From injury to healing and thriving!
Sometimes what feels like a setback in the moment leads to something healing and inspiring.
Four years ago I was training for a half marathon when I took a hard fall. At the time it felt frustrating - an injury that disrupted my training and left me in pain. But that fall led me to meeting Chris Simon .massagetherapy, a massage therapist in FL who has become a trusted practitioner.
He helped me recover and get back on track and I still see him to this day whenever I visit my sister and friends in FL! Recently I even had the pleasure of personally delivering one of my books that he ordered to himđ
The ripple effect of that âsetbackâ continues to spread - Chris has also been able to help a close friend of mine whoâs been dealing with chronic pain.
If youâre going through a difficult time right now, remember thisâŚ
That injury, that challenge, that hardship - as much as we wish these things would never happen in the first place - they may end up leading you to a solution, a connection or an opportunity you never would have found otherwise.
The body holds memory of the trauma response so sometimes massage therapy can be helpful for the mind in addition to the body. What makes the difference is the practitioner and the application of what they know as well as the readiness of you, the client.
Itâs important to hold onto that kind of hope when going through rough times!
