Sasha Clements Instagram – Gratitude post✨Sometimes it really is 2 steps forward 10 steps back. March was that month for me. I was doing so much better but last month I relapsed. My body rapidly flared up with inflammation the same way it did 2 years ago. I’m not going to say there weren’t (daily) tears but I will say that I am grateful for this flare up. Without it, I wouldn’t be able to see how far I’ve come mentally and spiritually✨ I had tools and a map to follow and was able to lean on my practices. And of course, as the universe would have it, I booked an action packed role right in the middle of it all to remind me that I can overcome anything👊🏼With major rest, a change in treatment, visualization, and daily gentle movement, I’ve gotten it under control again🙏🏼 I need to express my boundless gratitude to my loved ones and husband. Our spouses often become our caregivers and don’t get the credit they deserve. Corbin did not let me lift a finger. On top of working insanely long days, he did everything for me. From meal prepping, cooking, cleaning, bills, taking care of the dog, helping me get dressed and even washing my hair. It’s hard not to feel like the world’s biggest burden but I know holding on to that feeling only slows down the healing. My mother in law, sisters, friends and health coaches all gave up their time to come over and help with laundry or cooking. Chronic illness is not fun but it’s also been the greatest gift of soul training. And an important reminder that your achievements, no matter how “small” should be celebrated. 🙏🏼💛
