Invisible Illness; Everyone Has One
This is about being kind to everyone you meet no matter what.
I would guess everyone walking around on the planet is dealing with some kind of situation or illness (physical, mental or emotional) that’s invisible to most people. When are we going to be nicer to each other?
When are we going to make love the default? When will we stop being assholes when we have no idea what someone else is going through? When will the gossip stop?
Probably never. I’m trying anyway.
Because words heal when you’re brave enough to share them. And today I’m taking a few minutes to talk about what you don’t see in people, so that the next time you’re feeling an urge to judge, you just stop that and practice compassion instead.
Invisible Physical Illness
Ever have a doctor do all the tests and look at you and say, “Nothing’s wrong with you. This is in your head.”
I’ve heard that report from so many of my clients. It’s sad. See, there’s this invisible-to-tests tissue in your body called fascia that when dehydrated and restricted can cause up to 2000 pounds of pressure per square inch on nerve sensitive structures in your body.
