Yes to working with a sensitive, skillful body wise prationner! have been addressing knee, feet, sciatic issues over the last few years. It's interesting the mention of skeletal joy. I learned once that pain is meant to process through bones and when it goes into muscle or other systems it causes problems.A PT taught me not to resist pain so much. Pain is a brain signal that can get stuck in the "on" position if I work on it too much. Easier said than done when we are highly sensitive. My mother had numerous knee surgeries and my dad was a long distance runner. My reactions to their mobility issues play a role in my resistance to pain and recovery. I am learning not to baby myself. Not to veer toward comfort, but instead welcome the complexity of it all. Thank you Monisha for your gorgeous reflection!
