    E238 Understanding Fibromyalgia and Finding Relief with Tami Stackelhouse

    Tami Stackelhouse explains what fibromyalgia really is and why so many people struggle to get answers about their pain, fatigue, and brain fog. She also shares how stress affects the body and why learning to support your sleep, nervous system, and lifestyle can help you start feeling better.  Tami Stackelhouse is an award-winning author, founder of the International Fibromyalgia Coaching Institute, host of the Fibromyalgia Podcast®, and executive producer of the feature documentary, INVISIBLE. Tami teaches fibromyalgia patients how to take back control of their lives and health using her signature Fibromyalgia Wellness Framework℠ — so they can break free from the prison their bodies have become and begin living lives they love. In this episode: Tami shares that her journey with fibromyalgia began after she was diagnosed herself in 2007, and after finally getting help from a health coach, she felt better and decided she wanted to help others feel better too.She explains that fibromyalgia is a chronic pain condition where pain can move around the body, and people often deal with deep fatigue, brain fog, and sleep that never feels truly refreshing.She talks about how confusing diagnosis can be because there is no simple test for fibromyalgia, so doctors often have to rule out many other conditions first.Tami shares that with fibromyalgia, the nervous system can start to treat normal sensations as pain, almost like the body’s “pain volume knob” has been turned way up.She explains that stress can play a big role, both before fibromyalgia develops and after, because the body can get stuck in fight-or-flight mode and stay tense for hours or even days.She talks about how people with fibromyalgia often feel misunderstood since they may look fine on the outside while dealing with serious pain and exhaustion on the inside.Tami shares some hopeful news: it is possible to feel much better, and she even reached remission from fibromyalgia pain by making lifestyle changes and listening closely to her body.She explains that sleep is one of the most important things to work on, and many people with fibromyalgia also have sleep issues like sleep apnea that need proper testing.Tami encourages people to learn as much as they can about their condition, ask questions, build the right support team, and remember that fibromyalgia is real—and feeling better is absolutely possible.Tami talks about her quiz - Fibromyalgia Wellness Style Quiz — a free, science-based quiz that helps you use your strengths to feel better, reduce stress, and live well with fibromyalgia. https://FibroQuiz.comContacting Tami: https://tamistackelhouse.com  https://fibromyalgiapodcast.com  On Socials: https://facebook.com/fibrocoach  https://www.instagram.com/fibrocoach   https://linkedin.com/in/tamistackelhouse Blogpost:  https://therelaxationlounge.info/understanding-fibromyalgia-and-finding-relief/  Note: Just a reminder that this information presented here is for informational and educational purposes only and not intended to replace professional help. ***** Relax Now Mobile App The Relax-Now mobile app offers quick, expert-led relaxation practices designed to fit into your busy day - anytime, anywhere.
