This episode features Dan Neuffer, author of CFS Unravelled: Get Well by Treating the Cause, not just the Symptoms of CFS, Fibromyalgia, POTS and Related Syndromes.

Dan is the creator of the ANS REWIRE Recovery Program.  In this conversation, Dan and Anna explore the perceived dichotomy between 'body-mind' and 'physical' approaches to recovery from fatigue. They problematise the dichotomy in a conversation full of Dan's typically lively intelligence. Together, Dan and Anna frame body and mind as aspects of one lively system. They reflect on what follows from that framing for understanding fatigue illnesses, and on the practical implications of that understanding for process(es) of recovery.

Anna specialises in profound healing work. Her approach addresses all the layers of human well-being: body, mind, emotions and spirit. She works at all or any of these layers, depending on what her clients want and need. She has a longstanding personal knowledge of chronic fatigue, burnout and high stress environments and has overcome a very long history of MECFS.

Having had a successful career as an academic lawyer, Anna retrained in a range of healing modalities, including hypnosis and energy psychology. She is a longstanding spiritual practitioner and increasingly works with people in spiritual awakening processes such as Kundalini. She is a passionate input junkie with a daily commitment to staying on top of the latest health optimisation research.

The guest for this podcast edition is artist, fiction writer and academic, Professor Andreas Philippopoulos-Mihalopolous. In this edition, Andreas and Anna play with the theme of 'thinking-with-water', reflecting on how such thinking might shed light on the experience of fatigue — and the self — as a lived experience.  We reflect on the fluid nature of self, fatigue itself, and the transformations generated by fatigue. This is a richly multi-layered conversation full of exploration. Food for 'the mind' for those who want to taste something beyond fatigue-approaches-as-usual.

In this episode of the Fatigue Files, we hear from Mary Tutaev. Mary facilitates a Death Cafe in Bristol, England. She works extensively with the process of grief and its multiple dimensions. She has also suffered from ME/CFS. In this thoughtful conversation, Mary and Anna explore the various dimensions of grief as it emerges for those in the process of feeling that they are losing themselves in a chronic health condition. We also explore the newer self that emerges in the process of facing chronic illness.

Dr Sarah Myhill is one of the best known authorities on fatigue recovery and has worked extensively on ME/CFS. The Paleo-Ketogenic diet is a diet she has used for over 20 years to help patients reverse various chronic conditions, including (and especially) ME/CFS.  In this intensely practical conversation, she explains the advantages of this diet, its evolutionary appropriateness and the perils of eating sugars, high carbohydrate loads, dairy and grains. During this conversation, Sarah recommends four books, listed below.

Apologies for the sound quality on Anna's side of the conversation. She really wasn't speaking from the bottom of a bath tub, though occasionally it sounds like that!

Books:

Jane Plant, Your Life in Your Hands: Understand, Prevent and Overcome Breast Cancer and Ovarian Cancer 

Stephanie Senneff, Toxic Legacy: How the Weedkiller Glyphosate Is Destroying Our Health and the Environment

In this episode,  Anna Grear reflects on fatigue in relation to the 21st century's need for a new kind of 'I' apt for the complexity and challenge of the times. Weaving her own 'stark' journey from one kind of self to another in her own walk with ME/CFS, she suggests that those of us with fatigue simultaneously offer critique and hope to an exhausted world — that we are positioned to experience the emergent, complex 'I' now required if humans are to respond to the evolutionary shift underway in the pressurised present era.
