Was it a stroke of luck?“You’re lucky.” It’s a phrase I’ve heard often since my stroke—lucky to have my sight, lucky to have avoided more severe deficits, and lucky to be here.
I don’t feel lucky about what happened. But I do feel grounded in gratitude for the path of healing I’m on, for the people walking beside me, and for the ways this experience continues to shape how I see myself and the world. This blog is where I make sense of that journey in real time—through story, reflection, and the quiet work of rebuilding. |
 In mindfulness you pay attention to your present thoughts, emotions, sensations, and environment with curiosity and kindness - without interpretation or judgment.
Q: How does mindfulness show up in your life? Learning about mindfulness has made me aware how much I ground. Through mindful meditation I’ve been able to improve my attention and focus. It’s allowed me to shift away, but return… not always chasing the random thoughts. The LYB guided meditations are amazing as they are developed for people with brain injury so there are no extra sounds; they are simple and clear to follow - not too wordy :) |
