Back Update: Sunday, November 13
//
Back injuries are tough. They can impact how you move, how you walk, how you get in and out of bed, how you go to the washroom, how you live. EVERYTHING.
//
That being said, I’m staying positive, seeing daily improvement & doing my best to use the tools I have to work on mobility, so that I don’t completely lock up & go crazy! 🤪
//
What am I doing to help…
•
1. REST - no position is truly comfortable so sleep is hard & ‘just’ laying around is not so fun BUT I don’t want to push myself & slow the healing process.
•
2. MOBILITY - all things hips. I find a lot of release from doing lower body mobility. Slow windshield wipers, ROM movements, internal/external work, etc.
•
3. BREATHING - all the slow deep belly breathing, feeling massive expansion & working into the tension. This also keeps me in a calm state & a reminder that I’m okay.
•
4. LOVE - has been by my side this whole time. Although she’s confused at why we haven’t been doing our usually walks & trails, she’s a trooper to chill & move slow with me. I love her so so much!

I’m learning to be patient & truly listen to my body. I know if a client was in my shoes, I would say rest, get some treatment (Physio, chiro, massage, whatever the preference is), & LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!!
//
Pain is tough. It’s frustrating, challenging & can be debilitating.
My passion & offering is MOVEMENT so it’s just that much harder to feel this way. I feel like I’m letting people down when I don’t (or in this case, can’t) show up.
