As a person who suffers with anxiety, I’m accustomed to being heightened or on edge when the wrong elements hit me a certain way. Last night, my endometriosis flared up something vicious. Depending on the pain level, I can move around with it or curl up into a ball and submit to the pain. While doing IG stories creating this dish, I refused to call it quits. It’s been 10 days since my family ceased work and school – my norm is shaken. Every time I think I’m adjusting to the required changes, something disturbs my adjustments and I want to rebel – and so I continued cooking. When I cook, I am reminded to pace myself, breathe and every step counts. It is a therapeutic and scientific act that requires attention and patience. Surely I felt the dull pains tap against my body bit it felt damn good to not lose another thing that this quarantine is taking away from me. I’m restricted in movement but not my art. Finding my wins wherever I can earn them. Last night’s dinner: Teriyaki Glazed Salmon | Roasted Kale | Sauteed Asparagus | Tri Colored Couscous in Asian Spiced Broth #runningfatchef #fatrunner #chef #cheftalk #culinary #quarantinemeals #anxiety #endometriosis #salmon #endometriosisawareness #eatarainbow #fiveaday #fish (at Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-F3Ex-n4Nt/?igshid=g86zm2vfwpw3 -- source link
