What Happens When You Start Seeing Yourself as Healthy?
from UnabridgedMD · host Isabelle Amigues, MD
Can the way you see yourself actually influence how you feel and function?In this Rheumatology 101 live, Dr. Isabelle Amigues discusses the Counterclockwise Study and what it can teach us about the connection between the mind and body.The study explored what happened when older adults were immersed in an environment designed to make them behave as though they were 20 years younger. Dr. Amigues connects this concept to rheumatology and the importance of how patients envision their health journey.Instead of constantly thinking, “I have this disease. I’m always going to be sick. Will I need this medication forever?” consider shifting the focus toward what is possible:“I am getting better.” “My treatment is helping me.” “I am working toward remission.” “What can I do today to help my body?”Modern rheumatology has powerful treatments, including targeted therapies and biologic medications. Mindset isn't a replacement for medical treatment—but the way you approach your health journey can be an important part of how you experience it.If you live with rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory arthritis, or another rheumatologic condition, don't stop imagining what feeling better could look like.📌 Like, comment, and subscribe for more community driven and rheumatology-based content!
