    She is sooooo right. CFS is a curse but can also be a blessing, it made me face my trauma and many buried issues and emotions and opened the door to true healing. Emotional work is key for me in my recovery.
  • @yumzsid
    This is probably the most unusual interview on your channel Raelen, but it was absolutely brilliant. Every phrase this lady occurred rings true for me. ME/CFS is a spiritual disease, a disconnect of mind, body and soul. I've gleaned this much from your recovery interviews and books I've read, but this lady perfectly summarized it all!
  • @Sender1257
    Another great interview. I find it very interesting how their are so many different routes to healing - as a CFS sufferer it is confusing but offers a great deal of hope. I’m praying for the healing of everyone viewing and commenting ❤🙏
  • @evelinel.9827
    Thank you for this!!! I did everything brain retraining, mindfulness, meditation and went from severe (POTS, Fibro, IBS, Migraines, etc.) to moderately affected and some symptoms did drop off but I still was stuck with tons of symptoms but it wasn't until I started doing somatic emotional work (I was very emotionally repressed due to childhood emotional neglect) and working with the sensations in the body (somatic experiencing, etc. and found a great spiritual teacher (Angelo Dilulu, Simply Always Awake on youtube) that I really started to heal and the symptoms dropped off one by one. Took me time but it was so worth it!
  • @rupinderh01
    4:24 was hypervigilant, had hyper anxiety, had fear of not being good enough,i need to look after others before me, everyone more important than me 7:40 you become separated from your heart and soul, from nature etc. You have a need to be the good person and serve other people no matter what your own needs were, look after yourself first loss of internal sense of self-not knowing your emotions and needs etc . Trauma is something you internalise as a child, that gains energy within you, trauma causes fear- eg fear of not being good person or good enough. 14:00 animal in stomach eg tiger or squirell rabbit, animal in head-eagle or crow . usually animal in stomach is really really scared or hurt, head is nasty evil, the head is punishing the body cos its not behaving the way it wants to . You need to set up a conversation between these two animals, the goal is to learn love,, tolerance, and acceptance for each other, so that htey can be kinder to themselves. the 3rd animal has been watching the arguments betwn the head and stomach animal and acts like a mediator, and says 'you 2 better get on' now come on', 'what could you offer the other one' Realise you are a soul on this earth, you dont have to stress. 16:10 dont believe when other told you are worthless etc 21:00 deficiency,toxicity or trauma causes illness , psycho-neuro-immunology 24:00 emotions run every system in the body, dont underestimate their power to treat and heal, emotions are the glue that hold your body and mind together, your body IS your subconscious mind. If your sb mind is not well, then your body will not be well. If your sb mind is dislocated from its purpose, and its living in a state of high stress or trauma, then of course the body is going to be traumatised. I have to earn my place in the world, i dont deserve love just for being alive,i have to earn the love that i have, I'm not worth anything cos im not doing anything, i'd better start doing things (being productive, workaholic), but i get tired doing, but if i stop doing,i cant earn my love anymore.Its a vicous cycle. Its traumatizing for people with chronic fatgue to feel useless,cos they are the ones that normally do everything.
  • @trishcovich1923
    Absolutely 💯.trauma can be healed. My CFS is gone because of the practice of self-love which is for life. The practice of people pleasing does not serve me if it is given to people that hurt me or are unable to love back. At times I still struggle with loved ones but my tools always bring me back.on track. It takes a lot of courage to stand up for yourself when you're not used to it. I wish anyone out there struggling all the best. Fill your heart with love first from your higher self or you might call it, your soul. Much love, in health, mind and spirit, Love, Trish.
  • @a.t7406
    Only last week I said to myself that I'm starting to believe that this recovery journey has become a spiritual journey for me. It goes so deep and covers all these core aspects of live: (self-) love, kindness, forgiveness, worthiness, acceptance, letting go, becoming my true self...
