Totally agreed with everything he is saying here. Last week I had a growth oriented PEM, followed by catching Covid again, and a week later (yesterday), a lot of stress with my building’s landlord. A day off to allow myself to chill and bring myself comfort; refusing to believe this is all a massive long term setback, and I’m back to all the right steps needed to do that in place (many are mentioned here). It’s temporary and that’s ok. I was supposed to start an online training this week (I did it before but it was a step to get back to work slowly). I’ll start two weeks later. No big deal, life isn’t over!!

Raelan it seems you were the catalyst to breaking your ancestral chain, you are truly a beacon of light ❤🎉❤ Now your lineage can thrive, ty for your values

I think these are easier to get a grip on once u start to see some small improvement. I was like your Mother Raelan, I had given up on everything after 20 years of CFS, until I found your channel. Sleep well ( as best you can) , Eat well, Move more ( gently and build up very very slowly) and healthy Mindset ( including calming down your traumatised CNS) . I heard someone say , not abt CFS, but it fits: "Sleep well, Eat well, Move more and Love more" ( Love ourselves more right !! as well as our loved ones )

It's not selfish, it's self honoring 💓

Thank you so much Raelan for all that you do spreading the inspiration! I thoroughly enjoyed sharing as always! Looking forward to sharing more.😀🙏

This is the first time during all the years that my son has suffered from ME, that I now have no doubt he will recover. All you say, communicate make totally sens . Thank you. ML Siv

Hi my name is Annette. I have been affected by M.E for more than 25 years. I have had immense support and acceptance by my husband. I was diagnosed in London but previously spent more than a year going through all sorts of exams and tests. I still struggle to focus and find it hard to take in all the details of your videos. I found you here about 3 weeks ago (yey) and love your content. I have tried so much and so many of your suggestions; would you be able to make a few short videos with essential and concise points please. I don't know where and how to start (again) to get better, physically and mentally. Thank you so much. I live in Europe.

I was just looking on Youtube earlier for more of Jason and then up comes a new video. edit: This was incredibly helpful, so grateful for you both

Very good interview and everything he talked about is so true!

This is GOLD! Thank you ❤

An excellent video, very special. Thank you both 🙏🏼🤗 Self care is so important. My therapist suggested that it might help if I saw it as avoiding self abuse by giving too much of myself. As I was also dealing with C-PTSD it put many things in context, especially the possible causes for total (including soul) exhaustion. It became apparent that self nurturing would be at the heart of any recovery of either condition. A lovely calm soothing and nurturing video packed with wholesome nutrients! ❤

Thank you. Needed that today. Losing momentum in my brain retaining even though it got me from bed bound to working part-time and living at 60-70%. Will rewatch this.

This is aweosme! Loved the tips. Thank you to you both.

Such an amazing video🙏🙏 Jason program has been life changing for me , forever grateful ❤️❤️ keep thriving you all🥰🥰

This makes a lot of sense!

What a phenomenal video!!! Thank you both so very much ❤

Good points. How can I relax and calm my nervous system please? Meditation doesn't seem to help much. Thanks for the good videos.

Go Jason!

I’ve been standing in my bare feet in the local park( grounding) it’s helps inflammation I’m not sure I its helping but I feel a little bit better,the first time my freind told me to try it and I don’t have a garden but at the bottom of our street there’s a few trees and grass,it was 1am and I almost had to crawl down there in my pj,s looking rough,half dead! I was barefoot ,hugging the tree praying to the tree to give me energy! The police went past me doubled back and asked. If I was ok ..O.M.G they must have thought I was mad I looked it !!..desparate for anything to help they nearly took me to the mental hospital!!!..I literally looked like a mad woman!😮 me to
