Van Life with Chronic Illness: Nurse's Bed Setup, Meal Prep, & Healing Spaces

Описание: Living van life with chronic illness means my tiny home has to function like a complete healing setup — bed, lighting, herbs, dog space and all. In this New Year van tour & apothecary reveal, I’ll show you how I redesigned my cozy healing space to better support EDS, POTS, dystonia, fibromyalgia, and chronic pain.
As a licensed RN and medically retired chronic illness patient, I’ve learned the hard way what actually helps my body calm down in a small space. In this video, you’ll see how I reset my van for the New Year, how I organize my mobile herbal apothecary, and how I make room for my service dog‑in‑training, Sagie, while still keeping things flare‑friendly and restful.
If you’re navigating chronic illness yourself, caring for someone who is, or just curious how van life can be adapted into a healing space, I hope this gives you ideas for your own corner — whether that’s a van, bedroom, or favorite spot on the couch. 💚
Stick around to see:
• New Year “healing reset” of my van interior
• How I set up my bed and seating to reduce pain and fatigue
• Sagie’s cozy therapy dog spaces
• My mobile apothecary and how I organize herbs, tinctures, and tools
• Calming lights, textures, and nature views that support my nervous system
If this resonates, hit subscribe to follow along as I keep tweaking this van for chronic illness — and start planning a brand‑new healing van build later this year.

👋🏻Hi, I’m Nurse TLC. I’m a public health nurse (RN for 20+ years) living with EDS, POTS, dystonia, and chronic pain — and yes, I live much of my life in a van with my therapy dog-in-training, Sagie. I blend traditional medicine with natural remedies and healing time in nature, because I’ve learned healing isn’t either/or — it’s both/and.
