It's damaging to be constantly on the hook to explain why we aren't getting better right away. And it's demoralizing to be thought of as "not trying hard enough."

...no one has thought as much about how we can get relief as we have. No one is more attuned to what might make life less miserable. No one has been more possessed to find promising treatments than we are...

What we really want is to be listened to and, most of all, to be understood.

from Why Chronic Pain Sufferers Hate Yoga by Randall H. Duckett (Medium)

Chronic pain is. Such an unfathomable concept to people. I’ll be like “hey I’m gonna rest for an hour or two because I reached my limit on walking/exercise and I’m in a lot of pain right now” and then a family member or friend will say”actually this article says that’s really bad for you” and the article in question is always something like “Health Tips for the Average Normal Healthy Person by Mike Ablebodied”

Not to mention finding resources like. I’ll find resources by disabled people and it’ll be like “hey exercise is important, but find a way to workout that uses less spoons, and if you’re having a high pain day then take a break, and here’s some exercises you can do from bed”. And then I’ll find some able bodied persons fibromyalgia tips and it’s like “if you don’t walk sixteen miles every day your muscles will atrophy and you’ll die also your mobility aid makes you weak”. Guess which one of those sources I trust more. And now guess which sources the people around me always seem to find and listen to. Are these kinds of things common or am I just unlucky? Does anyone else have this problem?

Is there/could there be a fic where

1) Roy takes the yoga mums to the charity gala after he’s been promoted to gaffer and just tells them it’s a work thing that he thinks they’ll have fun at and he buys them all glorious outfits and gets them a limo, the whole nine, and all they have to do is bid on Jamie for him.

2) Roy asks Jamie “do you trust me? Then have fun. Peacock. Pull an audible and tell the bidder they can pick the date. Enjoy your prick self.”

3) the mums buy his date and tell him he needs to wear clothes he can be *flexible* in and roy just tells Jamie to go with it.

4) date is just regular yoga night with Roy and the mums with wine (that Roy lets Jamie have TWO glasses of) and reality tv show watching and boy problem bitching and he has an absolute blast.

5) the mums “misunderstand” and make comments about how cute a couple they’d make all night.

Either pre-relationship or getting together.

"And the only one who was really adept at yoga was McCartney. He would do a handstand or a headstand and he had the most lithe body you've ever seen — and back then he was in his late '60s — and he was so fit."

[ekamyogashala]

We began our November batch with a beautiful fire ceremony to welcome our new trainees and set positive intentions for the weeks ahead.

The sacred fire symbolize purification, intention, and renewal — a reminder to let go of what no longer serves us and open our hearts to growth and learning.

Here’s to a month of deep connection, self-discovery, and shared wisdom. Welcome to the Ekam family ✨❤️ . . . . . . . . . . . .

You mentioned that all the Wayne's post thirst traps. And that Damian's are like Victorian women showing some racy ankle. What does he consider a thirst trap then.

Have you ever seen a man in a dark turtle neck sweater.

[but-the-library-of-alexandria]

look I'm not a proponent of organised religion but I think it is important to remember that as we (as individuals and as a society) move away from mass religion, there are roles that religion has played in our lives that are important need replacing.

no need for prayer, but it's important to find time in your day for reflection or meditation. no need to confess your sins, but you do need someone you can admit your problems and secrets to. no need for scripture or doctrine, but it will make your life easier if you have a (flexible!) set of personal values to live by. no need to go to church and meet with the congregation, but having a (preferably local) community and a block of time every week or so reserved for gatherings will keep you sane and grounded.

so many treatments offered up for mental health - from mindfulness to talking therapy to gratitude journals to Groups of all kinds - are intended to fulfil the higher emotional needs that religion (for all its MANY flaws and often in a VERY fucked up and unhealthy way) covered. I'm not saying be religious, but I AM saying that if you're not, it might be a bad idea to let that niche get filled in with more work and media consumption instead of self-reflection and community connection. Not believing in a higher power doesn't exempt you from these needs.
