What if your recovery could begin long before the first incision? We sat down with author and teacher Peggy Huddleston to explore a five-step mind-body approach that helps patients feel calmer, need fewer pain meds, and bounce back faster after surgery. Alongside Peggy’s insights, Carolyn and Darcy share a candid, hopeful story: earbuds in, guided relaxation on repeat in pre-op, and a recovery that moved from heavy meds to Tylenol in roughly ten days after a major procedure.
We dig into why this works. Guided relaxation and visualization support the parasympathetic nervous system, lowering anxiety and pain sensitivity while improving sleep and inflammation control. Belief isn’t fluff; it’s physiology. Peggy points to placebo research and clinical examples where consistent practice aligned with measurable changes—x-rays showing bone healing and immune markers shifting in a favorable direction. We also talk strategy: how to choose high-volume surgeons for complex operations and how simple habits—breath, intention, and compassionate self-talk—make medical advice easier to follow when it matters most.
The conversation widens to daily life. Where do you store stress in your body? How can you release it before it becomes chronic pain or disease? We explore flow states as medicine—activities you love that dissolve stress and return the body to balance. From wing foiling to knitting, the activity is just the doorway; the real therapy is the nervous system reset. If you’re skeptical or short on time, start small: watch short patient and clinician clips, try the relaxation MP3 to fall asleep, and let your body give you the feedback.
If you or someone you love is preparing for surgery—or simply craving a steadier, safer relationship with your own healing—this conversation offers clear steps, practical resources, and a grounded, heart-forward way to participate in your care.
