    E10 LIVING FORWARD

    Wherever you are in your story—just at the beginning, somewhere in the middle, or deep, deep, deep into it—I just hope you remember this: planning is not giving in. Acceptance is not weakness. And hope isn’t only for the cure; it’s for living. It’s for living right now with love, purpose, courage, joy, and gratitude.  ... it's LIVING FORWARD "Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment." – Buddha #MultipleSclerosisSymptoms #AutoimmuneDiseaseTreatments #ChronicInflammation #Remedies #MSDiagnosis #FlareUps #MSAndExercise #InflammationAndDiet #HealingAutoimmuneDisease #InflammationAndStress #MSAndLifestyle #ChronicInflammation #PainManagement #MSAndMeditation #ImprovingAutoimmune #Recovery #Fatigue #RestorativeSleep #SleepHygiene #ChronicIllness #AutoimmuneDiet #Anti-InflammatoryFoods #EliminationDiet #GutHealth #PaleoDiet #LeakyGut #HealingDiet #HealingFoods #Supplements #StressManagement #AutoimmuneHealing #MSAndStress #AutoimmuneDiseaseAndStress #MentalHealth #MindfulnessAndHealing #MS #ChronicFatigue #Autoimmune #Inflammation #HealingAndStress #ReducingAnxiety #InflammationSuperhighway  #Love #SelfLove

    Ep9 EMPHASISING STRENGTHS

    When we choose to highlight our strengths, we empower ourselves. And the bottom line is, we achieve more and live a much more fulfilled and purpose-driven life. I want to leave you with that thought because this Inflammation Superhighway is a long journey, and it can sometimes feel like a rollercoaster. So give yourself that peace of mind, that positive feedback. Create the language that allows you to speak to your body in a healing way. Because when you do that, it also allows others to find solace, faith, and hope in where they are going. "You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." – A.A.

    EPISODE 8.2 STOP SAYING YOU'RE OKAY - Stress and its effects - Pt.2

    "Now, let us embark on a deeper exploration of how to navigate the complexities of illness and the invaluable lessons I gleaned throughout my personal journey. I found myself attempting to uncover the subtle, hidden fragments of what had gone awry within my body—what had shifted and enabled this inflammatory condition to take root so profoundly. I was confronted with the unsettling realization that my own stubbornness, coupled with an unwavering determination to maintain independence and self-sufficiency, may have played a significant role in my unraveling."

    EPISODE 8.1: STOP SAYING YOU'RE OKAY! How stress affects dis-ease Pt.1

    During the break, I found myself constantly reflecting on the importance of addressing stress. It's a challenging and often uncomfortable topic, one that doesn't exactly spark excitement. I know it’s not the most glamorous subject, but the act of decluttering, reducing stress, and creating a clearer, more organized environment are truly foundational steps in our journey toward genuine wellness. And that’s exactly the path I want to guide you all on—toward a place of true well-being. I wholeheartedly believe that this episode could very well be one of the most pivotal I’ll ever create. “Don’t believe every worried thought you have.

    Episode 7. THE BODY LISTENS !!!!!!

    THE BODY LISTENS !!!!!! 'I am on my own healing journey and in light of this incredible event, my next podcast episode will focus on self-belief and the importance of chasing our dreams, no matter the obstacles. I want to share how this experience has reinforced the profound impact that such optimism can have on our mental and physical health.  And as you say "Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones, and I will try to fix you." (words from COLDPLAY song FIX YOU) You have ignited a fire within me to spread my self-healing message far and wide.' “Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans.” – John Lennon #MultipleSclerosisSymptoms #AutoimmuneDiseaseTreatments #ChronicInflammation #Remedies #MSDiagnosis #FlareUps #MSAndExercise #InflammationAndDiet #HealingAutoimmuneDisease #InflammationAndStress #MSAndLifestyle #ChronicInflammation #PainManagement #MSAndMeditation #ImprovingAutoimmune #Recovery #Fatigue #RestorativeSleep #SleepHygiene #ChronicIllness #AutoimmuneDiet #Anti-InflammatoryFoods #EliminationDiet #GutHealth #PaleoDiet #LeakyGut #HealingDiet #HealingFoods #Supplements #StressManagement #AutoimmuneHealing #MSAndStress #AutoimmuneDiseaseAndStress #MentalHealth #MindfulnessAndHealing #MS #ChronicFatigue #Autoimmune #Inflammation #HealingAndStress #ReducingAnxiety #InflammationSuperhighway  #Love #SelfLove

    Episode 6: THE JOYFUL DIET

    "When we hear about diets, we often concern ourselves with the question, "Oh my goodness, what am I going to have to give up?" We fear giving up things like our favorite cheese, sugar (which means alcohol), or garlic, because, let’s face it, the smell of frying garlic is one of life’s biggest joys. But can I tell you something? When you give up certain items from your diet, and your body begins to sing with joy, it's because that item, which has caused your body to struggle for so long, is finally gone." A healthy gut is essential for overall well-being, impacting digestion, immunity, and mental health. It regulates nutrient absorption, supports the immune system, and influences mood through the gut-brain connection. Maintaining a balanced gut microbiome promotes vitality, reduces inflammation, and fosters resilience against disease, enhancing both physical and emotional health. 'One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.'

