Consulting with the experts for your health – including yourself!
When facing an illness or injury, or just taking care of your overall health, knowledgeable experts such as doctors, nurses, physical therapists, dietitians, chiropractors, yoga instructors, etc might be involved in our care. But another expert who can’t be forgotten is YOU! Only you know how it feels to be you.
Periomenopause, aging gracefully, and my wonky spine
This week was full tilt boogie perimenopause sensations, and then I sprained my back at work (#rnlife) lifting a patient. My dear friend and senior Iyengar yoga teacher Koren reminded me how important it is to care for my curved and aging spine. Even a touch of scoliosis can take its toll as we age.
Accepting and acknowledging our age is humbling, and if we want to feel youthful and do all the things we want to do in our lives, then self-care is critical.
