Welcome to the Phoenix Helix podcast dedicated to reversing autoimmune disease through the paleo,

diet, and lifestyle. While there is no cure for autoimmune disease, the choices we make every day

can have a powerful impact on how we feel. I'm Eileen Laird, your host from phoenixhulix.com,

and I've reduced my rheumatoid arthritis symptoms by 95% without any steroid or immunosuppressant medication.

A short disclaimer.

I'm neither a doctor nor a nutritionist and the opinions expressed here are personal.

Always consult with your health care team before making medical decisions.

Now let's get on to the show.

Music Now let's get on to the show. Well, welcome to episode 10.

The topic today is overcoming self-sabotage.

I get so many emails from readers who have learned how food and lifestyle affects their body,

but continues to make choices that actually cause their autoimmune disease to flare.

And when they email me, they're often in a lot of pain, both physically and emotionally, and they're desperate to stop the pattern.

And so that's the focus of our podcast today.

I'm joined by two guests who have both personal and professional wisdom to share.

Rory Linnehan is the blogger behind the PaleoPi.

While not formally diagnosed with autoimmune disease, he's gone from doctor to doctor

with a series of symptoms that never received an answer, which is a story familiar to many

of you.

He has personal experience with overcoming self-sabotaging behavior and will be sharing his

story with us today.

And Dr. Judy Safrear is a psychiatrist who specializes in nutritional approaches to healing.
