When an individual becomes arthritic, the realms which get the most impacted are the physical, social and psychological. As already mentioned in my previous e-book in this series, once we figure out how to accept our pain, fatigue, and disability with compassion and not always fight it, we will be able to better cope in the physical and social realms as well. The key is being proactive.

An important part of enjoying a good and vibrant social life, is accepting that your life will be different from now on. But this doesn't mean that your fatigue, pain and disability should define who you are and ruin the quality of your social life. In fact, by compassionately accepting your pain, fatigue, and disability, you will be taking bold steps to developing new ways of socializing that are even more freeing and grace-filled. You can do this by developing positive mindsets and outlooks on your life as it is right now and by taking continuous steps to enjoy your life every day by taking a few proactive steps. But what is more, you can also experience peace of mind and a good quality of social life with a bit of effort and perseverance.
