Carly Taylor’s Lyme Hack:

“Hey, my name is Carly Taylor and I’m so excited to give you a tip this year for the hackathon. Over the years, I have given several different tips from what you’re putting in your body, to using different modalities for healing. But this year, I really want to send the message out there to stay patient with yourself and give yourself grace through healing. It can be a very confusing and defeating process. But one thing that I send reminders to a lot of people I give advice to going through Lyme and something that I gave myself that others gave me is to stay patient with yourself and give yourself grace. Keep pouring into yourself on those days that you may feel lower, you may feel defeated. Maybe you had a good day and then the next day you don’t feel so great. Healing is not linear. There are many ups and downs, but the more that you can have those little things that make you feel great and that you can lean on during those tough times, the better you will be. Maybe that’s a book you love, a bath, something that makes you happy, or someone to reach out to during those low times. Pour back into yourself, stay patient, and give yourself grace.”
