My Apology To My Body

Dear Body,

I am so sorry for all the pain and overuse I put you through for so many years. And all the neglect I inflicted upon you, and all the poison chemicals and poison emotions I subjected you to. I am so sorry I
hurt you.

I know you will never be the same because of what I did to you. But I promise you from now on I will take care of you. And not use you to feed, or be the punching bag for, a wounded ego. Dear Body...

please forgive me.

(((James))) I could have written what you did. It is a something I've tried to push to the back of my mind.

I'll sign up with you to the let's take better care of our bodies and minds.

My leg is trashed, and i am fighting to save it, to make it functional again. pain index daily basis: 3 to 5, or so. My neck is messed up from early sibling abuse. It weirds out, various pain levels. Seems stress related. Physical therapy and dietary cleansing is putting some hurt on me, all the toxins, all the self inflicted injury, it's all there like a road map.

Maybe the stress tightens the surrounding muscles and exascerbates the injuries?

Tried yoga? Its not a perfect fit for me, but it is related in a way to body memory.

A lot of frozen limbs have come good through yoga. And you can 'talk your leg' through it. Loving it just how it is, and apologising for what its going through mentally while gently increasing blood flow and movement.

Dont do what I did last Monday. I trashed myself...lol Pushed it to the max and my muscles were screaming late the next day. But for me thats the starting point to see where I am at. Next week I'll take it easy on myself a little more ;)

 

[Srain]

((((James)))) take it easy and be kind to yourself.

peace and healing,
Rain
