Greetings L.I.F.E. Practitioners,

We are so pleased to present this month’s international speaker Tammy Harris APRN/RN

External influences that can affect low functioning autism.

She has served as an APRN/RN for 22 years. Throughout her nursing career, she has learned that caring for a person requires a partnership, a journey to wellness that involves nurturing each dimension of well-being, including physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual components. By caring for all aspects of health, individuals can experience a greater sense of purpose and fulfillment.

In 2010 she received her Master’s of Nursing at Florida Southern college. She worked in Internal
Medicine/Primary care for 12 years. The first 8 years were wonderfully rewarding by caring for those with limited access to healthcare. It was this experience that would drive her desire to guide others on to the path of wellness. This begins by meeting people where they are and working with them to develop a personalized approach that addresses their unique needs and circumstances.

In 2017 she attained board certification and completed a fellowship with the Anti-Aging and Functional Medicine society (A4M) and then in 2020 she completed a Master’s in Integrative Medicine at the George Washington University (Washington, D.C.).

Over the last 3 years she has been on a spiritual and self- healing journey, seeking to understand the effects of childhood traumas as well as healing herself.

This case is a personal testimony of her family members and their experience with the LIFESYSTEM. We hope it provides encouragement and expansion to think outside of the box.

This case study will address the external influences that can affect low functioning autism.
