Recovery and maintaining it requires a holistic approach. Take good physical care of the body with diet and rest and take good care of the mind with serious stress reduction. It needs to be a lifestyle change to stay healthy.

Thank you for that.
I get the stress part--just not that well obviously!!
The week I started to make my rash decisions about my partner-my life-I was just finishing a dramatic body cleanse and had the flu for 2 or 3 days during that period. I was, admittedly, in a weakened state. I guess with that, the mental stress I was just asking for trouble.
My question--in periods like this and with PCS is our emotional and mental guard `down` where we are prone to unreasonable reactions and thinking ?
Just feel so messed up emotionally and physically.
and the topper--maybe-is i am self employed working long hours with no breaks in terms of weekends.
I think I need a recipe for health
thanks for listening
