  1. CW: disability, ergonomics

    it's been sort of strange thinking about the ergonomics of being bedridden over the last half a year :cat_think: the stressors my body faces every day are quite a bit different from those I faced when I was mostly performing violin for a living, and also different from when I became unable to perform outside but could still stream :bear_shrug:

    during the streaming heavy year, I did have to worry about my elbows, wrists, and hands, but they did not have endure the stress of being at sharp angles nearly as much as when I use my phone or read a book while sitting propped up in bed :cat_frown: the inside corners of my elbows have especially been in danger and I have had to take extra care to both take stress off when I can as well as making sure that they get to be straight and unstressed while asleep :bugcat_nod:

    trying to find proper back support and a position that would avoid giving myself a headache a day was another issue I had to work on, and unfortunately, failure means I have to spend the rest of the day rather miserable and un more pain than I would otherwise have to endure :zerotwo_shrug:

    and then on top of that, learning how to hold my tools like my phone or tablet over long periods of time without stressing a single muscle or muscle group has felt like a nearly impossible task :emolga_sweat:

  3. Am 24. Oktober ist es soweit! ✨ Gemeinsam mit Ulla Kenntner spreche ich in der Akademie Waldschlösschen über ein Thema, das viel zu selten im Fokus steht: die Lebensrealität von queeren Menschen mit Behinderung im ländlichen Raum.⬇️

  6. #Disabiity #ChronicPain
    Since setting up a list of medication and times to take them on my Apple Watch SE, I’ve been better able to control the lower back pain level. There are provisos, though. I must follow the schedule and not do anything sudden or strenuous involving the lower back.
