FRIDAY 5 - How To Prevent Autoimmune Flares (Once Your Are in Remission)
In this Friday 5 episode of The Autoimmune RESET, VJ explores actionable strategies for empowering yourself against autoimmune flare-ups and taking control of your health.
VJ begins by emphasising the importance of taking a preventative approach. She focuses on incorporating healthy habits into your daily routine to support your immune system and prevent flare-ups proactively.
VJ discusses the significance of reducing processed foods and cooking from scratch to nourish your body with whole, nutrient-dense foods that reduce inflammation and support overall health.
Prioritising sleep emerged as another crucial strategy, with tips on establishing a calming bedtime routine and optimizing your sleep environment for restorative rest.
The importance of incorporating stress management techniques into your daily routine was highlighted, with suggestions such as meditation, deep breathing exercises, yoga, and spending time in nature to combat chronic stress and reduce the risk of flare-ups.
Finally, VJ emphasises the significance of knowing your body and recognising the early signs of a flare before it escalates, empowering you to take proactive steps to maintain your health and well-being.
By implementing these strategies—taking a preventative approach, reducing processed foods, prioritising sleep, incorporating stress management tools, and knowing your body—listeners can empower themselves to stay ahead of autoimmune flare-ups and live their lives to the fullest.
