Autism Recovery Telesummit
• In my experience and that of others, there are many common factors observed in autism, Lyme, and even Alzheimer’s
• These may be toxicity, infections, and genetic or epigenetic influences
•What condition emerges has a lot to do with the age of the person at the time of the insults
• Reducing the body burden of toxicity and infection while simultaneously doing self-work (or family work) may help improve these health challenges
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• Tick bite in 1996; flu-like illness in 1997; never fully
recovered
• Burning sensations, numbness, tingling, crawling
sensations, difficulty walking, tremors, fatigue, air
hunger, memory loss, cognitive issues, joint and muscle
pain, fevers, rapid heart rate, twitching, anxiety,
depression, OCD, and many others
• Literally felt as though I could have died at any moment
• Did EAV testing which suggested Lyme in 2005; changed
my entire journey
• 45+ doctors and 8 years before I was diagnosed with
Lyme, Bartonella, Babesia, Ehrlichia
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• In 2005, very little known about Lyme as compared to 2016
• There wasn’t even a Google when I first got sick in 1997
• Did 3.5 years of antibiotics but progress was limited after
first 9-12 months
• There were no/limited Buhner, White, McCamish, Cowden,
etc. options
• I would have done fewer antibiotics, but I am open to every
possible reasonable tool
• Continued treating for years with herbs, supplements,
homeopathy, and energetic modalities
• In a very good place today, but continue my focus to maintain
and even further improve my state of health

Health-Promoting
•Clean water and air•Supplements•Organic food•Juicing / Smoothies•Quality sleep•Earthing / Grounding•Meditation•Biomat•Belief that you deserve to be well•Connection with family, community or “clan”•Joyful emotion•Finding purpose•Compliance
Health-Depleting
•Mold•EMFs•Negative emotions•Heavy metals•Chemicals•Pesticides•Microbes •Microbial biotoxins•Gluten and food stress•Poor food choices•Toxic water and air•Toxic relationships
The goal is to reduce the health depleting factors while increasing the health promoting until the balance shifts back to wellness
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• Chronic illnesses are generally multifactorial
• The common denominators are infections, toxicity, and
emotional factors; combined with genetic or epigenetic
influences
• Many things must be considered to regain wellness
• There are no magic bullets; and getting well is hard work
• Lifestyle changes are required (diet, stress, etc.)
• If you aren’t willing to change your diet or ensure that your
living and work environments are safe, progress will likely be
elusive
• Not everything is “Lyme”; in fact, “Lyme” may be very low on
the list
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• The body always strives to achieve equilibrium between stored unresolved emotional issues, toxins, and the presence of pathogenic microbes
• The level of infection in a body is directly correlated to the level of toxins
• Toxins may shift the balance of the immune system such that the body becomes a host for microbes
• Metals and chemicals open the door to infections
• Emotional conflicts lead to reduced blood flow in a given organ which leads to lowered immune surveillance and higher levels of microbes
• The best and most lasting outcomes come with addressing all of these factors simultaneously
• Where one may initially think of infections, toxins, and emotions as the priorities, my experience has been that emotions, toxins, and infections (in that order) may be more realistic
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• It is important to look at all of the factors involved and not hyperfocus on Lyme or any other single factor
• Some of my favorite frameworks for healing include:
• Dr. Klinghardt’s 7 Factors - Toxicity (including from infections), Nutritional Deficiencies, Structural Problems, Geopathic and Biophysical Stress (includes EMF), Interference Fields (scars, meridians, tonsils), Allergies (including foods), Psycho-Emotional Issues
• Dr. Klinghardt’s 5 Levels of Healing – the body is more than just a physical body and consists of the physical, energy, mental, intuitive, and spirit body
• Dr. Richard Horowitz MSIDS – Multiple Infectious Disease Syndrome – book “Why Can’t I Get Better?: Solving the Mystery of Lyme and Chronic Disease” – 16 nails in the foot framework
• Dr. Gordon’s FIGHT Program – Food/Focus, Infections, Genetics, Heavy Metals/Hormones, Toxins
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• Emotional Burden – past conflicts, traumas; not
deserving to be well, not feeling connection or “clan”
• Toxic Overload – heavy metals, pesticides, chemicals,
plastics, mold/mycotoxins, biotoxins, radiation, EMFs
• Microbial Infestations – parasites/protozoa, fungi/mold,
bacteria, viruses, mycoplasmas; treat largest to smallest
• Dietary Stress – gluten, dairy, sugar, GMO, poor food
choices (antibiotics, hormones, etc.)
• Dental Issues – amalgams, root canals, cavitations, bite
issues; one infected root canal can shutdown 63% of the
immune system (Jerry Tennant MD)
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• “Lyme” - Borrelia, Bartonella, Babesia, Ehrlichia/Anaplasma, Powassan virus, Coxiella (Q-Fever), Rickettsia/RMSF, Colorado Tick Fever, Tularemia, and more
• Parasites – worms (lungworm, roundworm/filaria, hookworm, tapeworm, threadworm, pinworm) and protozoa (Protomyxzoa (biofilm former), Toxoplasmosis, Giardia, Entamoeba, Blastocystis, etc.)
• Viruses – HSV-1, HSV-2, HHV-6, CMV, EBV, Borna, Parvo B19, Coxsackie, etc.; opportunistic
• Bacteria - H. Pylori, Klebsiella, Psuedomonas, E. Coli, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Clostridia, Chlamydia, Brucella, Leptospira, Salmonella, SIBO
• Mycoplasma – M. pneumoniae, M. fermentans, etc.
• Fungi - Candida, Aspergillus
• Mycotoxins from molds in water-damaged buildings; Stachybotrys, Aspergillus, Chaetomium, Wallemia, etc.
• Dental pathogens
• Often not the microbes themselves causing the symptoms but their biotoxins and response of the immune system
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• Mold – SurvivingMold.com is an excellent resource. When
people aren’t getting well, mold is a very common reason
• Parasites – Simon Yu’s Accidental Cure. May be a larger
issue than “Lyme” in many with chronic illness
• EMFs – signal molds to be more aggressive in their release
of biotoxins which cause many symptoms
• Dental – root canals, amalgams, cavitations
• Pesticides and Chemicals – it isn’t just about heavy metals
• Structure – structure may play a key role in healing;
alignment of the bite, atlas, spine, etc.
• Emotional Factors – energy follows thought; emotions
impact our immune systems and our ability to heal;
identifying too much with the illness
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• At the root of many chronic illnesses are emotions
• In Lyme disease, it often seems to be about deserving to be well, self-worth and value, and
connection to community or clan
• We must feel that we are worthy and deserve wellness or we create a place in our physical bodies
for unwanted microbes to colonize
• By not feeling worthy or deserving, we abdicate our bodies to the microbes and facilitate disease
• We are worthy of our own experience in this form; we are more than enough
• Microbes resonate at lower vibrations as do negative emotions
• Accommodations that we get from the disease process itself may at a subconscious level instruct
the body to hold on to the illness
• These emotions can be from our life, our ancestors, or even past lives (if one believes these exist)
• Positive and negative thoughts serve as epigenetic influencers of DNA
• Neurochemistry responds to emotions and sends the message you are feeling to your cells. We
become exactly what we are thinking and feeling
• Expel the microbes of false beliefs by resonating with your highest self
• Any stress negatively impacts the adrenals which negatively impacts the immune system which
allows microbes to flourish

