As y'all know, we have to heal our AF with any means we can. Diet, water, medications, surgery has been part of my arsenal. Relaxing my mind, body, and soul is also one way I'm fighting my beast and I thought I'd share some that have helped me the most. These four meds are only 15-20 minutes long...perfect for a sitz bath. I sink into the warm water and listen. My pain level always decreases!
Word of warning to those new to meditation. My first couple of weeks of meditating I did nothing but cry. I believe I was surrendering. I've gone through every emotion with these meditations...from crying in the beginning to today by putting little hard hats on my worker cells repairing my tear (there's even one with a whistle directing everybody). I know it's silly, but I gotta bring humor into this fight. Cause otherwise, I'm boo-hooing and that sure doesn't help!
I hope these help you. Please post your favorites, I'm always looking for more!

You meditate global wellness and health to others around the world. I picture of my fellow AF sufferers around the globe and have been praying for y'all. And I picture you doing the same for everyone else. It's exhilerating in a very humble and loving way. Beautiful.
