• CFS Recovery: Dealing With Your Partner, Friends, Family, Children and Work
    Jun 13 2024

    How to deal with your environment while you have a chronic disease, such as long-term COVID, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome), Lyme, etc. I know this can be a real struggle. What should you do with all of the expectations and disappointment of letting people down while learning about your condition?

    In this podcast, I discuss strategies for managing your work, colleagues, friends, partner, family, children, and yourself effectively. What are the common pitfalls to avoid and what are the recommended alternatives? Managing these relationships carefully is extremely important. You don't want to lose all your friends, for example. You need to find a middle ground in accepting your own new circumstances while at the same time dealing with many others who might rely on you.

  • Fall Asleep And Relaxation - Guided Sleep Meditation for Insomnia and Feeling Wired
    May 16 2024

    Stress, in any form, makes falling asleep harder. This guided meditation helps you relax and calm the mind. By connecting with your body and your breath, you will send a message of safety to your nervous system. This will enable you to transition into the rest and digest mode of your nervous system, making it easier for you to fall asleep. Chronic stress makes it more difficult for the body to maintain a healthy sleep pattern. Using this guided meditation and relaxation session, you will experience a shift in your stress levels. After a while, the body gets calmer, and falling asleep becomes easier.

    The hypnosis method from this guided session will make it easier to switch off your stress mode after each time you have done the session. You won't have to use the session only for falling asleep; it can also be a great tool for relaxation in general. You can also use this prior to any visualization exercise due to the calmer brain waves from the parasymptotetic state of the autonomic nervous system. This state will allow you to connect faster with the subconscious mind. I wish you a good night's sleep.

  • Finding The Root Cause Of Your Symptoms - ME/CFS - Long COVID - Fybromyalgia
    May 9 2024

    Behind every symptom is a stressor. It is my job to find the underlying stressor that is causing your current symptoms. I'm not interested in your pain or fatigue from yesterday, but rather in your current symptoms. Your symptoms could include pain, vertigo, grogginess, or depersonalizations, among others. Each stressor is activated via triggers. Without knowing it, every situation you involve yourself in can trigger a stressor that is already inside you. If we find the underlying stressor, we can increase and decrease your symptoms on demand.

    Many people assume their symptoms to be pathogenic, such as parasites or toxins. These kinds of stressors can also cause symptoms, but they won't allow you to experience good and bad days. These kinds of stressors don't cause you to have fatigue and pain that you experience in a condition such as ME/CFS, fybromyalgia, adrenal fatigue, or long COVID.

    Join me on an adventure with this podcast, where I explain how to find the underlying stressor, how to activate it and make you experience an increase in symptoms, and how to eventually release the stressors.

    Enjoy the podcast and I hope it will change your perspective.

  • How Fast can You Heal From A Chronic Disease? - Long COVID, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fybromyalgia & Chronic Lyme
    Apr 12 2024

    One of the most common questions I receive as a health coach: What is the timeframe? & How fast can I heal?

    This podcast is the long answer that I can give. It can take 10 days to recover from a chronic disease such as long COVID, chronic fatigue syndrome, fybromyalgia, or chronic lyme. (The list of new labels is growing.) It depends on you, your resistance and your willingness to dive into the underlying stressors. Eventually you need to change your way of being, the way you treat yourself, dealing with boundaries and emotions, and everything else that makes life.

    Enjoy the podcast and I hope it will change your perspective.

  • Trusting life for healing, flow and abundance
    Dec 21 2023

    We completely rebranded into a new program, name, logo and website. Release is basically the essence of what we are doing. After speaking with close to a 1000 different people with a chronic disease we understood everything much better and developed effective tools to prepare and release symptoms and stress whenever symptoms are surfacing.

    This podcast is about stepping into the flow by trusting life and therefore letting healing happen to you instead of fighting for it. Can abundance, health and joy really come when we step out of the way?

  • Turning symptoms on and off - fatigue / pain / mindbody
    Sep 29 2023

    Turning your symptoms on and off might sound ridiculou and I never would have believed it in the beginning of my own journey. This podcast is about applying tools to release the underlying stressor that is causing your brain to freak out and create intense mind-body symptoms. This counts for syndromes such as ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, back pain, and even vague symptoms such as migraines, tension headaches, etc.
