Healing in the Spirit

1. Are there clinical studies supporting these herbs?
Yes. Every herb used in the Healing in the Spirit formulas has been scientifically studied for its immune, anticancer, or healing effects. Many — such as Astragalus (Huang Qi), Scutellaria barbata (Ban Zhi Lian), Hedyotis diffusa (Bai Hua She She Cao), Reishi (Ling Zhi), and Curcumin (Turmeric) — have been shown in peer-reviewed studies to:
-
Inhibit tumor growth and angiogenesis
-
Support apoptosis (the self-destruction of abnormal cells)
-
Reduce inflammatory cytokines like IL-6, TNF-α, and NF-κB
-
Strengthen immune resilience during conventional therapy
We maintain a research database and doctor handouts with citations from MD Anderson, NIH, and PubMed for each herb.
2. Are the formulas safe to take during chemotherapy or radiation?
Absolutely. Every Healing in the Spirit formula is reviewed through both a clinical and energetic safety lens.
-
They are designed to support, not interfere with, standard oncology care.
-
Herbs are chosen for their compatibility, gentle action, and synergy with the body’s healing response.
-
We avoid overly stimulating or high-detox herbs during active infusion phases.
Many oncologists are now recommending these same herbs worldwide for their ability to
protect organs, reduce side effects, and improve recovery outcomes.
3. How long should someone take the formulas?
Healing happens in phases:
-
Phase 1: Terrain Reset (Weeks 1–8) – clears inflammation, balances digestion, rebuilds vitality.
-
Phase 2: Restoration (Months 2–6) – supports immune defense, detox pathways, and emotional repair.
-
Phase 3: Maintenance (Long-term) – a gentler tonic blend for cellular renewal and prevention.
Consistency is key. We guide patients to stay with the formulas through full cellular and energetic restoration — typically 3 to 6 months minimum.
4. Can more than one formula be taken at the same time?
Yes — the formulas were created to work in synergy.
-
The Master Formula (ER+/PR+, TNBC, or HER2+) forms the core foundation.
-
Adjunct Formulas such as Natural Tamoxifen Substitute, Malassezia + Mycotoxin Detox, or Terrain Reset support specific biological processes (e.g., hormone modulation, immune recalibration, fungal clearance).
-
Emotional & Spiritual Support Formulas help restore the inner landscape of peace and resilience.
Each formula complements the others, just as organs, emotions, and spirit work together in healing.
5. How quickly will someone feel results?
Many patients report increased energy, reduced anxiety, and improved digestion within the first few weeks.
Deeper healing — tumor reduction, restored immune markers, hormonal balance — unfolds gradually.
Our focus is not suppression of disease, but awakening the body’s own healing intelligence.
6. Can these formulas be taken with pharmaceutical medications or supplements?
In most cases, yes. Our formulas are crafted with cross-disciplinary awareness and are:
-
Free of blood-thinning or hepatotoxic herbs.
-
Balanced to avoid drug-herb conflicts.
-
Safe alongside endocrine therapy, immunotherapy, and biologics when properly guided.
Patients are always encouraged to share their full medication list with their practitioner so dosing can be timed and customized appropriately.
7. Are these herbs used in hospitals or clinical settings?
Yes. Many of the same herbs used in Healing in the Spirit are prescribed in oncology departments in China, Japan, and at U.S. integrative centers such as MD Anderson and Memorial Sloan Kettering.
They have been used safely in thousands of clinical settings to complement chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery, helping reduce recurrence and improve overall quality of life.
8. What makes Healing in the Spirit formulas different from other herbal blends?
Our approach bridges Traditional Chinese Medicine, Western botanical science, and spiritual healing.
Each formula is built upon:
-
Evidence-based research confirming anticancer and immune-enhancing effects.
-
TCM pattern diagnosis to balance Qi, blood, and the emotional terrain.
-
Energetic resonance — every blend carries the vibration of renewal, hope, and spiritual alignment.
Healing in the Spirit isn’t about fighting disease; it’s about restoring harmony between body, mind, and soul.
