Let’s get real. To heal from physical ailments, not medicate or numb symptoms, requires honestly looking at our lives from a WHOLEistic perspective. No more parting ourselves out, let’s take a look at the bigger picture, shall we?
Because it’s time to get really honest when we suffer from the physical symptoms of stress overload and chronic nervous system dysregulation. Ask:
Am I overwhelmed?
Am I unfulfilled?
What emotional pain and I avoiding?
Who is living “rent free” in my head, ruminating over the past, and worrying about the future?
Chronic inflammatory conditions like pain, autoimmunity, skin and digestion issues SCREAM “notice me” “care for me” “stop ignoring me” “I need rest!” Are you finally ready to acknowledge and respond to your body’s cries for attention?
Or do you want to just keep on pretending your ok? That you’re not as important as every other person in your orbit? The signs will only get more intense, more severe.
Find ways to relax, to relate with others who you can be real with. Learn to reframe your emotional wounds into the fuel for becoming the healthy version of yourself you wish you were.
I am living proof. Diving deep into the roots of your physical pain leads you to your healthiest self. Find your people to support you. A health coach, a cognitive reframing therapist (or IFS) is a great place to start believing it’s possible.
Reach out if you’re ready.
