how injury recovery *forever* changed how i see (and treat) my body

Описание: the hardest part of recovering from an injury isn’t always the physical pain, but it’s learning how to live in a body and routine you didn’t choose and you don’t recognize.

today, i’m sharing the emotional and mental side of injury recovery that we don’t talk about enough. over the past year, i’ve been recovering from injuries involving my head, neck, and back, and this journey has completely changed my relationship with my body, movement, and healing.

i talk about losing part of my identity around fitness and working out, the “always push through” mindset, feeling misunderstood, learning how to listen to my body, trusting the healing process, and finding new outlets.

if you’re dealing with injury recovery, chronic pain, burnout, body image changes, or feeling disconnected from your body overall, this video is for you.

healing isn’t linear. rest is not weakness. and your body is only ever trying to help heal and support you.

thank you for watching 🤍 if this resonated with you, i’d love to hear about your experience and thoughts in the comments.
