We have all heard about the importance of listening to our body, but what does that actually mean? How can we know what our body is telling us about our health and well-being? How about the way we age?
Listen to the full episode here: https://longeviq.com/the-power-of-listening-to-your-body-for-a-happy-healthy-long-life/
⁠❤️In today’s episode, we’re incredibly fortunate to have Dr. Chris Gilbert, MD PhD, a renowned physician specializing in holistic, integrative, and mind-body medicine, along with her husband, Dr. Eric Haseltine, PhD, an expert in neuroscience and psychology.
In our discussion, we’ll bring awareness to the importance of listening to our body sensations and accepting our full emotional range, along with practical tips that we can use to help start this process. As it turns out, this approach not only makes our lives happier and healthier but, not surprisingly, may also promote longevity.

So I've been using my crutch for a few days now, but the handle is so thick it keeps cramping up my hand.
So I've ordered this...
Tumblr media
It's being delivered by 8pm tonight, hopefully the thinner handle will ease the pain a bit.
This is one of the reasons I hate using it, but with how bad the pain has been lately and add on the fact that my hip has decided to give out on me, I don't have a choice.
I gotta admit the design is fugly! Maybe I'll decorate it myself when I'm bored 🤣🤷🏻‍♀️

So chronic pain is a impairment, how society responds to your chronic pain symptoms is the disability.
You can accommodate away the social aspect of having chronic pain but you can't accommodate aways the biology that can only be treated though medical treatment
This is because impairment and disability are not the same thing. Impairment is based on biology. Your body is different somehow therefore you have chronic pain.
Disability is social, its how people respond to the symptoms of having chronic pain. So people can learn to respond to symptoms better.
If a person with chronic pain is 100% accommodated they are no longer disabled but they are still impaired. You still have chronic pain you just don't have to deal with the social aspect of it anymore.
The medical model of disability wants to use medicine to deal with disability. So instead of telling kids to not bully autistic kid they try to create a wonder drug "fix" autism instead of holding bullies accountable for their hate crimes against autistics. At the end of day the medical model is not really about therapy or taking meds but about protecting able body and able minded privilege though the use of therapy, meds and medical treatment.

If you are struggling emotionally, your pain may be more difficult to deal with right now. Sometimes it is good to recognize that along with your emotional pain easing with time, your physical pain may ease a little along with it. (Or maybe it won't idk I'm just hoping mine will lmao.)

No Longer Remembered 11.20.23 “Broken Bread and Hearts”
Pain is an illusion, from time to time it passes And still an illusion can stop my heart Fill me with fright or delight, for its part Pain is absolute, a state of existence to pass And still I will ache and bemoan as I heal From my head to my battered, sprained heel Pain is like water, like wind how it moves And still it remains, stagnant with mosquitoes Coming and going, rocks me as it flows Pain is like fire, like earth full of weight And still it keeps scalding, heralding mistakes Each defeat, though is crushing, head-rushing Pain is a shadow, cast down by my light And still, I am the sun, burning bright as I live The greater I glow so the greater my shadow will give Pain is present, clinging like children, forgot And still though they cry They will grow old and die Pain is all I remember And still I forget How it felt to not have you here with me, before we had met

