For the woman tired of flares, searching for answers, and wondering what her body will do next.
A simple place to begin when persistent pain + symptoms have you checking, searching, bracing, and second-guessing your body.
01.
NOTICE WHAT HAPPENS AFTER A SYMPTOM: See how one sensation can quickly turn into checking, worrying, searching, or changing your plans.
02.
CATCH THE SEARCH FOR CERTAINTY: Notice when you’re trying to explain every symptom, predict the next flare, or control what happens next.
03.
GIVE YOUR ATTENTION SOMEWHERE ELSE TO GO: Practice widening your focus when your body starts becoming the loudest thing in the room.
04.
LET ONE CHOICE BE YOURS: Try one doable step where what you want gets a little more say than what your symptoms might do.
This is not another protocol to perfect. It’s a practical place to begin noticing what happens around symptoms and trying something different.
I created this guide because I know what it feels like when your body takes up far more of your attention and your life than anyone else can see.
For 23 years, I lived with persistent pain + physical symptoms, from pelvic pain and digestive issues to back and hip pain, numbness, tinnitus, food sensitivities, and symptoms that seemed to change without making much sense. I tried the appointments, treatments, diets, supplements, procedures, and years of searching for answers.
What changed for me was beginning to understand the patterns that had developed around years of symptoms. The checking. Bracing. Monitoring. Avoiding. Trying to figure out every sensation the second it appeared.
That is why I created this starter guide. To help you begin noticing what may be happening around your symptoms too, and give you a different place to start.
Persistent pain + symptoms can leave you checking your body, second-guessing decisions, and searching for answers all day.
This free starter guide helps you notice those patterns and gives you a few simple ways to begin responding differently.
