For this week’s main video, we have the latest in our series of videos from our nutrition department, this one is on Constipation, and is with Amy Pamment from our nutriton team. Constipation can play a significant role in ME and CFS. In the video Amy and Alex discuss why regular bowel movements are so important, and what we should all be aiming for!
Our second video this week is a recent interview filmed with Alex for Conscious TV about the role of meditation and yoga on his own healing path. The video is a great introduction to why yoga and meditation can be so important, as well as an interesting insight into an area of Alex’s healing journey that has not been talked about in much detail previously.
Next Secrets to Recovery meeting: December 15th 2009 , 7pm
Due to a number of requests, this call is specifically designed for those “caring” for someone with M.E. This ranges from friends and family, to partners and professional carers. If you are caring for yourself, the content of this call will also be key in learning how to treat yourself in the best way possible. Some of what will be covered includes: how to make sure you take care of yourself as the carer, how to understand what someone with M.E. often needs in different situations, how to find the balance between encouraging and pushing, how to understand what it really feels like to have M.E.
Welcome to this weeks video blog! We really are very grateful for all of the wonderful feedback on the recent youtube videos we have been doing with our nutrition team. To continue with the theme, this week’s video is with Tanya Page from our nutrition team talking about the role of stomach acid in M.E., C.F.S., and Fibromyalgia and why this very simple thing can have such a big impact on a whole array of symptoms. Tanya explains how our levels can be easily tested, and also how stomach acid problems can also be easily resolved.
For our second video this week, we thought we’d remind you about a simple but very powerful overview of the whole area of psychology and M.E. that Alex and Anna (Director of Psychology) produced in August this year. It has now been loaded into the psychology section of our website at http://www.freedomfromme.co.uk/psychology.html It is the best introduction to psychology and M.E. we have produced, and explains how treatments at the clinic compare to other treatments such as The Lightning Process, Reverse Therapy and CBT.
