Uroš shares his inspiring recovery journey from long COVID, revealing how addressing hidden emotional patterns and learning self-compassion transformed not only his health but his entire approach to life. • Prior to illness, Uroš appeared to be living his best life following a 15-month sabbatical, with a fitness routine and new career mentoring entrepreneurs • After contracting COVID for the second time, Uros experienced severe post-exertional malaise, brain fog, and eventually became bed-bound • Finding online recovery stories provided the first ray of hope during a period of despair and medical uncertainty • Breathing techniques helped regulate his nervous system, with yoga nidra becoming a daily practice that brought surprising mental peace • Discovery of his unhealthy relationship with emotions became a turning point – Uroš had been "putting poisonous snakes in a bag" for decades • Self-compassion meditation triggered unexpected emotional release, allowing him to process suppressed feelings • Identifying limiting core beliefs about always needing to "give everything" transformed his relationship with himself and his family • Recovery progressed from bed-bound to house-bound to gradually increasing physical activity over approximately 6 months • Rather than returning to his previous life, Uros is now focused on creating "Uroš 2.0" – integrating recovery lessons into building a more authentic life centered on passion • The recovery journey revealed five phases: calming the nervous system, removing stressors, gradual reexposure to life, leaving the sick mindset behind, and integrating the lessons learned Links : Long Covid Breathing Courses: www.LongCovidBreathing.com Dr Becca Kennedy: https://resilience-healthcare.com/ Dr Becca Kennedy on the Long Covid Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1835170/episodes/14977306 Message the podcast! - questions will be answered on my youtube channel :) For more information about Long Covid Breathing courses & workshops, please check out LongCovidBreathing.com (music credit - Brock Hewitt, Rule of Life) Support the show ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Long Covid Podcast is self-produced & self funded.
