About this listen
Rising Above Lyme Disease is a comprehensive, whole-body approach to overcoming Lyme disease and reclaiming your life.
Incidence of Lyme disease is skyrocketing. If caught early, antibiotics can often successfully treat it, but more often than not, Lyme is asymptomatic and evades diagnosis until it is a full-blown, chronic condition that requires a multi-faceted treatment plan.
In Rising Above Lyme Disease, renowned naturopath and Lyme-literate doctor Julia Greenspan presents a Comprehensive and Alternative Medicine (CAM) approach for recovery for those who have been suffering with this disease for weeks, months, years, or even decades. Operating from the front lines of the epidemic in New England, she gives hope to those who thought there was none, or feel unheard by all those around them.
Dr. Greenspan's integrative treatment plan addresses not only the body, but the mind as well, and includes:
- Standard protocols such as antibiotic and probiotic care, which can be essential to long-term healing (despite fears)
- Detoxing and dietary changes that help get proven results
- Therapies such as yoga, massage, earthing, and qi gong
- Therapies that dig deeper (when nothing else seems to be working) and focus on removing obstacles to healing, such as past trauma, negative beliefs about self, unhealthy lifestyle choices, genetics, hormone imbalance, environmental toxins, and other infections—all of which have a very real, and often overlooked, effect on recovery
Through this comprehensive approach that focuses on the whole person and the very personal ways in which the disease may affect one's life, it is possible to find relief, become your best advocate, and ultimately, rise above Lyme.

Story
Are you sick, but can't find any answers why? Do you have a seemingly unconnected collection of symptoms that leave doctors guessing? Or have you been diagnosed, but found that none of the treatments seems to make a difference? You may have Lyme disease and not even know it. Known as "the great imitator", Lyme disease and its associated co-infections can mimic the symptoms of and often be misdiagnosed as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, multiple sclerosis, and even depression.

Story
Dealing with chronic pain can be a nuisance and be damaging mentally and physically when it occurs daily. If you have ever felt this way, you most likely have already sought out other options. The problem is that most physicians want to throw conventional medication at the issues. When you get on medications, they most likely have a long list of terrifying side effects.

Millions of people are suffering from chronic illnesses that, unbeknownst to them, are the result of exposure to environmental toxins and infectious agents such as mold and Borrelia, which causes Lyme disease. Millions. Because the symptoms of these illnesses are so varied and unusual, many of these individuals have sought medical care only to be dismissed, as if what they are experiencing is “in their head”. Many (if not most) have tried to tough it out and continue to function without hope of improvement. Unfortunately, their illnesses are very real.

Despite being relatively unheard of, endometriosis affects an estimated one in 10 women worldwide. That's roughly 190 million people, and due to misdiagnosis, there's likely many more who are suffering without treatment. Getting a diagnosis of endometriosis can feel like a blessing and a curse. Knowing that you're not going crazy or blowing things out of proportion can be a huge relief. However, a diagnosis can also lead to feelings of isolation and discouragement - especially when you’re faced with treatment options that seem extreme. But don't despair - you aren't alone.

New hope for those suffering from conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, addictions, PTSD, ADHD, and more. Though incidence of these conditions is skyrocketing, for the past four decades standard treatment hasn’t much changed, and success rates in treating them have barely improved, either. Meanwhile, the stigma of the “mental illness” label - damaging and devastating on its own - can often prevent sufferers from getting the help they need. Brain specialist and best-selling author Dr. Daniel Amen aims to change all that.

Critic reviews
“In Rising Above Lyme Disease, naturopathic Dr. Julia Greenspan provides an easy to understand guide and overview of classical and natural therapies for those with tick-borne illness. This book is a must read for those wanting to understand how to bridge the best of Western, Eastern, and natural approaches.”—Richard Horowitz, M.D., New York Times best-selling author of How Can I Get Better? An Action Plan for Treating Resistant Lyme & Chronic Disease
“It is not until one is diagnosed with Lyme disease that most discover how truly complicated and misunderstood tick-borne illness really is. This book is not only educational, but also inspiring, as Dr. Greenspan comes from the perspective of both a naturopathic doctor and recovered Lyme patient. She’s been through the throes of the illness and has come out on the other side, bringing with her an understanding and drive to help Lyme patients with real passion—and this shines through in Rising Above Lyme Disease. This book helps navigate your way through an incredibly complex illness by educating you on testing, self-advocacy, supportive therapies, and the ever-important education we all need for prevention.”—Laura Piazza, co-author of Recipes for Repair: A 10-Week Program to Combat Chronic Inflammation and and Identify Food Sensitivities
“It takes a special person to outsmart a spirochete and a special doctor to dare enough to do it. From demystifying and untangling a dizzying array of symptoms with keen intuition, proper testing, and comprehensive assessment, to her effective and ever-adaptable naturopathic treatment plan—an intelligent and bold combination of antibiotic medications, probiotics, herbal medicine, detox, cognition support and more—Julia Greenspan is that special person and doctor. I should know because I was her patient. Julia goes above and beyond in this book to address things no one else has—from dealing with the trauma of this devastating illness, to facing denial and cost, to how to present yourself and your challenges to family, co-workers, and schools. This is a most honest and practical guide to getting your life back.”—Joy Devins, Lyme disease survivor and thriver, and author of Lyme Whisperer: The Secret’s Out

Learned SO much!
This book is such a “MUST-READ” or “MUST LISTEN”! It explains so much about Lyme, co-infections, bacteria’s, tests, diet, etc. and I wish I read it right after diagnosis in June 2024! This author, Dr. Julia Greenspan had Lyme and Co-infections herself, and battled it like all of us are doing, for a long time. It’s so nice to read a book where the author REALLY gets it and all the things she has tried on herself to battle Lyme!
