Last Monday I had back surgery and let me tell you what and experience that was or is still. I know that your back is part of your core of your body but really how much you use your back you do not realize until you can not use it. I am thankful that all went well and now am just dealing with pain from the cutting. But I will say that this class helped me get through the first days. I never would have thought of using breathing or meditation to get me in and out of bed. A positive attitiude is keeping me going every day and making it better for me and my family.
i have come to realize i am in conotrole of my pain and what I can and can not deal with, a positive attitude is making my recovery that much better.
Oh Melissa!
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to you. What a great way to use these meditation exercises to help you with controlling how you respond to the pain, as well as everything that goes along with being laid up. You have been through such an invasive surgery, I wish you a speedy recovery. In fact, I will think of you in my meditation tonight and focus on the healing of your back. What the heck, it can't hurt...
Warm wishes,
