It was right after my physio. I was defeated both mentally and physically. It really didn’t go very well. I was desperately trying to do the exercises that he wants me to do. But I can’t seem to do them. I can’t move my toes how I want…or at all. My big toe still doesn’t want to touch the ground. And as little as I felt I did, my foot was extremely sore for the remainder of the day. I’m starting to feel panic. Like I should have just lived with the pain from before. Because so far, this is not better. I just really want to see some improvement.
Having said that, I felt much better after getting to class. Although I had to be careful not to land on my bad foot, I actually did some shoulder rolls, some one legged shrimping (that was very hard), and even some side heel kicks (granted I had to use the wall for balance). Oh, and some really sad lion dancing…but lion dancing nonetheless.
And even though nobody knew that my day itself was a real downer, everyone played a part in helping me end it in a much better note.
Did you want to try some acupuncture?
