You’re Not Missing Out — 
You’re Healing In

If you live with migraines, you know the fear.

The fear of saying yes to something you might have to cancel.

The guilt when you disappoint someone again.

The frustration of watching your life shrink to fit your pain.

That fear doesn’t just live in your head—it lives in your body.

When you’re constantly worried about missing out, your brain tells your body, “We’re not safe.”

Your nervous system flips into fight-or-flight mode, and before long, that stress becomes chronic.

Cortisol stays high.
Adrenaline keeps firing.
Your body stops repairing and starts reacting.

You can even see it in your lab results—off electrolytes, rising inflammation markers, white blood cells that act like they’re on high alert.

All of these are signs that your nervous system has forgotten how to relax.

This is why thoughts matter so much.

Because when your brain feels safe, your body can finally heal.

When you shift your inner voice from “I can’t” to “How can I?”

From “I’ll probably have to cancel” to “What do I need to do to make sure I don’t have to?”—

you’re retraining your brain to look for safety instead of danger.

And that safety changes everything.

Inflammation goes down.
Electrolytes rebalance.
Your migraine threshold rises.

Inside my Freedom From Migraines Method, we don’t just talk about diet or supplements—we focus on how your brain and body communicate.

Because you can’t heal your body while your brain is still living in fight-or-flight.

Every time you rest without guilt, every time you breathe through fear instead of resisting it, you’re building the foundation of migraine freedom.

So no—you’re not missing out.

You’re healing in.

And that’s how real, lasting migraine freedom begins.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Debbie Waidl is the Owner of In The Balance Health Coaching LLC, and Founder of The Freedom From Migraines Method™   & The Migraine Freedom Protocol™ 
She supports busy moms living with Migraines. 

Debbie will uncover what is holding them back from migraine freedom so they can live their life pain and symptom free, work productively, spend the time they want with family and friends, and stop missing out on the things they enjoy.

A message from Debbie:
"I was once right where you are now.  100% believing there was NO WAY to end migraines and my only option was to learn how to live with them or find that magic pill that maybe would work for a while.  If anyone told me back then that I could end my pain once and for all, I would have called BS and popped another pill!

Skeptical times 10  was my middle name for sure because when you try it all and everyone tells you they can help you and they don’t.   You stop believing…  you lose HOPE!

I now realize I was approaching my migraines all backward.

I was trying to cover up symptoms versus trying to end my pain."
