Sending love and healing light your way, Karen. I have multiple chronic illnesses as well. They are all intertwined with our emotions, unresolved issues, etc, as you mentioned. I am always listening to what my body has to teach me about me. It's amazing.
“I believe that many health issues are not just the result of unhealthy lifestyles and toxins but also the result of unresolved stress and trauma, unhealthy patterns of being, living in a toxic environment or with toxic people, suppressing emotions and repressing our true selves.” I’m with you on this. I pushed through and pushed through life, and wasn’t even aware there was permission to practice self care until chronic inflammation, gut pain, and the loss of most of my hair from a rare form of alopecia got my attention.
I resonate with you when you write of your journey, even as you fight against yourself for taking care of what needs to be taken care of when it comes to food choices, exercise, and rest. If I were writing something I wanted published now, I would not stop either. Even if I knew (and I do know) my words will form better if I rest and recoup.
I’ve made great strides in the past few years, and thankfully, I am healing. My gut is healing. My emotions are honored. And I have more energy and lose fewer days to pain and brain fog.
Thanks for sharing your experiences. Not only do they resonate with others, I believe they will give hope and direction to others.
