As Joletta Belton so eloquently put it: « there are beacons of light amidst the darkness....The beacons come in many forms, the first was discovering pain science and exploring how I could use what I had learned to take an active role in my recovery...It was the key that opened the door to everything else: to introspection and reflection, to active strategies that helped me get back to living well and with ease, such as movement , mindfulness, creativity and connecting with people, places and experiences that mattered to me”.
