Make Room For Healing

"Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional."

The first time I heard this phrase, I asked to hear it said again.

"Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional."

It was just as powerful the second time.

The more I have learned, the more I realize how true these words are. From the fundamental understanding of how our muscles grow through small tears that heal back stronger to the metaphysical realms of Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey, pain will be a part of our lives.

But "suffering is optional" was the part of the message that really struck me and got me curious.

Suffering often results from the endurance of pain without the intentional pursuit of a solution. And that comes down to a choice.

And it is a choice that my wife Maddie made over a decade ago as she fought to get her life back from the pain and the suffering she experienced from a rare combination of autoimmune diseases that sidelined her and sent her on a journey of pain and healing that she now so bravely shares with so many.

And this is the reason why she has built an entire career around her truth that "pain is inevitable but suffering is optional."

And it is why it is so exciting to bear witness to her making that work available to everyone with the launch of The Corrective Collective!

The Corrective Collective is a private community built to guide your healing journey. Maddie has combined her years of Western treatments and Eastern techniques, which had New York Magazine rank her #1 in New York, and for the first time ever is making them available to everyone, not just the privileged few who found a way to get an appointment in her NYC studio!

Right now, if I asked you, "What part of your body gives you the most consistent pain?" would there be an answer that immediately jumps to mind?

There is for me - my lower back.

Maddie broke down the body into five different zones for healing and has an entire library of videos to guide you through corrective exercises, mindful stretches, and other resources so you can be the architect of your own pain journey.

I am incredibly biased, but this is one of the best launches I've ever had the chance to be a part of, and I can tell you that my personal journey to unlocking my body's natural intelligence has been one of the most significant recent areas of growth for me, thanks in no small part to Maddie.

Now, for $35 a month, one-fifteenth the cost of a single private session, you have access to all of that content, plus a weekly movement class with Maddie and the entire Corrective Collective community - the first one is tomorrow!

Maddie told me I could offer you all an insider discount on your first month. Please use the code MMT10 for $10 off your first month! You just got hooked up!

If you "accidentally" shared that code with others you know who are in the midst of their own pain journey, I promise I won't be mad.

Seeing you on the community call tomorrow would mean so much to me, but I know it will mean even more for your journey to living more aligned and pain-free in your body.

Thank you to so many of you who took me up on the offer last week!

Hope to see you tomorrow!
