at MIT and Harvard Medical School! My vision of helping others live their best lives possible is about to become a reality! Patient care as we know it is about to be disrupted! Healthcare is about to be disrupted!