When it all gets too much
Tumblr media
Eddie Munson x Male reader
Trigger warning: Chornic pain, mentions of pain medication and it’s affects, shattered glass, anxiety and what it feels like to live with chronic pain
Note: I’m SO sorry this took me so long! Enjoy! I am also someone who suffers with chronic pain so this one hit home for me! 
Tumblr media
Living with chronic pain is never easy. Waking up everyday in pain and having to go to school or work acting as if nothing is wrong can be exhausting. That's is what you're dealing with right now. 
You woke up in too much pain to be able to move, calling for your parents who rushed into the room with concern all over their faces. Your father insisted you'd still go to school but your mother eventually won him over and let you stay at home for the day. 
Moving ever so slightly you picked up the phone next to your bed to call your job. Luckily your boss is someone with chronic pain as well so they weren't upset you were calling off for the day; they could hear the pain in your voice. 
Your parents brought in your cane and pain medication along with some water and snacks. They had to leave for work for the day and were making sure you had everything you needed before they left. You were so lucky to be able to have parents that understood your pain and were an aadvacate for you at doctor's offices.
The day dragged on so very slow that you'd thought someone had frozen time. Around roughly noon the phone next to your bed rang. Half asleep due to the pain medication you let it ring. The loud and annoying tone in your ears but you couldn't bring yourself out of the medicated haze you were in to reach over to grab the phone. Even if you were able to reach the phone, your speach wouldn't have been anything that was understandable. 
This is another thing you hated. 
Being so drugged up on pain medication on bad days that you couldn't move nor speak properly. Everything seemed to be a lucid dream or seem fake; the anxiety it gave was something that filled your chest and labored your breathes.
The room filled with silence once more allowing you to finally slip into the medicated slumber your body was fighting so hard against. 
Little did you know, while you slept the phone kept ringing. It kept ringing for roughly an hour before the house fell silent. The only sound that could be heard was the furnace roaring to life to warm the silent home in the chilly October air. 
The person on the other end of the phone was filled with panic. 
Eddit Munson. 
He knew you didn't miss school often and whenever you did, you would call to let him know in case he decided to skip class and hang out with you. 
Eddie's own anxieties were getting the best of him. He tried hard to focus in class but he just couldn't bring his anxiety riddled mind down out of all the terrible scarinos that could have happened to you; his boyfriend. 
So, against his better judgement he chose to skip the last class of the day. He ran out to his beaten up old van; said van roaring to life in the silent parking lot. 
Eddie drove well over the speed limit to get to your house. The autum leaves kicking up into the air behind his van as he drove; he was so concerned for your wellbeing that he didn't even bother putting a caset tape into the radio to listen to on the drive. 
When he finally pulled up to your house, he could see that your parents cars werent in the drive. 'They must be working" he muttered to himself as he jogged towards your front door. 
Knocking on the door proved effortless as he waited in baited breathes for the door to swing open to reveal the man he was in love with. Turning the doorknob also did nothing as the door was locked. 
Fumbling around with his keychain he pulled out the spare key your parents had given him in cases of emergency. The key slid into the lock perfectly, turning swiftly to unlock the door keeping him from his beloved. 
Rushing down the hallway to you room, Eddie stood outside your door for a moment to calm himself. But when he opened the door to your room, he didn't see you laying in bed. 
Taking a few steps inside to asses the room, Eddie noticed the bottles of pills on the nightstand and a half empty glass of water. 
It all clicked to him in that moment why you hadn't shown up for school; a bad pain day. 
"Y/n!" Eddie called out stepping back outside of your room. He began his search for you, looking in your parents room and the bathroom and coming up emptyhanded. 
"Eddie?" The long haired man froze in place as he listened. The call of his name was quiet but he heard it! "Y/n?" He went towards the voice as it responded a bit louder this time. 
Eddie's heart sank to the pit of his stomach when he found you. You were laying on the kitchen floor, a glass shattered a few feet from where you lay. 
"Y/n!" He rushed over to inspect your body to see if you had gotten any injuries from the glass. "What happened?" 
Sniffling you let Eddie pull you up into a sitting position while hissing in pain as he slowly straightened your knees out. 
"I just wanted fresh water..." Looking over at the mess you made but Eddie brought your face back to look at him gently. 
His face held nothing but love and compassion for you. 
"Hey, It's okay. Don't worry about it," Eddie's voice was calm and comforting. 
"Did you get hurt?" Shaking your head slowly while leaning into the hand Eddie was using to wipe your tears away you mutter "No," 
Nodding Eddie looked around for a moment before quickly grabbing a kitchen chair "I'm gonna help you up into the chair okay?" Nodding you brace yourself for the pain to come.
Struggling and grunting you eventually got settled into the chair and watched as Eddie carefully cleaned up the shattered water glass. He then reached into the cabinet to grab a plastic glass and filled it with water. 
"I'm gonna go put this in your room then I'll bring you there okay?" Eddie wasn't gone for long. As quickly as he left to place the cool glass of water in your room, he was back to wrap his arms around you and lift you swiftly. 
His straingth always did shock you. Eddie Munson looks like a scwarny little man who couldn't lift over 20 pounds, but he always somehow ended up lifting you effortlessly. 
"There ya go.." Eddie mumbles laying you gently on your mattress and covering you with your comforter. He then stripped himself of his jacket and pants, leaving him in his boxers and t-shirt, and climbed into bed with you. 
He slowly pulled you close, burrying your head into his chest as he played with your hair. 
"You should've called me," Nodding slowly at his words you look up at him. 
"I didn't want to worry you," Laughing softly Eddie rolled his eyes. "You worried me even more by not calling. You know I'll take care of you when things get too much baby, don't you?" Nodding once more you smile softly at his words as they warm your heart. 
"I know," You quickly yet gently peck his lips before snuggling in deeper to his chest. 
"Take a nap and when you wake up I'll give you a good massage okay?" Sleep was already coming over you fast. You nod before giving him one last kiss. 
"I love you Eddie," 
"I love you too Y/n,"

