Yoga for Falling Apart

There are two types of ‘native’ Texans: 1. The ones born here, who live here, and die here. And 2. the ones who move reaaally far away. Recent events may inspire more of the second kind.

I don’t know your pain journey, but have you tried low-dose naltrexone? It has been amazing for my chronic pain, although I ended up pushing up to standard (ie not-low dose) levels for management.

A 3 minute meditation in the midst of family-love-drama-chaos can be more powerful than an hour sitting quietly at home. Not sure where to go? And a peaceful escape is only a toilet seat away!

“Parkinson’s tremors were once believed to come from suppressed desires.” - wow, that hits me! Those of us who actually experience these illnesses know how dumb the phrase “psychosomatic” will sound in the future, when science shows the mechanisms behind how these disorders actually work.

Doing something you don’t want to do requires motivation, and coming up with motivation uses energy. Nothing reveals my dislikes faster than living on an energy budget. I’ve learned I can save ⚡️ by changing my mindset - figuring out exactly what I don’t like about the task, and why.

Illness is the unwanted vacation you refused to take, but your body and soul demanded anyway. Coming out of a two-week flare felt like starting over, until I realized I didn't lose the gains I made! My mind is stronger, more disciplined. Returning to my old self becomes easier each time.
