Please Rate , Review, & Follow this podcast to get updates.
This episode continues education on self-management of fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions. Sleep and rest are an important part of your well-being. Proper sleep is also essential for healing if you have autoimmune diseases, like lupus or RA, or other chronic disorders.
Emerging science shows that sleep is the most effective thing we can do to reset our brain and body health each day. SLEEP IS NOT THE OPPOSITE OF WAKEFULNESS. Sleep is an essential physiologic state that is required for health and longevity. Some body functions only occur when you sleep. This episode is about sleep, why we need sleep, how much, and the terms you often hear, such as the sleep cycle (non- REM and REM sleep), the circadian rhythm, melatonin, and of course, the caffeine and why it disrupts our sleep. 😴You can see the full transcript:https://www.buzzsprout.com/1890983/10875415If you want to implement what I teach on this podcast and join the community of likeminded people, join RheumMate membership - learn more: https://www.rheumcoach.com/rheummate2022

This episode continues education on self-management of fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions. Food and nutrition are an essential part of your well-being. Proper nutrition is also essential if you have autoimmune diseases, like lupus or RA, or other chronic disorders.
Today I am discussing the importance of a healthy microbiome. We talk about the complexity of the GI tract, what the microbiome is, and the role it plays in your health and fibro symptoms. I will cover the terms such as microbiome, microbiota, microbial diversity, dysbiosis, leaky gut probiotics, and prebiotics. I will also provide an overview of the gut and healthy microbiome style of eating.
These are a few slides I pulled from the modules on the gut repair of my Mindful Eating course - you can view it on YouTube - the YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHmh3SkdrrBhS--I6_8IJAQ

Please Rate , Review, & Follow this podcast to get updates.
This episode continues education on self-management of fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions. Exercise and physical activity are an important part of your well-being.
Research and my practical clinical experience show that exercise, regardless of type, reduces pain and depression and improves the overall quality of life. The patients who successfully manage their fibro symptoms universally credit exercise, sleep, and nutrition as essential treatment modalities for controlling their symptoms. These patients may use different exercise types; one may be into yoga, another swimming or walking, etc., but they all move. This episode discusses exercise, our lack of motivation to add physical activity, and how to start moving. Let's GO!

Mind Your Fibromyalgia Podcast - The Science of Sleep
Transcript
Welcome back to Mind your fibro podcast, episode #25 The science of sleep
Today we are shifting from nutrition and starting the discussion on the importance of rest and sleep. I actually think food, fatigue, and sleep are very closely related.
