Just because your doctor has said your illness is chronic or incurable, it does not mean it has to be a life sentence. Lyn explains how you can use your mindset and other holistic remedies to find what works best for your body and find true healing instead of symptom management. If you are looking for a wake-up call to start listening to your body and stop ignoring the path you should be on, this episode is it.
