My Story of Chronic Illness
I have been chronically ill now for two years and only recently diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis. Over these two years, I have learned a lot about people. I have seen strength, ignorance, pity, among many other things. I have seen the strength in me and in the loved ones around me, but I have also been faced with the look of disappointment and pity as I tell people, no I'm not better yet. And no I won't be getting better.

Spasmodic Dysphonia
These are two words I had never heard of before despite having lived with this chronic neurological condition for fifteen years. Working as a nurse specialist was a daily challenge until I was finally diagnosed in January 2017. It is easy to misdiagnose spasmodic dysphonia (SD) as very little is known about it. What is known is that there is excessive secretion of neurotransmitter chemicals from the basal gangli called acetylcholine. The amount secreted is usually controlled by the brain; however, in SD the brain loses control over how much secretion is needed, resulting in spasms or contractions of the vocal cords.

Calling All Chubsters. Top Story - September 2017.
It’s considered rude to ask a woman her weight. Heck, it would be rude to ask a man. Women balk and blush at the idea of sharing that number or their dress size, and you can tell they are nearly always lying. But why? With the era we live in now — social justice warriors armed with the wunderkind "social media" — why is body shame even still an issue?

What Happens When You Ask Yourself: How Do I Feel?
How do I feel? I have learned that this is a phrase we usually never ask ourselves; as a habit we ask others how they are but we forget to check with our own emotions.

Fibromyalgia
As I sit in the slightly less intimidating but no more comfortable side chair in my doctor’s office, I find myself wondering: why did I have to get stuck with the chronic illness that no one seems to know how to really treat?

Do Yoga for Mobility
All yoga asanas are a combination of strength, flexibility, mobility, and balance. Using our muscles to support our foundation or hold a certain pose is something we can all definitely feel while we’re practicing, but we’re rarely aware of the hard work our ligaments, tendons, and joints do in order to make everything run smoothly.
