1:1 · 8-Week Parasite Cleanse Reset

Some of your symptoms, like cravings, fatigue, + mood swings… aren't actually yours

In Chinese medicine, they're called Hungry Ghosts — patterns of insatiable hunger that show up physically as parasites and toxins, and emotionally as cravings, obsessive loops, and symptoms that never fully resolve.

Guts + Ghosts is built for wellness rebels who want a fully customized, 1:1 parasite cleanse without going to extremes — high-touch, eyes-on-you strategies rooted in the Five Elements of Chinese medicine.

Why the Cravings Keep Coming Back

In Chinese medicine, they're called Hungry Ghosts.

Old texts describe them as beings with huge bellies and tiny throats — endless hunger, no ability to actually digest or assimilate. Modern translation: a system taking in more than it can process. Compromised digestion. A congested liver. A nervous system that never fully powers down.

Cravings & Obsessive Loops

Sugar, screens, looping thoughts — patterns that don't respond to willpower, because they were never a willpower problem.

Symptoms That Keep Returning

You've done "everything right" by someone else's protocol, and your body still isn't settling. That's a signal, not a personal failure.

Parasites, Often Part of the Picture

Most people carry some. Whether clearing them helps or backfires depends entirely on timing and what else is happening in your system.

Guts + Ghosts is built to bring order to that — gut first, timing second, cleanse third.

Why Order of Operations Matters

I built this after watching a cleanse go sideways.

A client came to me mid-crisis. She was partway through a parasite cleanse she'd found on her own — a genuinely good protocol — and she was vomiting up parasites, scared, and stuck on what to do next.

We paused the cleanse. Gathered her body's information. Found deeper patterns that needed attention first. Her body wasn't ready for that cleanse yet — not because cleansing was wrong for her, but because the order was off.

That decision changed her outcome. Months later, once her foundation was actually in place, she did another parasite cleanse — this time gently, effectively, no crisis. That experience is exactly why Guts + Ghosts exists as its own structured, 1:1 process: so the order of operations gets handled before the cleanse, not during it.

Most people carry parasites. Few have checked whether their body is ready to clear them.

The furry coating across the center is already thinning — before the cleanse itself even begins. In her words: “I feel lighter in my body — not necessarily weight loss, but I don't feel so grossly bloated.” Mapping your terrain first isn't a formality; it's where the shift starts.

What Changes

The Investment

One practitioner. Eight weeks. Your body specifically.

$1,497

Parasite kit not included — plan on roughly $100 for your herbal cleanse kit. Both links open Bri's booking page to lock in your spot.

Not sure a cleanse is your first step?

If you've got long-standing patterns — cycles, skin, mood, digestion — that haven't budged no matter what you've tried, cleansing might work better as a later step inside a longer container, not the opener. That's exactly why Guts + Ghosts is also built in as a bonus inside UNSCRIPTED, my 12-month 1:1 immersion. Book a free Tongue Mapping Session and we'll figure out the right order together.
