Let's Pour Some Gold into Our Cracks and Be Beautiful Again. Fibromyalgia, Kintsugi and a Mita Deep Dive. Creative Copes: Season One, Episode 12

In this deep dive episode, Mita gets up close and personal with her diagnosis of Fibromyalgia. This is part one, where we discuss this complex condition with very subjective symptoms. We only scratch the surface, as there is a ton to talk about on the subject. Any search engine investigation will turn up thousands of websites, from the informative to the insane. We find out common ailments, the beginning of Mita's journey to her diagnosis, and the complete overhaul one must do to live with this often misunderstood, chronic, invisible illness. Join us as we begin to learn some interesting facts about fibromyalgia. She likens her syndrome to Kintsugi - The Golden Joinery that allows artists to pour gold into the cracks of something that has broken and make it beautiful again. And that is a beautiful approach to healing. We dive deeper in the blog, Wisdom Walks, on our website: https://creativecopes.wixsite.com/podcast/wisdomwalks.
