Week of 5/25/26, on The Lillian McDermott Radio Show/Classroom!

Happy Sunday! 

As I reflect on the results of my bloodwork, it has become apparent that I need to prioritize my time toward health. Stress, although I truly love everything I do, has caused the Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) to become more active in my body.

What does that mean for me? It means I get to return to the basics… research, learn, grow, rest, heal, and eventually report back once I better understand how to place this very misunderstood virus back into remission.

Like many people, I had heard of Epstein-Barr before. But I never fully understood how it can remain dormant in the body for years, only to resurface during periods of chronic stress, emotional overload, immune depletion, poor sleep, trauma, or burnout. What surprised me most is how much research is now exploring the relationship between EBV, chronic inflammation, immune dysfunction, autoimmune conditions, and certain cancers.

While I destress and enjoy my summer, I will make sure I keep you posted on my journey to understand EBV and calm this silent saboteur.

What Research Is Revealing About Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV)

  • More than 90% of adults worldwide have been infected with EBV at some point in their lives. Once infected, the virus remains in the body for life in a dormant or “latent” state.
  • EBV is the virus most commonly associated with mononucleosis (“mono”), but many people never realize they had it.
  • Researchers have found that EBV can reactivate during times of chronic stress, immune dysfunction, or exhaustion.
  • Scientific literature has linked EBV to autoimmune conditions including multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis, and Sjögren’s syndrome.
  • Studies suggest EBV may contribute to immune dysregulation through mechanisms such as molecular mimicry, immune evasion, and chronic inflammation.
  • EBV has also been associated with certain cancers, including Hodgkin lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and some gastric cancers.
  • Because symptoms can vary widely, including fatigue, brain fog, inflammation, swollen glands, body aches, and immune exhaustion, many people may never suspect EBV could be part of their health picture.
  • Researchers continue studying whether viral reactivation may act as a trigger in genetically susceptible individuals rather than being the sole cause of disease.

For me, this season is not about fear. It is about awareness, priorities, self-love, wisdom, rest, faith, and learning how to support my body before the whispers turn into shouts. Prevention is key!

I know I am not the only one dealing with EBV. Is there something in your life, associated with your health, that just won’t go away? Do you have a plan? How will you stop, research, and prevent?

Let’s take our health back together!

It is a new week and here is what’s happening on

The Lillian McDermott Radio Show/Classroom!

 

 

Monday, 5/25/26 Facebook Throwback Party 8:05 am ~ The voices in our head are always speaking, often influencing how we see ourselves, others, and the world around us. Some are rooted in past experiences, fear, or conditioning. While others offer wisdom, intuition, and truth. When we don’t pause to question these inner messages, they can quietly run our lives, fueling self-doubt, stress, and disconnection. By learning to recognize where these voices come from and how they shape our thoughts and reactions, we gain the power to respond with awareness instead of habit. I will share how choosing to rewrite the story can lead us to compassion, curiosity, and truth which allows us to create inner peace, strengthen confidence, and live with greater clarity and intention. (Aired 3/12/26)

 

Tuesday, 5/26/26 Facebook Throwback Party 8:05 am ~ Brain health isn’t something we need to wait to address in a doctor’s office; it’s something we can observe, track, and improve from home. John Silva, DC, knows firsthand how insights from brain diagnostics can reveal cognitive patterns, stress responses, and nervous system function. And this can be done all from the place where we often feel most comfortable, our home. When we understand these signals, we’re better equipped to make supportive lifestyle choices that enhance mental clarity and long-term brain wellness. Dr. Silva shares how recognizing early signs of imbalance can empower us to strengthen focus, reduce cognitive decline, and live with a clearer, healthier, more resilient mind, without waiting for an office appointment. (Aired 3/18/26)

 

Wednesday, 5/27/26 WYNAF,YouTube, or Facebook PREMIERE 8:05 am ~ Many of us carry the effects of daily stress, environmental exposure, and fatigue without realizing how much it impacts the way we feel. Over time, low energy, sluggishness, and tension can become so common that we begin to accept them as normal. Wellness advocate Paula Childers joins me to discuss Alimtox Ion Cell Cleanse Foot Baths and how this soothing wellness practice is being used to support relaxation, circulation, and the body’s natural cleansing processes. Paula will share how creating intentional moments of restoration may help us feel lighter, more energized, and better connected to our overall well-being.

 

Thursday, 5/28/26 WYNAF,YouTube, or Facebook PREMIERE 8:05 am ~ Many of us say we trust God. Yet when life becomes uncertain, we often find ourselves bargaining and grasping for control, telling God what to do and how to do it. We want reassurance and guarantees that everything will work out exactly as we hope. And when things do not go our way, we may pout, grow angry with God, or even feel abandoned. I talk often about unconditional love, but what about unconditional trust? The practice of unconditional trust invites us to remain open, grounded, and faithful, even when we cannot see the full picture. I have learned that trust is not about pretending life will always be easy. It is about believing that even our challenges can lead us toward growth, wisdom, deeper peace, and ultimately, to God’s perfect plan. I will share how practicing unconditional trust can help us move beyond fear and into a life guided by faith, surrender, and the inner calm that comes from knowing everything will ultimately be alright.

 

Friday, 5/29/26 Facebook Throwback Party 8:05 am ~ We all encounter difficult people at some point in our lives. How we respond to them often reveals more about our own emotional health than theirs. It’s easy to feel triggered, defensive, or even powerless when someone behaves in ways that feel disrespectful, confrontational, or dismissive. Yet these moments can become powerful opportunities to grow in patience, boundaries, and self-awareness. When we learn to pause, respond thoughtfully, and remain grounded in our values, we begin to shift the dynamic from frustration to empowerment. I will share how understanding how to navigate these relationships with clarity, compassion, and healthy limits can transform difficult encounters into lessons that strengthen our character and deepen our inner peace. (Aired 3/19/26)
