This Post prompted me to jump into my workout clothes and finally returned to the YMCA. I absolutely DID Not want to return on 12/31- it’s so cliche🤭🤣🤣🤣 but at the same time my body was craving the movement/connection. On my way out the door, I grabbed my ginger essential oil—. Never considering its intensity. I guess Ginger’s a powerful EO! I inhaled it in-route to the “Y” Wait, THE EMOTIONS, THE TEARS. I thought, What the heck is going on? The body knew, long before the mind. My mind-body connection have been in dissonance for months. Inhaling the ginger obviously unlocked something in me. Side note: Neck surgery(2007) and I’m a breast cancer 2011, rotator cuff (2018), back fusion-2024 survivor who’s been carrying life for others for years. Today, I’m no longer surviving, I’m moving again, I’m taking care of me and enjoying my practice. I had so much fun ❤️ at the YMCA. I didn’t push my body, I honored it. Thank you for your timely push to move again☺️😊☺️
