Thank you for your messages - some really useful stuff. Just to clarify - the model is that for example an original trigger event, eg a virus causes very reasonable responses which set off the fight and flight. The fight and…"
Michael Ellner replied to Gareth Sammer's discussion Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"Hi Michelle
A disease is called an autoimmune disease when it's caused by the body's own immune response against its own cells and tissues. Chronic inflammation is common example of too much of a good thing. The initial response is…"

Michelle Braun replied to Gareth Sammer's discussion Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"Hi Jenny,
When working with clients regardless of presenting issue, I do not see any benefit in using a set protocol due to individualism. Having a very big toolbox is a hypnotist's/nlp-er's biggest asset. Knowing how to use all the tools…"

Yoga would likely be too strenuous at this point- but only if the person has not been active though."
Eric G. Schneider replied to Gareth Sammer's discussion Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"I read this post with a great deal of interest and agree that they should be working with a "functional" medical practioner to help them with replacement where ever possible and while there are some things that can and could be done, I…"
Michelle Braun replied to Gareth Sammer's discussion Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"First I'd recommend the person seek out a complementary medical practitioner for the thyroid replacement assistance. They may also look into natural metabolism boosters (foods and supplements). A really good source for that is droz.com or…"

Welcome to HypnoThoughts Gareth! Glad that you could join us. I built my practice in 1989 by teaching workshops. Self hypnosis was first and it grew from there.
