Resilience While Navigating Chronic Pain and Migraines

Resilience - noun.
The process and outcome of successfully adapting to difficult or challenging life experiences, especially through mental, emotional, and behavioral flexibility and adjustment to external and internal demands. (American Psychological Association)

I took a moment in the quiet, on this rainy Sunday morning, reflecting on the fact that it had been over 3 months since I had hiked following my most recent two back procedures.

The word that came to me was resilience.

I smiled, as I breathed in the smell of evergreens looking over these beautiful mountains, thrilled to be back in my 4-wheel drive trail shoes.

When navigating chronic pain and migraines, I believe there are key factors to resilience…

• Awareness - Understanding the language of your body is the foundation to your wellBEING.

• Mindset - How we talk to ourself and the constant mental chatter matters!

• Self care - Holistic self care and how you nurture yourself is an inside job.

• Support - Uncovering what support your body needs is vital to thrive.

• And the ability to see that your chronic pain and migraines are not fixed or permanent - Lean into what you do have control over and the empowered choices you can make to transform your health while decreasing your migraines and chronic pain.
  

For over 23 years, as a Certified BodyMind Coach and Licensed Massage Therapist, I have specialized in helping people navigate migraines and chronic pain.

This has been my passion both professionally and personally since I have my own story with injuries, trauma, and chronic pain from an adventurous career as a professional jockey and athlete.

Empowered Resilience, is my 12 week -one on one signature coaching program designed to transform your wellBEING and reclaim your life from chronic pain and migraines.

I have watched how my BodyMind coaching clients have gone from frustration and fear of not being in control of their migraines and pain - to having the tools and confidence to address their stress, pain, and support their body needs for lasting change so that they can trust their body again.

Create ease and freedom in your body and life!
