Brain Training DEEP DIVE - Ben's Severe Illness Full Recovery Story

👉 ✅ Come join me in my new course! 🧠 Brain Retraining 101: For ME/CFS and Long Covid Recovery. Enroll now: raelan-agle-s-school1.teachable.com/p/brain_retrai…

I’ve been unwell almost twice as long as I was well (and I was anxious all my life). Now 69, it’s hard to imagine a bright future, but I keep going.

The brain doesn't know what's real or Imagined. So I visualise doing everything I want to achieve over and over. It's a great tool.

Indeed, God bless this man. He is such a blessing to everyone going through chronic illness, he has given me great hope for change. Thankyou.

I’m currently dealing with Lyme , mold, ebv, metals , candida , Hashimoto’s etc etc and I’ve finally gone down the brain retraining path. Today has been a very hard day but listening to this is making me hopeful that I need to just keep going and I will get there

This should be taught in schools, about the parasympathetic nervous system needing to be in a safe & optimal state.

Hearing about how the body regenerates itself is the most hopeful thing I have heard in a long time. Grateful for this!

Thank you very much for this information. Neurocognitive REHAB, to retrain the nervous system. Don't spend all of your time reading and researching and thinking about negative symptoms (: because that keeps your body in cortisol probably, fight, flight, freeze). Instead have a level of acceptance in what is right now and focus on adding things that make you FEEL GOOD, physically and emotionally, looking at things that make you smile and feel better. Little non strenuous exercises that help you feel better, take up a hobby, art, drawing, coloring, anything.... Listening to good podcasts, The Brain that Changes itself, etc

So basically, in every way possible, you just have to act like a healthy, healed person until it becomes a reality. Fake it til you make it.

This fellow has a great future ahead of him.

I have almost exactly the same story as this wonderful man and I could not agree more. Thank you for this channel it will help so many people to heal ❤

Hi Raelan, it is the most important recognition that we have to become researchers, true owners and caretakers of our bodies instead of relaying on other people, and we have the power to do so.

This is one of the best interviews!! He is very informative and explains everything so well. Thank you for sharing.

Wow, Ben seems to be a very educated and genuine man around this illness and I can see he is dedicated to help people. That's great! How powerful people are to heal themselves on their own 😱👏

I LOVED this talk ! BEN is exceptional. I've listened to many of your interviews but I appreciated Ben's info and delivery the most!! His ringing phone example ( it causes me panic as well ! ) of brain retraining is extremely helpful to me! 27 yrs very ill with CFS , POTS , ETC BUT JUST NOW finally able to hear that the ANS is at the core of much of this! I have lived in FIGHT/ FLIGHT most of my life so my new life / daily / hourly ... goal is to begin to calm my responses by reassuring myself I AM SAFE IN MY BODY AND IN THE WORLD. SSD 23 yrs , ughh, no finances for Ben's Program but I am most drawn to his , by far! Thank you Raelan and Ben !

Relatable. My 'straw' was march 2020, working frontline covid march 2020, and between nursing shifts to teaching zumba, NFP, hiking club, singles trips...never sick, not a drinker or "partier" and I was high on life! Never even got a a flu. I found out through the longcovid torture, I had EBV, Lyme, Mold toxicity, Metal toxicity, etc.....then when you were sick in march 2020 .....you got NO help since you were "still positive"....masks that make you more hypoxic, oh it was traumatizing and hell. I'm glad you brought up the childhood stuff as well. Thank you! Yes, all of this. <3 United in prayer

I have been working with a combination of grief, long covid, and TMS and have been full time for 20 month's and i keep getting symptom imperative, fatigue and dizziness and brain fog are the worst. Hoping to.take bens course next year my family needs the old me back better then i was before. 😢😢

So much of what he says resonates with my experiences. I also share the view that recovery is a matter of addressing underlying physical problems as well as detrimental thought patterns. I've come across a lot of CFS communities who maintain that since it's a physical illness the only valid type of cure will come in the form of medicines and discount any the idea that conscious and subconscious thoughts can perpetuate symptoms. Likewise I feel like a lot of brain-training recovery programs downplay the importance of getting tested for things like hidden infections, deficiencies and toxins and over-emphasise the importance of the mind-body connection. Ben's approach seems a lot more balanced and evidence based. I'm doing ANS Rewire at the moment though now I'm thinking of doing Re-Origin once I've finished with it.

The best interview I’ve heard on brain retraining and illness. Thank you both so much ❤

Wow. Ben’s experience and journey aligns in so many ways to my current 18month struggle with long covid and the accompanying reactivated co-morbidities. The little concepts of adding small wins and being overwhelmed by repetitive losses is resonated in struggle. This gives me hope and I’m just upset I didn’t see this a year ago. Thank-you!
