Happy New Year!
I love new beginnings, don’t you? Just like morning, its fresh and new and full of possibility.
I’ve been a little inconsistent this past year with my blogs and social media and I wanted to let you know where I’ve been. As many of you know, this past year was a year of trials for us beginning with a house fire Jan.1st, being displaced almost a year, severe pain and disability for me with 8 months of lost work, and finishing up with a move home and a mysterious finger aliment needing surgery! But that is not what I want to focus on. I would never replace what I’ve learned through all of these trials! God is so good and He is so faithful to sustain us and grow our faith (“…which is of greater worth than gold…”) The biggest thing He taught me was from this verse:
“A merry heart does good like medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.” Prov.17:22
I’ll be honest, I was feeling pretty sorry for myself for a bit, really focusing on the pain and stress of lost income when He hit me with this verse!
It was as if He said, “Carol, this is your medicine, a merry, thankful heart!” And everything changed. Some people call this MINDSET. And it is everything.
So, this year, let this be a new year with a new mindset! Let this be the year you don’t ignore the back or neck pain nagging at you. Let it be the year to put into practice some self-care to relieve that pain, get stronger, decrease the stress and anxiety and really sleep. Let it be the year of good, healthy, whole -food nutrition so you can lose those extra pounds holding you back.
I know what it’s like to feel that way. I was in your shoes at one point, even though I’m a Physical Therapist! So here we are at the beginning of a brand-new year. Where should you start? I suggest two simple things. First, start working on that mindset with writing down three things you are thankful for everyday and asking God to fill you with His joy as you read the Bible, even a few verses every day. It will change your life.
Second, download my free guide: “The Quick Start Guide to Relieving Back Pain” here:
Its tough to do anything when you’re in pain, including take care of the kids and yourself, so make this a priority now. Pain is the body’s “check engine” light! It is trying to tell you something is not right. If you listen and change things, it will improve. The longer this is put off, the harder it is to get back to being pain free.
