Day 13 Gratitude

I'm grateful for movement breaks and intense massage.  I had sort of an emotional and spiritual breakthrough during and after my massage/acupuncture appointment on Thursday.  I gained insight into the necessity of self-forgiveness and an awakening of specific changes I need to make N-O-W.   
I've been taking more and more movement breaks during the day, upping my exercise time totals for each day!  Today, I took four plus a walk in the lovely sunshine with the dog, totalling nearly an hour!  I'll be incorporating different strenght exerises into each session, to get a full body workout throughout the day!  I'm grateful for the inspiration, dedication, and discipline to do this!  I am determined to get strong again, and I am grateful for my determination.  I'm grateful my body is well enough that I can re-train and re-condition it.  I can do it!
The insights I gain physically and emotionally are terribly difficult, but I am still grateful for them.  I know in each session of massage/acupuncture more will come, and progress will be made.  It's painful to heal and re-form and recalibrate my body, mind, and heart, but at least I have the opportunity to do so. For that, I am very, very, very grateful!

I can do it!

Grateful for this sweet buddy, even when she's begging to get on the couch!