  • @PCAGA2298
    My ME/CFS is post viral following the flu. I have 5 reactivated chronic viruses. I am SEVERELY ILL💙
  • @MarianneLandry
    Wow, I also grew up the eldest of three kids, isolated with so much hyper vigilance. And I grew up with very strict religious teaching. I love learning to align and listen to my whole being to be fully well and vibrate love, gratitude and health. ❤
  • @esthercave8111
    I got this disease as a born again Christian when I developed a bacteria whilst pregnant. I could hardly look after myself or my son. It was absolutely devastating. The suffering was extreme. My husband had to give up work to do everything. I missed out alot on my son's younger years but I never lost my faith. 7 years on I am still battling trying to figure out what has gone wrong. I am so much better but have set backs and flare ups and still get PEM. It's been a hard trial but I trust God with everything even hard lessons in life. I have learnt so much and have changed as a person. It is whole bunch of reasons you get this disease for me it was a bacterial infection being on anti biotics for nearly a year, trauma being a very stressed person for years. Never give up...
  • @legohouse4819
    As a therapist who has recovered from long covid I would love to take Jenny's course!!! How sad she has retired!
  • @BlackDogArtworks
    Every time I find one of Raegan‘s videos, I am surprised at how on-point they are. I sound like I’m talking to everyone but her, but to those of us who have this and are still struggling, these videos validate that this disease is… a disease, I guess. My triggers were two different types of breast cancers, diagnosed three years apart. I am now a grandma, and a full-time artist. Both of those things feed my soul added to my fabulous husband, two daughters, my mother and my sister, and my friends, which includes my dogs both past and present. I am incredibly lucky. I can sleep when I need to, and sit in front of my canvases and stare off into space when I need to. I don’t look like a suffer of anything. I am that outgoing, overachieving extrovert, who has been changed into a somewhat introverted person. But still, the person people see on the outside, when I am outside and not sleeping😉, that person is someone who doesn’t look like she suffers from anything. I know that makes it more difficult for people to understand this disease. Heck, I have this stupid disease, and I don’t understand it. But I’m getting better and I will continue to get better as I feed my soul and deal with the physical ailments. I will do whatever I need to. A personal thank you to Raelan❤ for making these.
  • @visionvixxen
    This CPTSD can not only come from narcissists but from misunderstood neurodivergence
  • @pamdenman254
    All of your interviews are wonderful but this one truly resonated with me. Thanks for all you do to help those of us who are dealing with CFS.
  • @philweaver457
    This landed hard. Felt therapeutic in itself. Thanks Raelan!
  • @liannevalle
    I agree with her 100%. 27:34 "becoming the person that people come to for their heart and soul, for their deep healing" - I felt this so viscerally in my body. She articulated exactly what I want when I get to the other side of this journey. Thank you for this interview.
  • @GoldandPinkLight
    After living with CFS for 20+ years I'm finally healing by addressing the exact things Ms. Lynn is talking about. I'm using various nervous system regulation techniques, Transformative Touch Somatic Therapy, Energy healing, sound healing.... putting that all together to find my way to feeling like a whole, worthy, soverign human being. As others have commented here, the Somatic work and releasing repressed emotions is CRITICAL.
  • @susanlynn6545
    There are so many different reasons for fatigue. Anemia, B-12 deficiency, feeling depressed or worn out from over-giving etc. 20:00 deficiency, toxicity, or trauma locked in the body. I would add or parasites, fungus, candida, mold exposure. Also living with someone who says demeaning or unsupportive things can definitely take away your energy. Some people are using alcohol or drugs, or sugar/ carbs cause low energy. A lot of people got their energy back and healed from a long list of physical symptoms when they went on a keto or carnivore diet. ❤️ ( Mateo said to not feel guilty about whatever diet makes you feel better because plants are just as alive and sentient as animals. ) ❤️
  • My knackered spirit says time for a lie down. Actually I am most happy when I am obliviously asleep hence why I think I mostly want/need to nap and also to try and heal but as soon as I wake up I feel that immediate jolt of anxiety as in oh no, I'm back here again in this realm of unhappiness and discord and the unhealing resumes.
