My Approach & Intention:

I want to approach my endometriosis with kindness, love and understanding. I am not angry or resentful towards it. It is a part of me and I respect the reality of it. I will nourish my body & create the optimal environment with the best holistic/nutritious/scientific resources possible to help it repair, rebuild and protect itself.

I named it Phil in an effort to humanize it, I believe through doing so I can positive influence it through my thoughts and energy.
