@ustheremingtons: Me vs my masseuse… guess who won? Technically.. me at least in a few days. Before postpartum, I experienced chronic depression and anxiety. I’ve been through a lot of trauma and abuse as a kid, and I carry it in my shoulders, neck, and back. If you’ve been following me for a while, you know how much I’ve struggled this past year with postpartum depression, anxiety, and rage. Gratefully I feel like I’m coming out on the other end mentally but I feel like my body is definitely stuck in the ether of postpartum. When Missy asked if if she can do gua sha, I nearly cried because it’s truly what I have been needing! My grandma used to do this for me all the time growing up when I was sick or needed to pick me up! Gua sha is an East Asian healing technique. A trained professional uses a small, smooth-edged tool to firmly stroke your skin in one direction. This can help improve blood flow and reduce inflammation. Thank YOU all for being with me on this journey to healing. Not just post birth but a lifetime of past lives! Because of your support, I am able to afford therapies for myself for the first time without financial burden lingering over my head as it has for my entire life since a teen raising my siblings and practically my parents 💜 forever grateful! #guasha #chinesemedicine #mentalhealthmatters #MentalHealthAwareness #postpartumbody #postpartumrecovery #postpartumjourney #momsover30 #innerchild #HealingJourney #fyp #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodunfiltered
