Are you suffering unexplained symptoms of fatigue, anxiety or pain and no-one can tell you why you got ill or how to get better?

Do you want to reverse your fatigue symptoms and reclaim your energy and vitality for life?

According to the CDC up to 2.5 million Americans are suffering from a chronic fatigue condition (that’s around 1 in 131 people!) and it’s increasing year upon year. We live in a world where the numbers of people suffering unexplained chronic diseases are beginning to bankrupt our health systems. Many are suffering debilitating symptoms that defy conventional explanation.

What on earth is going on?

This ground-breaking book, written by an award-winning practitioner, demystifies the many and varied symptoms of stress, trauma and unresolved emotion in the mind and body, which bridges this knowledge gap. Based on 25 years of practice as a therapist and scientific researcher, it describes, in simple terms, the latest research on the stress response and how it interacts with a sensitized brain.

In this extraordinary book you will discover:

What is the biggest but largely unknown determinant of health and longevity – by far
Why modern medicine ignores this and concentrates on symptom alleviation
How you got here – the past is always present in your survival brain
How a palaeolithic brain trapped in a 21st century body is maladapted to a life full of chronic stress
Why the stress response gets wired for threat so that it gets stuck
What tiny cellular component causes the sabotage of your energy producing machinery
What simple steps you can follow to reverse that program

I was 33 when a mystery virus knocked me over. I did what we all do – I carried on and worked harder! Within a few months it had deteriorated to the point where I was being nursed by mum. I couldn’t walk beyond a few yards, cooking and cleaning were beyond me and the anxiety was crippling...

What I found out during that time – and I had plenty of time if not energy – was to become my life’s work. As a university scientific researcher, I had the training and access to resources most people don’t. And what I discovered I have distilled down into the information presented in this book.

Emotional trauma from early life experience activates an ancient system to be hyper-aroused to the world around it. Anything that then triggers the same emotion in later life activates this system giving us anxiety, fatigue and/ or chronic pain which defies a purely physical explanation.

And Trauma is Common

I lift the lid on how the mind creates the symptoms largely through the down-regulation of the energy producing mitochondria in your cells. I show the fascinating truth behind this amazingly ancient process, meant to protect us when our stresses were very different to the ones we have today.

Many books have been written on this subject from either a scientific or clinical point of view, but this book aims to unify the psychology and the physiology using examples from my own life and the experience of my clients, in a way that unifies theory and practice towards a new understanding of chronic illness. By giving you information as to how you got this way, I also show you, with practical examples, how to overcome these issues using a variety of new body-based (somatic) therapies to help you change these subconscious programs and move on with your life. I firmly believe everyone can heal, and I have demonstrated this in my own life and those of my clients.
