My Body Hurts

All over, every day. Some days just a little, some days (like today) a lot. Long-term stress and not properly caring for oneself can do this to a body. My nervous system is torn and tattered and just beginning to heal.  I finally have the time and space to let myself feel the pain. I believe that's the first part of the healing process. It's worst at the beginning. Slowly and steadily it will improve. Every time I honor my physical being by taking better care of it I give it permission to heal. Each little step (dancing for 20 minutes, cutting back on caffeine, eating more vegetables) is one step closer to being rid of this constant pain.
