This season of transformation has been a wild ride 🎢 Something happens deep within when you accept the up’s AND down’s of a season. For the last 3 months, I’ve been focusing on the wrong gap. Let me explain… There are 2 gaps every person focuses on, the one at the starting line and the finish line. If you’re always reaching for where you were, or focusing on the backslide, you’re looking at the finish line. When you look at how far you’ve come, you’re looking at the start line. Remember this the next time you feel discouraged or like you’re backsliding bc regardless of which season you’re in, you ARE going to make it….you just need to mind the gap 🫶🏼 • • • #gettoknowme #faithandgumption #sahm #gumptionmom #transformationtuesday #youcandothistoo #healthylivingtips #growth #internalhealth #chronicpainmama #thechange #reclaimhealth #chronicpainwarrior #regainhealth #inthistogether #peoplehelpingpeople

Saying goodbye to my poor, broken house. My first house, the house we wanted and worked for for so long. The house where my babies started zoom school, middle and high school. Where my sweet Cupcake lived and died. Where my marriage died.

Today, I invite you on a journey of discovery as we delve into the intricate web of hidden root causes that often lie beneath the surface of chronic illness. Holistic healing and true wellness encompasses the mind, body, and soul. I like to refer to these as the 3 selves, and it is in exploring these “selves” that we unlock the body's innate healing potential. As a holistic practitioner specialising in autoimmune and chronic illnesses, I've had the privilege of guiding countless individuals on their healing journeys. Through my work, I've come to recognise five key hidden root causes that play a profound role in perpetuating chronic illness. #autoimmunehealing #autoimmunedisease #axialspondyloarthritis #cfs #me #fibro #fibromyalgia #chronicillnesshealing #chronicpain #chronicpainwarrior #spoonie #spoonielife #healingispossible #mindbodysoul #mindbodysoulhealing #jenologyuk

💚 Every Day IS the New Beginning. ✨ Start NOW! 🦾 YOU are IN CONTROL! ❔QOTD: How quickly can you bounce back after a bad day? 🌞 Good morning folks! This is a kind of yesterday's follow up! I really really had mixed Monday 😅 I actually wanted to type, 'I had really really shitty Monday ' but that's not entirely true. 🔸I woke up in pain (worse than usual) 🔸 With fatigue and other symptoms flare ups 🔸I was overwhelmed 🔸I needed routine due to my AuDHD but every time something disrupts it (good or bad) I have to implement it slowly again and again. @kodylukens explained it perfectly and I recommend his page for anyone who is or might be neurodivergent. 🔸I sat on bed, hungry, thirsty, without taking medication, bursting for a wee (and number two 🤭) resulting in even worse pain BUT I COULDN'T MOVE. 🔸My brain couldn't decide which task to do first. 🔸Then when I got up my suspected #potsuralorthostatictachycardiasyndrome (POTS - hashtag so you can research if you will) kicked off and I almost fainted. I couldn't see for a while, and almost hit the floor. 🔸Then I had a panic attack. It was shit 🔸Then I felt awful about not doing the doing and missing on Monday and I have so much to do. 🔸 But I regrouped and did lots - not all but lots and this is what counts! 🦾 I also decided to start again on Tuesday - not to give up entirely on Monday but write it off and do my best and try from q fresh place the next day. 💣 And so! A lot if people waits the whole week: I will start diet from Monday. Or month, Or even a year! The New Year resolution and all that. 🧠 Our brains, as it seems, love having an almost tangible point to start again. And that's okay. But YOU ARE IN CONTROL when this happens. Start every day. Forget yesterday. Don't wish for tomorrow. Start NOW. Regroup. Have a cuppa. And get going. Have a great day.

