In this first episode, we introduce ourselves and a bit of our stories of illness, and we give some background to this crazy idea of starting a podcast on healing.  

We share our 'ground rules':
*healing is our greatest priority (which may make this podcast a bit unpredictable!)
*the information and ideas we share are an expression of us, of our experiences, of the things that are helpful to *us* and not meant as advice unless it feels helpful to any of you
*this podcast is an exercise in imperfection (from two recovering perfectionists)
*even though Sarah is a physician, we clarify that NONE of this podcast or the website contents constitutes medical advice or is meant in any way to take the place of your own proper medical or mental health care

Terms: 
ME/CFS=myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome
POTS=postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome
dysautonomia=dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (which controls many of the automatic processes of the body)

Join us for an imperfectly hopeful story...
