Unlocking the Secrets to Stress Management Featuring Jin Lee, PhD
Update: 2025-08-30
Description
Stress is a huge problem for people who live with immune-mediated conditions like Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. The condition causes tension in all the parts of our lives. We can't get rid of it, so we need to find ways to either minimize it or manage it. I talk to Dr. Jin Lee, neuropsychologist and CEO of IMIdeology, about managing stress while living with chronic inflammatory diseases like IBD and lupus. We discuss the impact of chronic stress on health, the challenges of fragmented care, and the benefits of a multidisciplinary, holistic approach. Dr. Lee shares practical, easy-to-implement stress management tips that you can do even when sitting at a stoplight! Plus, we tell you about the upcoming "Bridging Autoimmunity: Patient Forum" taking place on September 13th in Dobbs Ferry, NY. You'll come away from this episode understanding how integrated care, community support, and small daily habits can improve quality of life with chronic illness.
