Starting the New Year Positively

As an ambassador and spokesperson for the U.S. Pain Foundation, I am always trying to come up with new ideas on how to share about chronic pain! Recently I partnered with Dr. Heather Gilmore, a fellow pain warrior. We have created a new photo challenge for the month of December. It is all about going into the new year with a grateful and positive attitude, no matter how stressful the holiday season is!

The U.S. Pain foundation accepted to officially promote the challenge! By posting a picture everyday we can spread awareness about chronic pain in a fun way. While talking about illnesses, sometimes we can start to think negatively. Even though having an invisible illness is challenging, an important part of your health is staying positive and happy. No matter what bad news you may receive.

All of the graphics that you see for the photo challenge were made and designed by me. I hope you like them. I encourage all of you to join the Positivity Photo Challenge for the last few days of this month! If you have any questions let me know!
