So here the second part to the blog with the next 4 lessons I learnt during my injury.
Lesson 5 Emotions Come In Waves
All emotions are healthy. All emotions need a healthy outlet and release and should not be bottled upโฆ.
Breathing through it is important
Allowing it to flow through us is important The learning is in the Feelingโฆ. ๐๐๐
Lesson 6 Quiet Reflection and Gratitude
This really is an opportunity for gratitude
I'm grateful for the way in which my body moves and supports me
I'm grateful that it was a ligament and muscle strain
I'm grateful that I can walk and
That I can work and serve my clients whilst I heal and recover I'm so grateful for my healingI'm so grateful for how resilient my body is ๐๐๐
Lesson 7: The Goldilocks Effect and Pacing
How much is too much and what is just right or the right amount of movement
Thank you, body for all you teach me on a daily basis ๐๐๐
So often we want to rush through things to get out the other end, but the learning is in the journey, it's in the experience, itโs in that inner struggle we all go throughโฆโฆ
This is invaluable and helps us grow to be the powerful human beings we are destined to be.
Itโs through sharing this struggle with others, that they find empowering to champion them to keep going.
So, please allow this to unfoldโฆ ๐๐๐
Lesson 8: Patience, Self-compassion and Self-love
My ankle: Whilst minimised movement feels frustrating at times because I want to do more right now, this reminds me of the time when I injured my back and I had limited movement and was in constant pain for 6 months.
And this puts it all into perspective. I draw on that experience of patience, self-compassion and self-love right now
These experiences now and in the past help me be more compassionate, understanding and patience with my clients as a neurophysio
Therefore, this is all a beautiful gift ๐๐๐
I know that to some, this may be minor compared to the challengesโ others have faced especially my clients.
But the lessons and the messages remain the same...... and that is why I am drawn to share this with you.
I hope you find it useful.
To Your Enhanced Mobility, Health and Wellness
