Courage in the face of challenge.

In my opinion, anyone dealing with back pain and sciatica symptoms or any health issue is courageous...

Dealing with the pain , the medical tests, emotional and practical impact on your life, the hopes and the fears, the positives and the setbacks; possibly even surgery and picking yourself up and moving on...

It requires a mental and emotional strength of being some of us may not have been aware that we possessed.

It is not always an outward show of courage, it may not even be recognized as courage, it may not be noticed at all, but it is courage nonetheless. I think these quotes say it beautifully...

"Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow".

Mary Anne Radmacher

"There is nobody else like you, The more you can quiet your own thoughts,fears,doubts and suspicions, the more will be revealled to you from the higher realms of imagination, intuition and inspiration"

Kenneth Wydro(American Lecturer)


"Let nothing disturb you, Let nothing frighten you Everything passes away except God"

St Theresa


"Fearlessness may be a gift, but perhaps more precious is the courage acquired through endeavour, courage that comes from cultivating the habit of refusing to let fear dictate ones actions, courage that could be described as "grace under pressure" grace which is renewed repeatedly in the face of harsh unremitting pressure"


Aung San Suu Kyi
(Winner of Nobel Peace Prize)

I read to help ourselves through difficult times we should focus on what you do want, not on what you don't want, have gratitude for the things you have, not wish for what you don't have, love the people who love you , do the things you CAN DO and dont worry about the rest. I learned that love can help to overcome fear.

Also to never give up, keep striving for your solution and try to be at peace with yourself. Applaud yourself for everything you do that is courageous in the face of your pain. You are courageous and perfect.

Wishing you peace and happiness If you liked this post do consider joining our Facebook Page Sciatica Solutions.
