Breaking Free: How I Transformed Pain into Strength

At the end of last year I was in a horrible car accident where my dream car was written off and I was taken to hospital with whip lash, back injury and head injuries as my face hit the air bag and bruised it.
.
Looking back I was in shock for up to two months. I still suffer from flash backs, neck pain, headaches and migraines and get startled easily and wake up in the night more.
.
But I’ve taken big action to heal and feel so grateful to be able to lift weights and move my body especially my back and neck.
.
For a couple of months I was walking around like an old lady staying at home all the time holding a hot water bottle for comfort. I thought “perhaps this is my life now”.
.
I had the belief that my lower back was dodgy and to keep safe and stay in my cocoon. But luckily I chose to take action and push myself to leave my home and ride a scooter and start at the gym. With the help of professionals I’ve pushed myself to do weights for the first time and my body is responding very well.
.

My body is telling me it loves weights!!
.
Our body stores the traumas we have been through so it’s essential we get support both through the mind but also through the body to help release all the shit we have been through.
.
I still have anxiety when in a car but I’m working through it and doing various therapist to help my body release the traumas.
.
Healing is possible, it takes action and a willingness to heal. Sometimes we are not willing to heal because we are getting attention, sympathy or feeling safe to stay stuck in our stuff. Can you relate?
