“About 24% of the population has susceptible genetics for chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS).” - Jenny Johnson

Health and illness are not binary. A healthy person can become sick in no time, and vice versa. Ultimately, health is a continuum on which, no matter how you’re feeling, there are small steps you can take to improve. The foundations of health are not supplements and medications, although they have their place. Rather, it’s the things like mindfulness, movement, nutrition, and sleep that we rarely give the weight they deserve.

Making the necessary changes to strengthen this foundation can be overwhelming, and navigating the process of getting healthy from complex chronic illness is difficult and often distances our clients from their goals and their vision for their lives. As coaches, we have the capacity to step into a role with them where we can be the person on their health team who gives them the hope they need on their recovery journey.

Today, I'm excited to introduce you to Jenny Johnson, a fellow physical therapist and health coach who has special expertise in CIRS. If you like working with complexity, this is a really interesting subspecialty. Jenny has a unique and essential role in the environmental health space that I think you’ll find inspiring.

In this conversation, Jenny and I discuss chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS), risk factors and triggers, how it affects families, Jenny’s experience with CIRS, reducing your exposure to biotoxins, the role of functional medicine, practical strategies for managing CIRS, why lifestyle factors are critical even when genetic predispositions exist, the value of community support, the need for proactive health measures, and more.

Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!
