I learned something amazing today.
I had my post back surgery check-up this morning… and everything looks great. After 8 months, the pain is completely gone and my back feels strong again.
My only complaint has been this weird prickly sensation on the top of my foot and big toe, like ants running under my skin. It drives me crazy, especially when I’m trying to sleep (or meditate).
But when I told the doctor, he got genuinely excited. He said that although the sensation is verrrry disturbing, it’s actually great news. It means my nerves are regenerating and growing back.
And then he said something I loved:
“When the nervous system repairs itself, it’s loud.”
For someone like me, always talking about the nervous system and its power to heal, in class, that really felt like a message.
The body is truly amazing. 😍❤️
