Backyard Blocking!

Last week I was inspired by my friend Amanda Amanda Hadaway when she posted a silly video of her making the classic "fishy face". Cheeks sucked in, cute little lip wiggle. And I realized something tragic. I can't do it!

I used to do it. When my kids were little the fishy face was a source of great entertainment and fun moments with my children full of laughter. Over the years, my face has changed. Fascia adhesions, time, gravity, the effects of chronic pain and stress have all contributed to frozen fascia that doesn't allow full function and definitely doesn't accommodate fishy faces.

On the surface it's kind of like an "Oh, well, I guess that comes with aging" sentiment, but I know better than that! As I have studied and used Block Therapy on the fascia in my face and all over my body (because the face doesn't exist in isolation but is connected to the rest of you!) my face is shifting, improving, finding better alignment and better health in the tissues.

However, as we do this work we don't want to lose sight of what else can be gained by consistent work on our fascia. Those little things that make life enjoyable matter so much. The moments you might not realize have slipped away and your body no longer allows.

My goal for the next 30 days is to regain the fishy face! Think about what you haven't done in a long time. Can you still do it or is your bound, tight, frozen fascia holding you back?

Being in nature resets your nervous system. From my backyard to you, allow yourself this 30-second reset.

Put one hand on your upper chest and one hand on your belly. Listen to the babbling brook. Inhale through your nose and notice if your hand or your belly moves. Just notice. Hear the wind blowing around you. Exhale fully through your nose. A little frog croaks in the background, hopping his way to the nearby pond. Inhale again, focusing on keeping the hand on your chest still. Breathing from the upper chest is the breath of stress and tension. Exhale through your nose and let the sound of trickling water calm you. One more inhale and exhale feeling the belly rise and then fall as you inhale for a count of 4 and exhale for a count of 6. Hold your breath for a moment.
That's your 30-second reset.

What is Block Therapy? I'm glad you asked. Why is it perfect for those with chronic health conditions? Excellent question. Thanks Amanda for reminding me of this excellent 1-minute summary of why this is my therapy of choice!

Welcome to Block Therapy! This is a fascia based system that teache...

I've always been a bit of a closet rebel. I never wanted to go along with the status quo just because it was there. I always found myself questioning more than was "proper", tweaking the rules so they felt better in my skin. I wasn't a kid who got into trouble or obviously bucked authority, but I truly embraced the idea of thinking outside the box and coloring outside the lines.

And now that comes full circle because I've realized when it comes to my health and managing multiple complex conditions, all those secret rebellious qualities I honed growing up are serving me well. It's not that I don't listen to experts, because I am a research queen! I'm a total facts and nerd girl who soaks up every bit of information put out there. However, I am also willing and eager to determine if what I'm being told actually works in my real life and my real body. If it does, then I fully embrace it. If it doesn't, then I'm perfectly willing and equally eager to set it aside.

It's true that you can respect an expert opinion and respect the choices that are working for others, but also completely OWN your unique journey and make decisions for yourself that fall outside the guidelines and choices others make. It's okay for you to try new things, to test different theories and therapies and options. It's alright for you to listen to your own body and learn what it needs. It's acceptable if you forge your own path and your protocol is unique to you and no one else as long as you're well-informed and continue to have a curious mind and strive to learn and do what's best for you.

With chronic conditions we are often overwhelmed. If you feel like you're sinking under hours and hours of self-care, if you're doing so many things because you were told but aren't sure they're working or aren't right for you, maybe it's time to be a rebel, take a minute to breathe and regroup, and figure out your next best steps!

There are so many things out there about vibration plates these days. There's only ONE girl I trust too give accurate information based on over two decades of experience with every plate on the market and every condition you can imagine. You know what is equally important to me? Debby invests in people. She listens. She hears what people say and becomes a student of the very people she seeks to help. When is the last time a professional actually took time to listen to feedback and personal experience and then worked to create something that actually worked for your specific situation? So, yes, every single time I will send you to Debby, both for her years of expertise and her heart. It's a winning combination. She also offers personal training and coaching at a ridiculously low rate, so if you are stuck or just starting with a chronic condition, or need to bump your whole body vibration to the next level you can't go wrong. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/19LfyCTiS9/

One of my frustrations as I've walked this health journey with multiple chronic conditions like 's has been the toll seeking treatment has taken. It's not just a financial challenge, but the physical challenges to go seek help while in pain, to try and withstand treatments that often are more painful than the pain they're supposed to alleviate. There are also the emotional and mental overwhelms when professionals don't believe you, when you have to explain and re-explain at every appointment, when you leave another office frustrated and without answers or embarrassed and ashamed...again.

Many of these challenges were addressed when I found Block Therapy. Besides the fact that I have healed in ways I never thought possible, escaping that very real cycle of finding answers is one of the reasons I want to share this with others who find themselves in a world of pain and just want to change their bodies and need a rest for their hearts and minds.

If the points on this graphic resonate with you, there is hope for you too. Get in touch. Start feeling relief.

It's not instant. It's not magic. It's you, consistenly making a positive impact on your own body to get to a better place.
