Sometimes, after a bad night of sleep, I look in the mirror and say, "Oh girl, you look so tired." Before I know it, I start to "act" tired. This means I slump my shoulders, shuffle my feet when I walk, and let the fatigue take over. Worst of all, I start believing the story that says, "Oh girl, you're so tired. How will you get through the day?" Today's guest, Dane Johnson, founder of The Crohns/Colitis Lifestyle, struggled with his thoughts during his life-threatening experience with IBD. He said he would look in the mirror and start to act sick. He wouldn't brush his hair, he stopped wearing nicer clothes, and he began to embrace his diagnosis. Dane shared that when he would "act sick",  it led him to discover the powerful connection between the mind and body. Surprisingly, acting sick made him feel genuinely worse. I can relate, as I also notice that when I tell myself I'm tired, it often amplifies my exhaustion. It's fascinating how our thoughts influence our well-being! Dane has MANY helpful tips if you're struggling with your mindset. He also shared his SECRET GUT HACKS that have helped him heal from IBD.
