Fingers or fingertips that turn white, blue and then red, accompanied by pins and needles and numbness, are a sign of Raynaud’s disease, in which blood flow to the fingers is restricted. The exact cause is unknown but it often runs in families. While often just a nuisance, Raynaud’s can be linked to serious auto-immune conditions such as scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus.

As we face the uncertainties of the Coronavirus, and are called to a time of isolation, I challenge all of us to reframe this moment. We are living in “the moment before the moment,” where we do not yet have all of the answers. These times can create feelings of deep anxiety and unrest. What if we all took this season as a moment to reinvent human and planetary health, one person at a time? Your health is in your control. Here’s what you can do right now: Consume fresh, organic, nourishing food. Avoid sugar and processed food which weaken the immune system.

There are several dermatological issues that could cause white spots or patches on your hands. For example white patches on your hands could be caused by eczema, sun spots or pityriasis versicolour, a fungal infection that causes patches to develop on your skin. These discoloured areas could also be white, red brown or pink. The patches will be itchy, but are harmless.

My approach to healing became a daily rhythm: morning meditation, journaling, prayer, movement, proper rest and sleep, and deep breathing. I focused on making nourishing, organic meals that restored my energy and wellbeing, and drank plenty of pure water. An overactive thyroid speeds up the metabolism, causing anxiety, a fast heartbeat, sweating, weight loss and insomnia, and is another potential cause of trembling. Anxiety, stress, strong coffee and too much alcoholare culprits, too. Shaky hands may also be a sign of Parkinson’s. What to do about trembling hands At that point I realized that if I were going to get better, I was going to have to become my own health advocate. My health was in my hands. And thus, the journey to regeneration began.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) May 28, 2021 guidance [1], which lifted masking recommendations for vaccinated people in most situations, exemplifies a troubling shift-away from public health objectives that center equity and toward a model of individual personal responsibility for health. CDC Director Rochelle Walensky emphasized that “your health is in your hands” [2], undermining the idea that fighting COVID is a “public” health responsibility that requires the support of institutions and communities. The social impacts of this scientific guidance, combined with the emergence of new variants, have exposed the fallacy of this approach, with most local mask restrictions lifted and infections rising dramatically among disadvantaged populations [3]. Rapidly rising cases prompted the CDC on July 27th to recommend resuming indoor masking even for vaccinated people in “areas of substantial or high transmission,” [9] but US policy continues to frame the pandemic largely as a matter of individual responsibility – to the detriment of public health. As public health professionals and advocates, we call for a renewed commitment to core public health principles of collective responsibility, health equity, and human rights.

A sense of wholeness and belonging. I was healed to be a healer.
