Hi there! So here the second part to the blog with the next 4 lessons I learnt during my injury. 

Lesson 5 Emotions Come In Waves 

All emotions are healthy. All emotions need a healthy outlet and release and should not be bottled up…. 

Breathing through it is important 

Allowing it to flow through us is important The learning is in the Feeling…. 💓💓💓 

Lesson 6 Quiet Reflection and Gratitude 

This really is an opportunity for gratitude 

I'm grateful for the way in which my body moves and supports me

I'm grateful that it was a ligament and muscle strain

I'm grateful that I can walk and 

That I can work and serve my clients whilst I heal and recover  I'm so grateful for my healingI'm so grateful for how resilient my body is 💓💓💓 

Lesson 7: The Goldilocks Effect and Pacing 

How much is too much and what is just right or the right amount of movement

Thank you, body for all you teach me on a daily basis 💓💓💓

So often we want to rush through things to get out the other end, but the learning is in the journey, it's in the experience, it’s in that inner struggle we all go through……

This is invaluable and helps us grow to be the powerful human beings we are destined to be. 

It’s through sharing this struggle with others, that they find empowering to champion them to keep going. 

So, please allow this to unfold… 💓💓💓 

Lesson 8: Patience, Self-compassion and Self-love  

My ankle: Whilst minimised movement feels frustrating at times because I want to do more right now, this reminds me of the time when I injured my back and I had limited movement and was in constant pain for 6 months. 

And this puts it all into perspective. I draw on that experience of patience, self-compassion and self-love right now

These experiences now and in the past help me be more compassionate, understanding and patience with my clients as a neurophysio 

Therefore, this is all a beautiful gift 💓💓💓 

I know that to some, this may be minor compared to the challenges’ others have faced especially my clients. 

But the lessons and the messages remain the same...... and that is why I am drawn to share this with you. 

I hope you find it useful.  

To Your Enhanced Mobility, Health and Wellness 

With Love and Gratitude