Are you in pain?😣 Around one third to one half of the UK population suffers with chronic pain. 😔 And I used to be in that statistic. Yes, past tense! The majority of the discomfort and pain I had for years; which caused my mobility to decease, my emotional stability to be on the edge and had affected my mental health, is now gone! 🤩 When I learned about emotions becoming 'trapped' in the body, through not processing them, a light bulb clicked on in my head! 💡😮 For me, Belief Coding®️ and energy healing are a fantastic combination! ✨ Even using energy healing alone can reduce pain! I am very grateful to be trained in both so I can help myself and others 🙏 Comment your favourite emoji below if you've experienced your pain improve with energy healing or Belief Coding®️! #chronicpain #chronicpainwarrior #chronicpainrelief #beliefcoding #beliefcoding®️ #alternativehealing #energyhealing #energyhealingpractitioner #Fife

What's the hardest part of advocating for my illness? The fact that it's Invisible , Inflammatory Arthritis. Since my diagnosis of Inflammatory Arthritis in Sept' 2023, I am in my flare up, it's more related to RA but kind of mixed...My rheumatologist says the line of treatment is gonna be the same. I keep advocating for myself whenever I get new symptoms but it's really annoying because we often get dismissed by others (not by my rheumatologist ) or get blamed on stress. Because of this, It feels like a never ending battle with our body because the invisible symptoms and normal blood reports don't make it any easier to fight through. Nevertheless, it's important to trust your intuition and keep advocating for yourself..& always remember that we are doing the best we can and we know our body more than anyone else. ✨ P.S It's not a medical post but based on my experience, you can share yours. I hope to use this platform to connect as we often feel alone and isolated, when we shouldn't. ❤️‍🩹 . . #arthritis #flareup #inflammatoryarthritis #fibromyalgia #migraine #autoimmunedisease #healing #battle #livingwitharthritis #jointpains #musclefatigue #mentalhealth #arthritissucks #stressrelief #anxiety #nausea #rheumatoidarthritis #immobilitysucks #inflammation #arthritisawareness #fightingautoimmune #invisibleillness #invisibleillnesswarrior #chronicpain #chronicpainwarrior #stillawesome #stillamazing

I hear two things today that hit me hard, one is the term "Mortality Motivation" and basically it just means we find motivation in the fact that life is so short. The other was a working mom (turned entrepreneur) whose son asked her for breakfast but she was in such a hurry to get out of the house to work (usually she wasn't there for breakfast and dad did that part) that she had to say she didn't have time. She wanted to change her circumstances so she could be the one "serving the bread" not just bringing it home. (I have told Foster I don't have time to make pancakes MANY times). My schooling, our hectic weekly schedules (he goes to dad's on the weekends) and my recent diagnosis has taken so much time from this boy and all I want to do is make sure we are living our best days NOW because we aren't getting more time than what we have now and we never know what tomorrow holds. Cooking with him tonight, building Lego and having a dance party between bowling turns on Wii is something that has been long overdue. I need this movement, this mindset and this properly fuelled body to keep up these moments. To ensure I am as healthy and in the least amount of pain possible to enjoy this ONE chance at life I am given. I'm not settling for less. #servethebread #mortalitymotivation #momlife #chronicpainwarrior #boymom #bodi #fiercefactory

