Arianna Huffington Instagram – So deeply grateful for all the incredibly kind and thoughtful messages I’ve received over the past week as I’ve been rehabbing my broken shoulder and fractured knee. During this time of recovery, I’ve been practicing my Microsteps and wanted to share some of the tips and wisdom I’ve gotten from so many of you. I’ve fallen in love with healing foods like chicken feet soup, anti-inflammatory freshly grated ginger tea, turmeric shots, and fresh puréed soup from leafy greens, broccoli, cauliflower and spices (recipe thanks to @monavand). And of course, my favorite avgolemono (Greek chicken lemon soup). I’ve played with different colors of Play-Doh (for muscle stimulation), applied CVS ice packs, tried new tech gadgets like Erchonia lasers, Celluma LED light therapy (thank you, @chefserenapoon!), Biomat and DJO OL1000 for bone growth stimulation, and used some tried and true basics like essential oils. I’ve been finding joy in smelling the fresh roses from my grandson, looking at favorite photos of my daughters and watching my personal @thrive Reset to breathe mindfully and remember all that I’m grateful for. Of course, I’m meditating and reading, reading, reading. Right now I’m in the middle of “Healing Spaces,” by @dresternberg (thank you, @brianlevin!). And I’m building a whole new wardrobe fit for a broken shoulder — shirts from ReboundWear (thank you for the rec, @deanbaccarelli!), and capes and more capes. Last but not least, I’ve been remembering to be patient with myself and enjoying the progress I’m making daily (even when it’s small or not even apparent!). And so I’m including here a quote that was sent to me by @drlaurenhodges that applies to life with or without a broken shoulder.