    Episode 5 SLEEP

    Sleep plays a crucial role in the health and well-being of individuals with autoimmune diseases. Autoimmune conditions occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues, leading to inflammation and various symptoms. Quality sleep is vital for regulating the immune system and reducing inflammation, as it helps maintain a balanced immune response. During sleep, the body undergoes repair and regeneration processes, which are particularly important for those with autoimmune disorders to help heal damaged tissues. Moreover, adequate sleep can reduce stress levels, which is known to exacerbate autoimmune conditions. Poor sleep, on the other hand, can lead to a weakened immune system, increased inflammation, and flare-ups of autoimmune symptoms. Thus, ensuring sufficient, restful sleep is essential for managing autoimmune diseases, enhancing overall quality of life, and preventing the worsening of symptoms. Prioritizing good sleep hygiene can make a significant difference in managing these chronic conditions. "The human spirit is stronger than anything that can happen to it." - C.C.

    Episode 4: MOVE

    "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." I thought this quote was appropriate as we discuss movement and exercise in our lives, starting with the concept that it is just a single step. In episode 3; I mentioned exercise and movement interchangeably. But I want to clarify that distinction. Exercise is fabulous; it increases the oxygen flow in our body, triggers chemical releases like dopamine, suppresses cortisol, aids digestion, helps with muscle tone, and is crucial for maintaining bone density. However, exercise often embodies the concepts of high energy, high performance, high achievement, and competition.  I want to separate that from movement, which is a gentler way of supporting the body—physically, mentally, and emotionally. #MultipleSclerosisSymptoms #AutoimmuneDiseaseTreatments #ChronicInflammation #Remedies #MSDiagnosis #FlareUps #MSAndExercise #InflammationAndDiet #HealingAutoimmuneDisease #InflammationAndStress #MSAndLifestyle #ChronicInflammation #PainManagement #MSAndMeditation #ImprovingAutoimmune #Recovery #Fatigue #RestorativeSleep #SleepHygiene #ChronicIllness #AutoimmuneDiet #Anti-InflammatoryFoods #EliminationDiet #GutHealth #PaleoDiet #LeakyGut #HealingDiet #HealingFoods #Supplements #StressManagement #AutoimmuneHealing #MSAndStress #AutoimmuneDiseaseAndStress #MentalHealth #MindfulnessAndHealing #MS #ChronicFatigue #Autoimmune #Inflammation #HealingAndStress #ReducingAnxiety #InflammationSuperhighway  #Love #SelfLove

    Episode3. WHERE TO BEGIN YOUR HEALING?

    "The beginning is the most important part of the work." - Plato Keeping a diary of disease symptoms and daily routines helps identify patterns, triggers, and improvements in health. It aids in effective communication with healthcare providers, supports personalised treatment plans, and enhances self-management strategies for better health outcomes. Journaling aids self-awareness, tracks progress and highlights goal achievement. #MultipleSclerosisSymptoms #AutoimmuneDiseaseTreatments #ChronicInflammation #Remedies #MSDiagnosis #FlareUps #MSAndExercise #InflammationAndDiet #HealingAutoimmuneDisease #InflammationAndStress #MSAndLifestyle #ChronicInflammation #PainManagement #MSAndMeditation #ImprovingAutoimmune #Recovery #Fatigue #RestorativeSleep #SleepHygiene #ChronicIllness #AutoimmuneDiet #Anti-InflammatoryFoods #EliminationDiet #GutHealth #PaleoDiet #LeakyGut #HealingDiet #HealingFoods #Supplements #StressManagement #AutoimmuneHealing #MSAndStress #AutoimmuneDiseaseAndStress #MentalHealth #MindfulnessAndHealing #MS #ChronicFatigue #Autoimmune #Inflammation #HealingAndStress #ReducingAnxiety #InflammationSuperhighway

    Episode 2 (Part 2) OVERWHELM & ACCEPTANCE

    "Beginnings are usually scary, and endings are usually sad, but it's everything in between that makes it all worth living." - Bob Marley Receiving a negative health diagnosis can be profoundly overwhelming. It triggers fear, uncertainty about the future, and a flood of medical information to process. Coping involves emotional support, understanding the condition, and adjusting daily life, creating a significant challenge to one's well-being and sense of stability. #MultipleSclerosisSymptoms #AutoimmuneDiseaseTreatments #ChronicInflammation #Remedies #MSDiagnosis #FlareUps #MSAndExercise #InflammationAndDiet #HealingAutoimmuneDisease #InflammationAndStress #MSAndLifestyle #ChronicInflammation #PainManagement #MSAndMeditation #ImprovingAutoimmune #Recovery #Fatigue #RestorativeSleep #SleepHygiene #ChronicIllness #AutoimmuneDiet #Anti-InflammatoryFoods #EliminationDiet #GutHealth #PaleoDiet #LeakyGut #HealingDiet #HealingFoods #Supplements #StressManagement #AutoimmuneHealing #MSAndStress #AutoimmuneDiseaseAndStress #MentalHealth #MindfulnessAndHealing #MS #ChronicFatigue #Autoimmune #Inflammation #HealingAndStress #ReducingAnxiety #InflammationSuperhighway