NEW CRAVINGS ❤️‍🔥 April 29, Day 18 Post Op (see prior post) My ME/CFS symptoms remain in remission. 🤔 I have what, to me, is a tremendous amount of energy, though probably 40-50% of a normal person's. My acute chronic nerve pain is still gone. I'm not having true fatigue, just tiredness; or any PEM, and my sleep seems to be becoming restorative (?). I'm still resting in bed for about half the day. I'm still in utter disbelief. I'm also seeing small improvements in my mast cell activation disease, that is, my histamine tolerance. Today I made scrambled eggs with Iberian ham (spanish cravings w histamines 😅), stovetop espresso (more cravings), and a baked GF baguette. This is the first egg breakfast I've cooked for myself in years! When I was able to stand, the standing, or even seated on a stool and getting ingredients, then stirring, heating, exhausted me. I always got bad post-exertional malaise (think a bad flu with a lot more pain + paralysis) and be out for 48 hours. So it just wasn't worth it. This breakfast was worth it! I've realized that for many years I've been eating to survive. Only that. My eating envelope, on a very restricted diet, has been getting smaller and smaller. So I ate what I could. I didn't think to eat for a particular flavor--that was a luxury I usually couldn't afford. No resentment, no sentimentality. If I ate histamines I could die. If I ate gluten I could be throwing up for hours. If I ate sugar I could ramp my pain from a 6 to a 10. With those kinds of incentives, the alternatives are not...alternatives. They are just outside my food envelope. Just like walking was outside my mobility envelope. I'm still exploring what I may be able to eat now. It's a careful exploration because I don't want to end up in the ER with an Epi-Pen in my leg. But man, I'm starting to wake up. ⏰️ These discoveries are amazing, like a child in a wonderland. I didn’t expect surgery to change my life like this. At the very most, I expected to get my mobility and some pain relief. But this? So far, this is my lottery. No, this is my LIFE. ❤️‍🔥 #smallwinsbigvictories #mecfsrecovery ? #meactnet @meactnet #mecfswarrior #chronicillness

Within the torn edges of healing, lies a simple truth: You are whole. Despite the challenges, the setbacks, and the moments of doubt, your essence remains complete. Each fragment represents a part of your journey, but none diminishes your inherent wholeness. It’s not about reaching some ideal state of being; it’s about recognizing the strength within your healing, the resilience that stitches you back together when it feels like you are ripping at the seems….with every step forward. So hold onto this truth: You are whole, resilient, and infinitely capable of navigating this journey with courage and grace. . . . #painreprocessingtherapy #resilience #healingjourney #selfdiscovery #mindfulness #neuroplastichealing #prt #selfcompassion #chronicpain #mindbody #mindbodyconnection #mindbodymedicine #nervoussystem #somatictherapy #fightorflight #painrelief #mindfulness #chronicpainwarrior #healingtools #healingtips #healinginspiration #healingchronicpain #selfhealers #paineducation #sciencebased #neuroscience #brainscience

Came home from a long evening of running errands & I really just wanted to lay down. I have been going out without my cane & walker just being pure stubborn & because of that, my pain is horrendous.

What you eat matters. If you struggle with pain, avoid foods high in oxalates. These tiny crystals have been associated with kidney stones and dysfunction, musculoskeletal pain and arthritis, UTIs, chronic abdominal pain, brain fog, anaemia, and cold hands and feet, to name a few. Originally avoided back in the 1800’s (oxalate containing plants were actually harvested to create industrial bleach), it seems that modern practices and modern science have forgotten what these tiny crystals can do to our bodies. . . #oxalates #lowoxalatediet #chronicpainwarrior #healthyeating

My surgery went well ❤️‍🩹. Thank you to everyone for the well wishes and support! In case you didn’t know, I had surgery last week to remove growths in my uterus and all went well except for a few hours of pain at the end. I’ve always had a rough time waking up from anesthesia and after the pain meds wore off I was in excruciating pain, which the nurses kept referring to as “normal discomfort” 😒. Besides that though, the nurses were all so kind and caring and I felt so supported by my friends and family. Thank you to my mom and boyfriend for taking care of me ❤️. @crystalfuhrman @alexcarvs I am feeling great compared to the last surgery I had to remove endo growths. I was diagnosed with endometriosis 2 years ago and had an invasive surgery to remove a 10cm sized cyst and lesions throughout the pelvic area. This surgery I had last week was not directly related to my endometriosis but also there’s little research on the disease so who knows, maybe it is. This disease is chronic and I will deal with it for the rest of my life until they find a cure. My hope is to share my experience to help others feel less alone and to show that you can have a happy life despite the changes you have to make to accommodate for the chronic pain. #endometriosis #endobelly #endo #endowarrior #endosurgery #endosupport #endosucks #endosisters #womenshealth #chronicillness #chronicpain #chronicfatigue #chronicpainwarrior

I am so sorry that your body is hurting when it all wants to do is keep you alive, I am so sorry that you are grieving and that you are experiencing such immense loss and sadness right now. This is Body Grief. Fuck it’s so hard. If only our bodies cooperated. If only things were easier. But alas, here we are… And so I give you this, kindness, compassion, and grace, I will hold your sorrow for you today.

