Issues sadika is Interested In
- Back Pain - Oh well, who hasn't had back pain (unfortunately)! I'm living with it but at times it gets really frustrating. I exercise several times a week and I also do Yoga which has helped me tremendously.
- Yoga -
- Depression - I'm not clinically depressed but I get my downs from time to time. I have been like that ever since. There is this sadness that just seems to be part of myself. Since I started accepting this part of me, I'm doing much better. It doesn't pull me down as much as it used to.
- Stress - Yup, just like back pain....what's new? Our new 21st century epidemic. I have to say I'm doing pretty well. I know it sounds cliche but Yoga is definitely part of the reason. I'm always excited to hear about other people's story.
- Diabetes - Type 1 - I was diagnosed with type-1 diabetes when I was 10. Just recently I started really confronting my diabetes. I was never in denial, meaning I took my injections, measured my bloodsugar etc. but I never really thought of its impact on my life, e.g. mood swings, maybe the sadness that I mentioned above. I would love to hear other type-1s' stories.
sadika's Story
Hi My name is Patricia. By reading my "hope issues" you probably know a lot about me already. In the past few years I became very interested in health issues. Part of the reason for this is that I realized how much health affects people's live. We usually talk about how money and other materialistic things make us happy but forget to acknowledge the most essential thing: health. Ranging from poor people in Africa (or any of the other plentiful poor parts of the world) to the low-income family who can't afford health care in the US to the Millionaire in Beverly Hills who got diagnosed with terminal cancer, we're all happier people when we're healthy. I'm also really interested in mind-body connections (hence, my interest in Yoga). Last but not least, I'm a type-1 diabetic.
