Woweee @BloodMoon .... this is what I was hoping for!! tiphata There are loads there I can get cracking on.. some I might edit a wee bit! A very big thanks to you, and keep them coming if you think of any more!

Hello all! On the back of conversations in this thread around kickstarting the day with an injection of positivity, I started visually compiling some bumper sticker style mantras/affirmations I look at first thing in the morning. I have found them so effective that I carry the notebook with me...

Thank you so much everyone - lot's of really good advice there tiphata One thing I've started doing in the past couple days is bookending the day by feeling into a moment of gratitude. I saw a suggestion online to use a little stone as a reminder to practice gratitude so I've been using a...

Hey all! I suspect this comes up a lot but after initially very good progress on my TMS journey am having serious setbacks after breaking my toe nearly three weeks ago. I haven't been able to exercise like I had been and I know this is underpinning the strong emotions I've been feeling the...

Haha @JanAtheCPA - and that was my trimmed-down version!! :smuggrin: But thank you so much for your work maintaining the platform - much appreciation and respecttiphata @Diana-M Thanks as always for the really helpful reply. I'll definitely dig into more trauma related resources. I've only now...

Thanks so much again @Diana-M - :) I hadn't seen that search engine which is brilliant. I had searched for endo but through the search engine turned up a good few more threads. These two articles have been super helpful in bolstering my 'evidence' repository...

TLDR: Would love to be pointed toward exercise success stories for things like GERD, SIBO, Endometriosis to help with more internal tissues (as opposed to back/shoulders etc), cyclical and food-based issues --------------------- I'm age 44 and in hindsight I've had various TMS maladies of...

This journey is definitely a hotbed of overthinking triggers, however in this instance feeling unwarranted ill-will towards a stranger is definitely something I would like to change, so I'm happy to have a better understanding of what's going on there so I can mentally self-soothe without...

Thank you @Diana-M - and @Cactusflower - oh how you see me :) and @Diana-M - definitely not furious! I know self-love is a huge part and one of the first things I did was replace my phone screen wallpaper with a picture of 2 year old me : ) But yes, I have definitely been overdoing it, however...
