Publisher's summary

Competitive athlete turned scientist discovers the key to healing her chronic myofascial pain in this raw and gripping memoir.

An acute injury. Chronic pain. A shocking discovery. Maria Socolof, a former collegiate athlete, at age forty, ruptured a disc in her neck when she rolled over in bed. Time and conventional medicine failed to heal her. Years of debilitating pain followed. She sincerely questioned whether life in such pain was worth living. Then, through mindbody approaches and bewildering revelations, true healing finally began. Her raw chronicle attests to the impact emotional trauma can have on the body and how we can set ourselves free from the limitations of our subconscious. She went from being unable to stand for more than fifteen minutes to hiking in Alaska five years later. She shows us that one can heal, even when hope is lost.

About the Author
Maria Socolof, former competitive gymnast, wife, mother of two, and professional scientist was still dabbling in her sport at age forty when chronic pain hijacked her life. She searched for relief, and in that quest, discovered she had a story to tell. Through twelve years of perseverance, she authored her first memoir about her healing journey, and has now narrated, engineered, and produced the audiobook of that memoir. She holds a Master of Science degree in Environmental Health Sciences from the Harvard School of Public Health and now uses her voice, through writing and speaking, to support others who are healing from pain and trauma. She lives on Long Island with her husband and dog, enjoys being out in nature, and loves visits from her two grown children.
