Chronic Illness Recovery | Lori Clemmons on Rewiring the Brain | EP004

In this episode of Thriving Beyond Diabetes, we speak with Lori Clemmons, a wellness coach, mindfulness practitioner, and author of Rewire Your Wellness. After living with chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, and debilitating fatigue for over two decades, Lori found her way to full recovery using a brain-based approach called self-directed neuroplasticity.

Now she helps others do the same by teaching how to rewire the brain, calm the nervous system, and build a compassionate, healing relationship with the body. Her work is especially powerful for people living with a health condition, chronic fatigue, or other long-term health conditions, where the emotional and mental aspects of wellness are often underestimated.
