Even walking was a struggle...slow, limping, painful. This is the true recount of a time days after I finally knew I had late stage/neurologic Lyme. The recount becomes a re-enactment, not acted per se, but relived. The mantra that entered my mind that day helped me recover. Affirmations, mantras, and visualizations can help us tremendously. We talk to ourselves all day and what we say, or more important - what we listen to/believe makes a difference.
*This is the first Lyme Life video episode, which may only viewable on Spotify.
