In her 20's, doctors told Kathy that she had the spine of an 80 year old.  Then an inoperable ruptured disc left her bedridden for 5 years.   Kathy turned this life disruption into an opportunity to hit the reset button.  In this episode of Linda's Corner, Kathy shares secrets to transition from suffering to thriving.   Kathy Harmon-Luber is a certified reiki & sound healing practitioner, healing navigator, and the author of “Suffering to Thriving.”  You can reach Kathy at her website https://sufferingtothriving.com.

Some of the highlights Kathy shares:

• Life disruptions can cause us to ask the "wrong" questions like:  Why did this happen to me?  What if I'm a burden?  What if everybody leaves me?  What if I can never lead a normal life again? etc.  These questions lead to bitterness, depression, and a downward spiral to misery
• Asking the "right" questions like: What can I do today to feel better?  What brings me joy?  What CAN I do?  What if something wonderful happens today? etc.  These types of questions increase hope,  gratitude, solutions, and lead to an upward spiral to healing
