    Evolving Sara

    Who the FUCK am I?!?!? What the FUCK is the point of my life?!?!? I feel like I have been thrown into an existential crisis. Since losing the ability to walk, and the ability to do many of the things I enjoy due to Multiple Sclerosis, I often question who I am and what my…

    Body, Spirit & Mind

    Someone contacted me recently, asking me to talk to a friend of theirs who is newly diagnosed with MS about the healing lifestyle I have embraced. I’ll be honest, I panicked at the thought because I wasn’t sure how to put into words the methods I am using/have tried. Pretty ironic considering I’ve spent the…

  • Toxic Positivity

    PSA: If you are offended by foul language, you probably want to skip this post. I have always smiled – a lot. Sometimes I don’t even realize it and my face just naturally goes to that position. Some people suffer from RBF (Resting Bitch Face). I guess I was blessed with RNF (Resting Nice Face).…

  • Finding Source: A Personal Encounter with Unconditional Love

    What Does It Mean to Be Connected to God? Throughout this blog, I often talk about God, Source, the Universe, and getting “connected.” But what does that actually mean—or feel like? The purpose of my journey, I believe, is to discover these truths for myself. And what a journey it has been. I am a…

  • The Healing Power of Acceptance

    Learning to Let Go: My Journey Toward Acceptance For the past 17 years, I’ve felt like I’ve been perpetually mourning because of Multiple Sclerosis. I’ve cycled through all the stages of grief at different points in my journey—except for the last one: acceptance. Each time a new symptom has appeared or I’ve lost another function,…

  • From Guilt to Gratitude: Raising My Vibration for Healing

    A vibration is a state of being—an atmosphere or energetic quality that exists in a person, place, thought, or thing. Emotions resonate with the vibrational frequency they generate. In order to fully heal through meditation, I’ve learned that I need to “vibrate at a higher frequency.” That means staying in a positive emotional state, because…

  • The Healing is Happening: Trusting the Process When Progress Feels Slow

    I’ve really been struggling with what to write over the last few weeks because, honestly, I haven’t been feeling as great physically as I’d hoped. More than that, I haven’t felt the strong connection to my source like I did during those first few months after my epiphany. Back then, I truly believed I’d be…

  • Letting Go to Let God: A Journey Beyond Religion to Source and Self

    The phrase “let it go” has come up a lot throughout this wild, transformative journey. That simple statement can mean so many different things to different people. For me—like Elsa in Frozen—I’ve reached a point where I can’t hold it back anymore. If I want to truly heal, I have to let some things go.…

  • Finding My Own Miracle: A Journey Through MS Treatment

    A Rough Start: My First Neurologist Experience The neurologist who first diagnosed me with MS had a terrible bedside manner and did not instill confidence in my ability to fight the disease head-on. That was one of the many reasons I avoided seeing a neurologist for seven years after my diagnosis. When my symptoms became…

  • The Road to Healing: Facing MS on My Terms

    Denial and the First Signs of Change After my official diagnosis, I went through a year of hard-core denial. I didn’t want to talk or hear about Multiple Sclerosis. That was easy enough when nothing was changing physically. But then, I noticed a slight foot drop in my right foot. At first, it wasn’t noticeable…
