Joanne Smith explains that mini flare-ups during recovery aren't failures. Each one is a chance to show your nervous system that change is possible, pushing back against the belief that symptoms are permanent or incurable.
So then when that happens, do not panic, do not panic, because that is not a failure. That's how the system works. So it's not like having that little mini flare up there is normal. That happens very often for people along this journey. And each time that that will happen is an opportunity to show, physically show for yourself, your nervous system, something different, something new, because it can change. Nothing is permanent, even though many, many, many of us have been told that what we have is permanent and it's incurable, irreversible, there's nothing that can be done. We know differently now, so each time that that might happen is an opportunity rather than a failure.
