My back is going to take a long time to heal, and though acupuncture has eased the pain and stiffness, it can't perform miracles. Acupuncture has had a much more dramatic effect on my mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. I began to feel more empowered. I believe that this feeling comes from the awareness that I am far less at the mercy of my 'inner demons'. I've had to alter my lifestyle to accommodate the changes that acupuncture has wrought in me, but these changes have been necessary for me to keep growing as a person.
Personal space is now an unshakeable priority.
I never socialise because I feel obliged to. I'm not as frightened of being alone anymore. This has given me the freedom to see my aims in life as real possibilities, and not unattainable dreams. In time, I'll move on to fulfil my ambitions. All rights reserved.
