Physio Fix

What are you doing for your body?
Are your fuelling it well and often? Are you hydrating it? Are you brushing your teeth enough? Are you moving your body?

Perspective... even with an injury there is generally always something that you can do for exercise- you may just need to modify it.

How good does a comeback feel! Makes you forget how bad the setback was.

It isn't easy. The road to recovery is always longer than we want, slower than we want and sometimes harder than we want. But like some of our previous posts- forward is forward. The struggle is just a part of this journey.

Are you taking your daily medication? It only needs to be 30minutes a day. Set some time up to go for a brisk walk or look into some of the in person or online classes. There are so many options now.

Nature is meant to be enjoyed! So get out and enjoy it!
Make the most of the change of season- go and explore your local park, you local beach, your local streets. Auckland is filled with hidden gems! Yo ujust have to find them.

You may not notice but you are closer to your rehab goal than you were yesterday.

Focus on small milestones- less pain with movement, ability to do normal day to day tasks easier. You may not be 100% but you are getting better each day.

This one is a similar message to some of our previous posts.

Bodies are often good at giving you hints that something isn't quite right. Might be that slight bit of stiffness or tightness. Might be that slight headache coming on. Might be a little bit of dizziness.

Focus on the whispers...Don't let it scream at you.

Glow sticks- break them and then they shine.

Sometimes we need to have the break to fully shine. This is ok. Sometimes things we do in the session may trigger an emotional break or release. This is ok- this is normal. These can often be blocks that stop or slow progress. If this happens- acnowledge it, work through or process it and then shine.

Surround yourself with people that inspire you. This makes you the best version of you and you just never know who you might be inspiring today, tomorrow or in the future.

Don't compare your injury or rehabilitation journey to someone else. Every person in unique and therefore everyones injuries are unique, their rehabilitation plans are unique.

Focus on moving forward. Forward is forward.

Another thing I wish I had taken more seriously when I was younger.

You only get one body and we can currently only replace a few small components. Take care of it. Get any issue and ni**le looked at ASAP. Your body will thank you for it in the long run.
