Hi friends,
It’s been 10 weeks since the accident and in the past couple of weeks, I’ve finally started to
feel real progress! 💜
Healing has felt a bit like putting together a jigsaw puzzle. You start with the easy pieces — the corners and edges — but the middle takes time, patience, and persistence. Slowly but surely, it’s coming together.
My organs have recovered. My bones are healing. I’ve replaced medications with supplements. And every day, I try to add one thing that helps me feel more like me.
Before the accident, I had a lot of strength and healthy habits “in the bank.” After two months of healing on the couch, that account was fully depleted. Now, I’m making daily deposits again — small, steady habits that are restoring my strength and energy. I am, quite literally, reclaiming my life.
That said, it’s not all butterflies and unicorns - yet. I still have consistent pain, lingering PTSD, and a road ahead before full recovery. Healing isn’t a straight line, but I’m learning to meet each day with gratitude, patience, and hope.
If you’ve gotten off track with your yoga practice, meditation ritual, or mindful nutrition, it’s never too late to turn things around and reclaim your wellness. When you release the pressure of big expectations and focus on small, consistent actions, those daily deposits create a well of resilience — and you never know when you’ll need to draw from it! 💪
I don’t have words big enough to express my gratitude for my family, friends, and the breathe community. Your love, kindness, and encouragement have been the fuel I’ve needed to get through this experience. Thank you — truly. ❤️
I’m easing back into work a few hours a day, and I’m so excited to see the familiar faces I’ve missed. In some ways, it feels like I’ve been gone forever; in others, like no time has passed at all.
Either way, it feels so good to be back!
With love and gratitude,
Cyndi
