I had an amazing doctor when I was going to nursing school; When a patient tackled me as well as broke our back, I underwent a lot of physical therapy, but it wasn’t helping, then i was walking again, even though I was in drastic pain… My doctor suggested I try medical marijuana for the pain, then she also gave me some pamphlets that talked about holistic health… Holistic health worked with the mind, body, as well as spirit to treat its patients.
I was taking beginner yoga classes as well as studying how to meditate… Along with small doses of medical marijuana, I was studying how to meditate as well as circumvent the pain I was feeling. Although meditation did not completely ease our pain, it upped our pain threshold as well as helped lower the pain level… Beginners yoga was showing me how to do stretching exercises from a chair that would help take some pressure off our back, as well as yet stretch it as well as help me receive mobility. It surprised me how much I was studying about holistic health from our physician. It took almost 2 years, even though I was finally back into nursing, as well as I once again met the doctor I was training under. She seemed pleased with our progress as well as asked if I was sure I was ready to come back to school? I explained how I had learn a lot about holistic health, as well as I was practicing yoga as well as meditation every day. After getting our nursing degree, I wanted to get a degree in holistic health. She told me if I needed any help, all I needed to do was ask.
