#9: Awakened in ICU: Chapter 9 of Robert Peterson's book, "This is Not Who I Am: Journey from 3D to 5D

ForResting the Soul with Christy

"From 30 tick bites to a 10-day hospital stay—this isn't just another survival story. It's a chapter in awakening."

In this powerful and raw return to the mic, Christy sits down once again with her father, Robert Peterson, after a months-long hiatus marked by major life events: a trip to Peru, a motorcycle accident, and a near-death encounter with a tick-borne illness that landed Robert in the ICU for five intense days.

What started as a routine day of yard work turned into a full-blown health crisis when Robert was unknowingly bitten by over 30 ticks, leading to a diagnosis of ehrlichiosis—a condition that quickly escalated into kidney failure, fever spikes over 105°, delirium, and a deeply unsettling hospital experience. Through honest reflection and laughter amidst the seriousness, this episode dives into:

• The messy overlap between personal intuition and modern medicine

• The signs, symptoms, and spiritual symbolism of tick-borne illness

• Why listening to your body might just save your life

• The importance of having a health advocate in today's medical system

• What it really means to follow Spirit—from the ICU to 5D

Christy and Robert unpack it all—raw and unfiltered—bringing heart, humor, and wisdom to yet another chapter in their shared journey of awakening. The takeaway? When you stop seeing things as "good" or "bad" and start tuning into deeper direction, life transforms.

📌 BONUS: Christy also shares insights from her current extended fast and how fasting, like illness, can crack open consciousness and invite radical healing.
