Be selective in friendship. Because in adulthood, friendship is no longer small talk and plans. The brightest gabapentin I ever did see 👀 🧡 Have you ever had to completely reinvent how you show up for yourself? 💕✨ The small bowel contrast MRI results are in... Video is 1.6X speed because I felt I needed to add a bit of context about my history with #InflammatoryBowelDisease, #UlcerativeColitis! If you're willing to receive the #reiki energy, all you need to do is consent ✨️ The intention or a nod is enough ⚘️ I was reading @journalingibd’s most recent post about how we’re not our thoughts, and I just wanted to hop in and agree! I’m very aware that a few years ago, I’d never have imagined writing such words – particularly the end! Peace and love, man ☮️ Would you be interested in helping me with a #Reiki experiment?✨ Bridlington today. It was like shade didn't exist. There was nowhere to hide ☀️ ✨️ I would not interfere Today is #WorldIBDDay, and while my feed is constantly flooded with wellness influencers talking about bloating, green juices, and "healing your gut" with bone broth, the reality for millions of us is entirely different. Just an ordinary Saturday 💊 🤣 It's like the sound track of our house 😂
