Today I would like to start with more thoughts on turning very glib, teal thoughts right side round from our last newsletter, Happy New Year, which dissected dismal teal symbolic thoughts. I think that the color teal, as it is found in real nature, is quite vibrant like the color found on teal ducks. Did you know that the teal color that is found in the wings of certain teal ducks can only be seen while they are flying high up in the sky? This is a fun fact that I did not know until the other day. I hope this inspires us to put any greyish teal thoughts right out of our heads. For an additional visual aid, please click here-

I’m pretty sure I may have told many of you about the time when a couple of my children brought fifth disease, which is caused by a virus, home from school and shared it with me. They got better, I got some Lupus like autoimmune mimicking symptoms and a positive Rheumatoid Factor test which resulted in a referral to a Rheumatologist, who did not definitively diagnose me with anything, or give me any answers as to what was wrong with me. Dr. Rheumatologist did give me some unhelpful prescriptions that did not cure me or bring me any kind of relief. My bone crushing fatigue and joint pains went on and on and on for about two years before I stumbled upon Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum on the interwebs as I began looking for answers to my own sick questions. His own story of recovery from a post viral fatigue syndrome gave me hope for my own wellbeing because I believed that I could get well because he got well.
Dr. Teitelbaum is one of the leading authorities in the world on post-viral CFS and fibromyalgia. Having contracted it himself while in medical school, Dr. T devoted his career to researching their causes and treatment. His landmark research published in the Journal of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome led to the development of the S.H.I.N.E.® treatment protocol, which has been highly effective in improving quality of life for energy-depleted individuals. This randomized placebo-controlled study showed an average 90% improvement in quality of life (p<.001 versus placebo).
Please visit his website to learn more about- Why This Matters for Long-Hauler Syndrome
and please visit his video to learn more about how 90% can get better, according to current research findings- Research Shows 90 Percent CAN Get Better.
If you would like to take a closer look at what Dr. T has to say and maybe even support his work, you can purchase his book, From Fatigued to Fantastic! NEW 4th Edition.
If you would like to learn more about implementing Dr. T’s SHINE protocol, you can learn more about that here,
How Do I Get Well? The S.H.I.N.E.® Protocol | Vitality 101.
Dr. T is an amazing man who is a joyful breath of fresh air and who has experienced recovery and is sharing his story and protocol with others so that they can have the same twinkle in their eye that he has twinkling in his eye. Maybe you can even start your journey to whole well-being by wishing upon a twinkling star found way up in the dark night sky which is actually full of light because the sky has not actually fallen as far as some may think that it has, per my last moon and star filled glance up at it.
I hope you find this helpful.

Happy New Year - by Stephanie Schaible (substack.com)
Heavenly Father,
Please help everyone who has gathered here find everything needed to heal their entire being- mind, body, spirit - soul. Please provide us with the grace that we need to bear our trials well.
Please forgive all of our sins. You have created everything in your power, and you have given us the breath of life. In every breath that we take, in every morning that we wake, and in every moment of every hour, we live under your healing care. Please touch us with your merciful, kind, loving, healing, power. Recreate us in your image. Heal our sick soul by your healing power. Cast out anything that should not be in us and replace it with everything good that should be within us. Bind up what is broken within us. Remove and replace any inflamed, damaged, cancerous, or unproductive cells, bones, and tissues from our body and cleanse us from all illness. May the warmth of your healing power pass into our body and make the sick areas of our soul new so that our entire being will heal and be used to bring glory to your wonderful name, that we might be used for your Kingdom to bring you honor and glory.
In Jesus name, Amen.
