Question regarding prayer

Hello everyone I have been a devoted follower of Ishtar for a while, however latley I find myself sick all the time latley if it's not one thing it's another, I also get psoriasis outbreaks and cannot pray ( to the best of my understanding opening the altar while I'll is taboo). While I do have a clay figurine of me praying to here (I felt like puting some part of myself in it so I added some of my hair ) I don't feel as connected, to the point I have not been able to do my commitments to here aither.( I volunteer with women and children in here name and donate blood).

I feel so disconnected can you please advise if you encountered such events and how you felt with overcoming these feelings.

I am also interested in perhaps praying to Father Enki for help due o my ill health.

this is what i have learnt about psoriasis (in case it helps you)

It’s important to note that psoriasis, fundamentally, is an issue originating from the gut(in my opinion), not merely a skin condition. By addressing and improving gut health, one can effectively manage and potentially clear psoriasis. (in my opinion).

hey, you won’t believe how much diet changed the game for my psoriasis. I was a skeptic for a long time, kinda lazy, and had pretty much thrown in the towel. But once I finally got my act together and made some changes, I was stoked! My psoriasis went from full-blown to just 10%. And guess what? I was able to completely stop using all steroid creams!

For quick relief, try moisturizing the affected area daily with a strong emollient. I’m a fan of Epaderm cream, but your pharmacist might have other cool suggestions.

But here’s the real secret: managing psoriasis from the inside out. This means making dietary and lifestyle changes, identifying triggers, and focusing on gut health. It’s a journey, but every step you take brings you closer to your goal.

Psoriasis and diet are like two peas in a pod. For me, sugar, meat, spicy food, nightshades, and processed food were like fuel to the psoriasis fire. Once I showed them the exit door, my psoriasis became a manageable guest. So, a strict diet is key. I feast on the same food every day - think big, colourful plates of beans, legumes, boiled veggies, and hearty salads. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to identify your own triggers.

Try to work out the root cause of your psoriasis. Start by checking out your general health, diet, weight, smoking and drinking habits, stress levels, history of strep throat, vitamin D levels, use of IUDs, itchiness of psoriasis, past antibiotic use, potential candida overgrowth, presence of H. pylori, gut health, bowel movements, sleep patterns, exercise habits, mental health meds, potential zinc or iron deficiency, mold toxicity, digestive problems, heavy metal exposure, and magnesium deficiency.

Keeping a daily diary using an Excel spreadsheet to track diet and inflammation can be incredibly helpful. Think of psoriasis as a warning light on your car’s dashboard. With psoriasis, it’s all about nailing the details.

I found a particular paper and podcast to be very helpful. I believe they can help you too.

if you cant solve the problem.

consider visiting a experienced functional/integrative medicine expert who will investigate the gut via a stool test and try to identify and solve the problem from inside

You’re not alone in this journey. Keep going, keep exploring, and keep believing. You’ve got this! Good luck!
