Can we befriend a body in pain? With autoimmune disease, we've been told that our body is attacking us which sets up war imagery in our minds. Yet our bodies are our home.

Are we willing to do the same, mentally and emotionally? In today's mindset minisode, I share a simple but powerful technique that can be a first step to befriending your body.
