I put everything in God's hands, and leave it there.

I almost never think that I will not be better someday it never enters my thoughts except for a short period of time when something new is piled onto my already broken body like when menieres disease jumped onboard awhile back it did take a little bit to adjust I woke up one morning totally deaf in one ear with a loud static electrical noise with a jet engine background and looked like a drunk trying to walk then my peripheral neuropathy has gotten worse I no longer feel my toes and my feet feel like I am walking on crushed gravel vibrate but my PMR/GCA is more in control and back surgery to help nerve entrapment was successful so I am thankful I believe we make our own karma we are responsible for our own wellbeing no magical entity is coming to help me I don’t dwell on my own health issues except on rare occasions

I just make the decision, will I let my condition win or will I fight! I choose to fight. I keep a good mindset and remain upbeat. Its not always easy, but I do it every day, along with prayer.

I don't have a daily practice that uplifts my spirits, it takes everything in me just to get out of bed. I do read a devotion and scripture every morning. When I find myself thinking I can't go on, can't take the pain anymore I try to turn to prayer or think of a favorite song or hymn, my all time go to is "Because He Lives", especially the chorus, which is:
"Because He lives I can face tomorrow, because He lives all fear is gone, and because I know He holds the future I know that life is worth the living just because He lives". If interested you can find it on YouTube, it is a beautiful hymn.

Maintaining a nice attitude at the same time as managing a continual situation entails a aggregate of recognition, lively coping strategies, and nurturing emotional resilience

I do acupuncture each week. This is a time to relax and breathe. I've also started slow strength training which helps me with both strength and balance.
