My Mini Milestone

I'm celebrating a mini milestone. With a bit of encouragement for anyone else.

I've been working on improving my posture. Posture came out as one of a whole bunch of linked self improvement things, related to dealing with my poor self esteem. Something I needed to work on to undo the consequences of trying to shrink my existence, I discovered first physio and then pilates.

Today I found a new sitting position in the car. And all the things that have never worked for me, like being able to reach the steering wheel, suddenly fell into place. It felt a huge metaphor for all the mental health work I have been doing - everything is beginning to click together to make something different.

Sometimes, doing the exercises week after week I know I wonder if it is worth it. Well, today I say it is.

Thanks. I've only recently discovered that positivity is contagious. So it's very special to me when I cause it to happen.

Double reward for me!

Glad to hear that! Having bad posture can make life so much harder and is bad for your health too! This is a great milestone and you should definitely congratulate yourself :).
