Most people don’t even realize it until they’re already deep in it. I used to chalk up my restlessness and constant overthinking to just being a “worrier.” But after a few honest conversations with a therapist and some brutal self-reflection, I realized a lot of my anxiety had roots way deeper than I expected —…
Ever tried to stretch your back, but no matter how many yoga poses you hold, the tension just won’t melt away? I’ve been there too. There was a stretch of months where I’d roll out of bed feeling like my spine had aged 40 years overnight. And despite seeing physical therapists, doing all the “right”…
If you’ve ever dealt with lower back pain, you already know it can be a massive disruptor. I remember waking up one morning and couldn’t even tie my shoelaces. My back had just had enough. I wasn’t lifting anything weird or doing some wild CrossFit challenge — just life being life. I tried stretches, ice…
You know, there was a time I couldn’t even sit for 20 minutes without that deep, gnawing ache crawling up my spine. I’d tried every stretch in the book, chased down specialists, and even briefly flirted with the idea of acupuncture (which, to be honest, kinda worked).

Let’s be real for a moment—if you’ve ever had a migraine, you already know it’s not just a “bad headache.” It can wipe out your whole day or even week. As someone who has wrestled with migraines for years, I’ve tried it all—from meds that left me groggy to meditations that never really stuck. But…
Back pain used to rule my life. Morning stiffness, nagging aches after long Zoom calls, and that ever-present dull throb during traffic jams — I thought it was just part of being in my 30s. But everything changed the moment I stopped trying to fight the pain and started to really listen to it. Sounds…
Back pain and I go way back—literally. After years of trying different treatments, endless Googling, and bouncing between professionals, I finally stumbled upon something that didn’t just focus on fixing my spine but how I *felt* about it: somatic tracking. Now, I know it sounds a little out-there at first, but stay with me—because this…
I used to think breathwork was one of those trendy wellness hacks that got way too much hype. You know the kind—everyone’s talking about it on social media, but you’re not quite sure if it actually *does* anything. That was me. Then came the persistent tension in my lower back, that dull ache between my…
