Exercise and baths

What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being?

For me, maintaining my health and well-being is the same as managing my chronic pain conditions. I know from experience how bad it can be living day to day with level 10 pain. No respite. No relief. No real help from the medical system. That experience is deviating to your well-being. And every flare up. Every day when the pain or fatigue is higher than normal, flashes you back to that absolute worst pain. It hits you with all the same negative feelings. The same crushing feelings that this is your life. There’s no escape.

My pain management is daily exercise, weight maintenance, and regular baths. Is it a perfect system, no. It takes a lot of work and motivation. I’m still in pain everyday. I still get bad flare ups, and low moments. But the comparison is like night and day.

I’m grateful this works for me. I know not everyone with chronic conditions has found their best management solution.

Peace and love to all.
