Interestingly, they noted that the five top benefits from post-traumatic growth correlate with the five regrets that people had on their deathbeds.
Suggesting that trauma and the subsequent perspective/grow it provides, may help lead to a life of greater clarity and purpose.... and with any luck, less regret.

👉Real talk, it took a long time for me after my concussion and the whole life falling apart thing to begin to approach my injury as an opportunity for growth.
Eventally, I stopped pushing through/denying my reality and instead begin to work WITH my body, listen to it, and move through recovery. It was hard, lonely and confusing.
BUT...after the dust settled and I let go of how things were supposed to be, I started to reap the benefits of post-traumatic growth in all categories.
I'm IN AWE of what post traumatic growth has brought to my life.
I want that for each one of you.
