No “Watch & Wait”
I chose not to wait for my health to decline. Instead, I sought another path — one that honored both science and spirit.
That search first led me to CLL survivor and holistic coach Glen Sabin and then to mycologist Paul Stamets whose work opened the door to the vast healing potential of fungi. A simple TikTok post from Paul caught my eye: cordyceps might support immunity. That spark was all I needed. I began experimenting, and with it, the first steps of my medicine man journey took shape – guided by cordyceps in my fight with CLL.
With hope as my compass, I turned toward cordyceps. From a small grower in the U.S.(Fungi Jon),
I gathered the dried fungi and began a simple ritual: each day, a cup of warm tea, 8 ounces of earth’s quiet medicine. I started on August 22, 2023.
Eight weeks later, the unthinkable became real — my blood showed no trace of leukemia. Every number had returned to balance. No other treatment. No changes to my daily life. Only this one ally.
Cordyceps became more than a remedy; it was a teacher. A doorway into remembering that healing is possible, that nature holds medicines we have yet to fully honor, and that when we listen, the path opens before us.
The Benefits of Cordyceps Militaris
For those who wish to explore further, many of the known benefits of Cordyceps are outlined on the Fungi Jon blog and product pages. Science continues to uncover its potential, and while much research is still to be done, the experiences of those who walk this path — myself included — suggest that cordyceps has more to teach us than we yet understand.
My journey is just one story. If it can serve as a spark or guidepost for others seeking healing, then the medicine of cordyceps is already doing its work.