The way we think about our chronic pain can affect the intensity of the pain. Ruminating about chronic pain or feeling like it will never go away can exaggerate the chronic pain we experience. Shifting our attention to the present moment and what brings us meaning and joy can decrease chronic pain and lead to better pain management.

Do you ever feel like life is on fast-forward and you're just along for the ride? Do you try to manage your pain but keep finding yourself in situations that are impossible to pace? You're working, a mother, a caregiver, doing household tasks, managing deadlines, maybe all of these things and sometimes it's hard to make the to-do list smaller.

Focusing on pain and symptoms (talking about it, thinking about it, ruminating on it, googling it, etc) provides it FUEL. What we focus on tends to grow and magnify, and the flip side of this is what we focus on LESS, we also get less of. The more you focus on pain, the less you focus on activities that naturally relieve pain and release "happy chemicals" – creating a downward spiral. This isn't suggesting one should ignore pain or symptoms, as that can be virtually impossible. However, it IS possible to shift focus onto other things despite pain or symptoms being present. One way to do this is to simply invite your pain or symptoms to be along for the ride. Shifting your focus to things that you give you joy and gratitude will still give you the release of those happy chemicals, even with pain there. A good question to ask yourself is, "what do I want to feel MORE of?" and focus on that. Make it a priority as part of your healing. With consistency and time, it will grow and magnify as well. Your pain and symptoms' days are numbered when you make sure to prioritize joy, gratitude, and living your life as your primary focus. 💜 It's simply brain science. #chronicpain #chronicillness #healingtips #healingjourney #spooniesupport #mindbodymedicine #mindbodysoul #painrelief #chronicpainwarrior #spoonie #healinginspiration #mindbodysyndrome #healingtip #healingtools #selfhealer #curable #curableapp #migraine #fibromyalgia #backpain #pelvicpain #ibs #chronicfatiguesyndrome #brainscience #mindbodyconnection #mindbodywork #mindbody #tms #paineducation

One of the more frustrating pieces of endometriosis is the assumptions people who don’t have endometriosis make about our disease. I had so many family members and friends tell me how excited they were for my to finally be “cured” of my endometriosis and go back to normal life when I had my laparoscopy. It felt horrible having to tell everyone that none of that was true. My life will never 100% be back to the way it was prior to having stage 4 endometriosis and I’ll never be cured. I felt for a long time that I was “letting people down” with that answer. And I probably was, but I don’t care now like I used to. I’ve come to realize that most people will simply never understand or care enough to ask what this is actually like. #endometriosis #endometriosissurgery #endowarrior #adenomyosis #nocure #endomakeyourselfaware #endosisters #endometriosisawareness #chronicillness #chronicpain #chronicfatigue #chronicpainwarrior #disability #invisibleillness #dynamicdisability #advocacy #support #endobelly #endometriosissupport

Life has been a little weird lately. I’ve been having some personal family troubles going on, and the stress of it I think has been flaring my pain. My back has been hurting alot more at work. I just wish I could take all my family issues and fix them, but I can’t. I can be there to support my loved one as they now have to fight with more cancer, but I can’t take their pain away and that is driving me crazy. I can’t make things better. Took some time today to go on a walk with my girl, and been taking things slow at work as I navigate my emotions. That’s all I got for now. #ankylosingspondylitis #ankylosingspondylitisawareness #ankylosingspondylitiswarrior #arthritisawareness #arthritis #arthritiswarrior #arthritisrelief #rheumatoidarthritis #arthritispainrelief #chronicdisease #chronicpainwarrior #chronicpainawareness #chronicillnessbaddie #chronicdiseasewarrior #spoonie #spoonielife #spooniesupport #spooniewarrior #spooniefamily #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthwarrior
