Shownotes How do you know when you need to work on something physical vs how do you know when to work on something emotional or engage more with mindbody work? That is the question that Anna aims to address in this episode. It isn’t always easy to know what the next step is when it comes to healing. Sometimes the lesson is in getting comfortable with not knowing. If you are struggling to make a decision about what comes next in your healing adventure, this episode is for you.  Useful links: Website: http://annamarsh.co.uk/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anna_marsh_nutrition/ Apply for 1-1 Support: https://annamarsh.co.uk/1-1/

Shownotes Experiencing and recovering from Chronic Illness requires the capacity to change and adapt. We need to learn new habits around how we eat, how we sleep, the routines we keep, the boundaries we set and everything in between. Change, even for someone in good health, is never a walk in the park and many people are prone to procrastination, self sabotage, getting complacent and going round in circles. In this episode Anna helps you to understand these behaviours on a nervous system level, how they relate to the process of change and most importantly, how to overcome them.
