When I get a flare of fibro, it comes with a flare of the blues--or is it vice versa? Which one triggers the other?
When inflammation occurs in the body or mind, it literally feels like a small internal fire, a flare-up.
A wise friend reminded me that a "flare is also a type of "pyrotechnic that produces a brilliant light or intense heat without an explosion. Flares are used for signaling....The body is signaling when emotional wounds translate to physical pain."
WOW! I said out loud when I read that.
Instead of just putting out the fire with ibuprofen, we'd do well to pay close attention to the signals and ask, "What are you trying to tell me?"