• After years of searching, it was a lady at an outlet mall that finally provided meaningful information with her EAV device; all later confirmed with blood testing
•My number one tool for the past 10+ years has been energetic testing
• The body is far more than a physical body; it is an energetic body
•While these tools are not diagnostic, they can provide very meaningful insights and information
•My favorite system over the years has been Dr. Klinghardt’s Autonomic Response Testing (ART)
• There are many systems that can be explored

• What is one myth you’d like to bust about autism recovery?
• Speech and behavioral therapies alone may not maximize a child’s
full potential
• Considering ways to evaluate and reduce toxic and microbial burdens
may yield positive results
• Looking beyond the physical and exploring the mental, emotional,
and spiritual is also key; of the entire family unit
• Combining all of these can create a powerful synergy
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• What is the biggest mistake people can avoid making on the path to
recovering their child from autism?
• Ignoring the environmental impacts can have a significant negative
effect on recovery
• Ensure that there are no sources of environmental molds
• Evaluate and minimize EMF exposures in the home

• Any last nuggets of wisdom you’d like to leave with our listeners
today?
• Be kind to yourself
• Know that you matter and deserve to be well
• Don’t be overwhelmed by it all; healing takes time – it is a marathon, not a sprint
• Find a practitioner that uses some form of energetic testing so they can access
potentially helpful new insights
• Know that healing takes work and you can’t count on your doctor to do it for you
• Nourish your body with healing foods and eliminate stressful ones
• Focus on the things we’ve talked about – emotions, toxicity, and microbes along with
the mold, parasites, dental issues, and EMF reduction
• People can and do improve and can and do get well
Autism Recovery Telesummit
• Lyme disease is a messenger for many of us and the process of going
through it is life changing. While it is the biggest challenge many will
ever face, something beautiful often happens as a result of the
experience.