feel free to leave this private, and i don't know how many places you've posted the promo image, but there is a typo that was overlooked in editting and just wanted to make you aware in case you needed to revise the pic. Chronic is mistyped as chornic at the bottom of the image.
Ahaha, that is my bad. I had fixed it this morning before posting everywhere, but I forgot that that does literally nothing for the images in posts you've already queued ;_;
Anyway, if you're seeing my tumblr post or my newsletter, Justin now has chornic pain, which is pain that's a real chore to deal with.

have A BUNCH babey
break, pain and hate for waxy
fear and desire for hunter
hunt for pryman
and skin for relonyl!
(answer as much as you want, that's just a lot hhhh)
thanks!! smooch
Waexie
break: What would cause your OC to break down completely? What do they look like when that happens? Has anyone ever seen them at their lowest?
overworking does it for sure, even though hes a chornic overworker. if taken to the brink of his strength and not given a moment to rest, he will drive himself into the grave really quick. burnt out, he is a lot more passive, unfocused, uncaring and generally more abrasive than he usually is (which is not at all). naohiro, his husband, probably saw him at his lowest, back when pact was taking one of the last stands against mordremoth. it was a tough time for him.
pain: What's the worst pain your OC has ever felt? Do they have a high pain tolerance?
i think at some point he almost lost his hands and almost burnt face when experimenting with machinery. since then he's been diligent with safety - generally speaking though, his pain tolerance is medium. just average.
hate: What does your OC hate? Why? How do they act towards the object of their hatred?
waexie hates unserious, unfocused and unskilled (esp if they are still full of themselves) people. in everything he cherishes and prioritizes practicality. so when that standart is not met, he is pretty pissed. but he doesn't show it that much (or some just might not catch his eye twitch): he just gives those people more of a workload instead, trying to drive them to madness back. he is pretty neutral towards such people otherwise, especially if they are under his command.
The Solemn Hunter
fear answered here
desire: What's one thing your OC wants more than anything in the world? Are they open with that desire? Why or why not? What would they do to fulfill it?
i don't think he wants much. there isn't a goal in his mind right now, he just exists, taking it day by day, trying to reach some sort of inner peace in the process.
The Pryman
hunt: Who or what is your OC hunted by? A person, a feeling, a past mistake? Is your OC able to let their guard down, or are they constantly alert?
pryman is hunted by his past mistakes and violence. he is ashamed of a younger version of himself and tries his best to forget about it. he can let his guard down, but i guess hes a guardian for a reason lmao!!!! so most of the time he is chill, but aware of his surroundings. old ways.
Relonyl
skin: How comfortable is your OC in their skin? Do they grapple with anything that lives inside them—a beast, a curse, a failure, a monster? How do they face the smallest, weakest, most horrible version of themself? Are they able to acknowledge it at all?
so uncomfortable. relonyl is afraid of himself, of everything he does and did. never sure about any thought he has, always thinking it's not his. his body is just a shell for him, a shell to take hits. this beast - of being born of nightmare, haunts him a lot, making him a scared little child. he is too afraid to face it, and if he has to - he will probably run.

