Light The Path Physical Therapy

How to Get Out of Being Stuck in Your Head

Ever wake up in the night and your mind starts spinning?

LightThe Path Physical Therapy is dedicated to you regaining freedom back from any physical impairment preventing you from reaching your highest potential. We are committed to you achieving your personal goals so that you can return back to living the life that you want to live. All aspects of the treatment clinic will be provided to you stress-free within the comfort of your own home in order to fit your busy schedule.

We value and respect your time, which is why you will also not experience a long wait prior to being seen by a physical therapist. We offer same and next-day appointments. You will receive the care you need when you need it and avoid having to travel to a busy outpatient clinic in the process. Our role is to empower each patient to take action and conquer their physical limitations throughout their plan of care in an optimal way.

We do not accept insurance, which restores the power back to you to make your own decisions regarding your physical therapy treatment. This will rid you of the hassle dealing with a third-party payer intruding and making choices on your plan of care. It also allows us to offer you high value treatment. This means extended appointments scheduled for up to one hour, more focused attention to your needs, more access to contact your physical therapist when needed, and more.

It leads straight into worry, tasks, anxiety, and fear. Maybe you can’t fall asleep, are replaying the day, or rehashing conversions. It happens in the shower, traveling to work, during family time... sometimes it just doesn’t stop.

B eing stuck in our heads is today’s norm for a lot of people. So overwhelmed by overthinking and overdoing that having a good night’s sleep, and finding time to play or be fully present during quality time feels impossible.

Our lives are ruled almost entirely by left-brain logic. Rigid, linear-based, resistant thinking, to-do lists, and analytical mindsets that while certainly have benefits, are given far too much power. We ignore and undervalue the right brain, tied to our feelings, creativity, and our hearts. A totally different way of processing.

To find balance in life and avoid burnout, we must let go of trying to figure things out so much. Our hearts are often whispering the truth from the get-go. Can we stop wasting precious time trying to validate that inner knowing?

If not, we’re like athletes only exercising one side of our body or one side of a muscle. To live in harmony, let’s embrace our full potential, integrating the expansive powers of not only our right brains but also our heart brains. That yes, science has proven exists!

Getting out of our heads requires accessing our hearts, using simple tools like journaling (the mind- dump), meditation (the stillness), and art play (the magic). When you make these regular practices in life the mental chatter fades away and wisdom raises its beautiful, peaceful mind.
