Myeonhoewon · Stage 1 〈The Seed of Recovery〉
The Seed of Recovery — adding nothing for two weeks
I suffered for 25 years, and by piling on ‘the good stuff’ I once relapsed within a month. So for the first two weeks you start nothing new. Only two things: removing, and recording under the same conditions.

First we measure what you can do now
What to take out depends on where you are. These questions are not a diagnosis — they pick which tier you start from.

Five things to do over two weeks
It's all about removing or recording. Nothing new is added. The way I failed most badly was ‘adding everything good all at once.’
For two weeks you start no new product, no new supplement, no new method. You keep using only what you use now.
Why If you change several things at once, even when it worsens you can't tell what caused it. Not knowing this, I relapsed within a month.
One photo a day. Taken at the same spot, same time, same lighting. Don't change the angle to look better.
Why Looking every day, you don't see change. Overlay them two weeks later and then you see it.
One line is enough. What you ate, when you slept, whether you woke in the night.
Why Looking at the two days before a bad day usually holds the clue. If you don't write it down, you won't remember those two days.
It's not about resisting the urge to scratch. It's about writing one line before you scratch — what time, where, doing what.
Why Resisting takes effort and doesn't last. Writing takes less, and as you write, the recurring times and situations become visible.
Fix your bedtime, not your wake-up time. Keep weekends the same too.
Why The itch worsens at night. When sleep is shaky, the whole next day is shaky.
What 'the same conditions' actually means
These are the photos I have kept every two weeks since 31 July 2017. I did not pick flattering angles — I shot from the same place at the same angle every time. That is what makes them comparable.

Two-week schedule
Each level does something different. Level A only records. Even if you want to do more than below, hold back for two weeks.
| Tier | Week 1 | Week 2 | Not leaving it out |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | One photo a day · one line on what you ate and when you slept | Add logging the moment you scratch here | Medication · keep every product you use now |
| B | All of level A + fixing your bedtime | Add cutting back hot water and long baths here | Medication · keep every product you use now |
| C | All of level B + marking the two days before a bad day | Find and write down two places where it goes back | Medication · keep every product you use now |

Just keep this rule
- Keep your medication as is. Reducing or stopping it must be decided with your own medical team. We give no advice on medication whatsoever.
- Add nothing new for two weeks. Even if you hear something is good, just note it and put it off until week three or later. Change everything at once and you'll never know what made it better or worse.
- Don't try to write records well. One line is enough. Trying to write long is what makes most people quit within three days.
- Don't change the conditions of your photos. Same spot, same time, same lighting. You need comparable photos, not flattering ones.
- Having worse days is normal. Getting better within two weeks isn't the goal. The goal is finding out what makes it waver.

The date it was taken is still in the photo · this is my own case
Once two weeks of records pile up
The next stage is 〈Purify〉. With two e-books and 48 lectures, you see how immunity breaks down, from beginning to end. After that, 〈Rebuild〉 carries it into the body through one minute of logging a day for 20 weeks, and 〈Full Recovery〉 reads the records with you each month.