“So this whole time Letizia has Morton's neuroma and other chornic pain in her feet, I couldn't honestly tell because she often walks so effortlessly in heels. I'm not surprised though because imaging squeezing your feet in these pointd toe pumps she favours, that has to hurt!” - Submitted by Anonymous

Methinks methinks WRH would be absolutely livid when he learns of the staircase incident. I often like to write JGY with very bad chornic pain (right hip and right shoulder bc that's where he falls first in the donghua). We know in-universe most people know what happened but how shut off and focused on harnessing power is WRH, really? Like he's the same age as the other parents and yet an absolute cultivational beast so he probably spends a lot of his time cultivating, so is it maybe not completely unreasonable to think he's not privy to idle gossip (?)
In the Wen-furen au, the scene I have stuck in my head the most is JGS asking how MY is behaving and WRH answering he's doing fine, and then saying he feels insulted that JGS thinks such a talented person would be fitting to be a bedslave, followed up by telling MY to torture a person right in front of the entire jianghu (as entertainment lol)
And atp WRH throws JGS into a side room and breaks him into tiny pieces with awfully powerfull palm strikes and maybe squashes his dick for giving MY to him as a sex slave
MY with chronic pain is something that ties in so well with his low level of cultivation! Also the fact that WRH disregards the rules of society could easily mean that he sees it a beneath him, so why should he even concern himself with mundane gossip?? Unless it's a truly important piece of news, what the other sects do or say mean nothing to him, he has much more important things to focus on in his daily life lol
Oh, I'm all in for WRH proudly displaying what his Yao'er can do with JGS right there to see it. Not only so he can see what a wonderful asset he gave away, but also what could happen to him if he was ever to be at MY's mercy XD
But I'm perfectly fine with WRH doing the honors with that, he'd be insulted enough for both of them: JGS putting such a wonderful boy in that position, and also thinking WRH would be on his level and do with his "gift" what JGS would surely do if being given a pretty little thing.

Disability pride month?? (Tfp adition)
Miko has EDS (Ehlers-Danlos syndrome) she is very flexible, but has chornic pain bc of it. She wears braces to help her. She doesn't run a lot for this reason, but tries to stay active as she is constantly full of energy
She also has adhd!
Jackson APD (auditory processing disorder) and uses subtitles for about everything, he hates working drive through bc he has no idea what people are saying half the time.
Rafael is autistic and has CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) he is sensitive to loud noises and is easily stressed. He is frequently fatigued and gets ill easily, he has chronic pain in his legs.
When his chronic pain is bad he uses a cane, and sometimes he uses a wheelchair.
---
Bulkhead is partially deaf, this is the reason he likes Miko. He doesn't mind her being loud and he finds her easier to understand bc she is not afraid to yell.
Wheeljack is dyslexic and has adhd! He struggles very much reading the human language and tries to avoid it when possible. His adhd just worsens it, so he uses a screen reader.
Ultra magnus has a prosthetic hand (this is canon xkxjxkxm) he is also autistic
Optimus prime and Ratchet both have chronic pain, Ratchet's chronic pain is a lot more severe which is partially why he chooses to stay a medic and focus less on battle. Op and ratch are both on the spectrum
Bumble bee and Smoke screen have RLS (restless leg syndrome) which is why they are both constantly moving around and rather active. They both have adhd as well and so they like infodumping and being able to do things
---
Soundwave is autistic and that is part of the reason he is nonverbal. He is very obervsant, but prefers to be alone. He hyperfixates on technology and is very particular with how things are
Predaking is mostly deaf which is one of the reasons he doesn't talk a lot, he knows many forms of sign language and even tought himself forms of earth sign language just incase.
Knockout also has EDS!! Its the reason his parts are fragile and why he stays mainly as a medic. He is easier to injure and constantly hurts himself. He is very flexible as well, but more embaressed about his disability than prideful :(
---
(Oc bonus)
Sightfree like his name suggests he is fully blind! He can scan and take pictures of things so he can see them in his system. He also can read heat signatures which allow him to drive safely. He relies heavily on screen readers and loves audio books. Hes also can read braile.
Beep is autistic and has adhd! They get excited easily and like to infodump. They are scared easily and tend to hide
