If you let go of ideas about a wall and breaking through, it might help in relaxing and speeding your recovery.

Illnesses sometimes have mysterious aspects that we do not fully understand. It may take more time to recover fully than assumed or imagined. One can let go of the idea or expectation of immediate or very quick recovery.

If you clear you mind of all these ideas and expectations, it will be easier to listen to your body in a more objective way, rather than imposing the brain's own ideas and preconceptions on it.

The body's healing mechanisms are complex. I say leave them alone and let it do its healing with minimal interference. Let it do what it has to do.

Eat well; relax; get good sleep; let go of mileage expectations; enjoy what you can do, rather than fret over what you cannot do. Stop when the body is ready to stop.
