Intro Welcome if this is your first time listening  - I’m Audrey Christie - I’m a functional and integrative nurse nutritionist and energy medicine practitioner. I help women start their very own Autoimmune Revolution so you can stop chasing symptoms and learn how to heal your body from autoimmune disease. I feel like we had some grumbles last week with morning routines, many people aren’t morning peeps, and that is a-oaky. As you learned last week - a morning routine isn’t reserved for only those people that are early birds. Personally, I am a morning person, and for sure not a night owl, but being a morning person doesn’t stop me from having a nighttime routine that works well to help me drift off to sleep and stay asleep. In the Autoimmune Revolution membership, one of the FIRST things we work through is SLEEP. Why? Because, as Thomas Dekker famously said, it is the golden chain that connects our body to healing. So often when we start to examine what the Autoimmune Revolution members are doing, why they might not be getting optimal sleep - heck even sometimes part of the reason they are suffering from so much anxiety. When going through and assessing where our routines are, I have found that everyone has some sort of morning and nighttime routine, they are present but are actually contributing to their inflammation, rather than assisting the body in healing.
