Yesterday I had a root canal and as I sat in the dentists chair, I focused on my breating. I closed my eyes and thought peacful thoughts. Of course, the sedatives helped put me in a relaxed state.
I have never really learned about self-care. Even though there are ways of self-care that are easy, sometimes self-care requires tough love. Sometimes we have to say come on to our inner child and I will lead you. It will be a good journey. Let's see what we can learn from this experience.
Many things opened up for me. I found that my dentist was really on my side. I found that he really tried to make me comfortable as possible. I also found that I am able to tolerate a little pain.
There are many experiences in life to learn from. I am ready for the next one, and I am not afraid of going back to the dentist.
