In this video, I speak about how you can feel more embodied when you have symptoms. In particular, the ideas shared in this video might help someone who struggles with becoming hypervigilant when they pay attention to the body. I also share ideas about how you can get some distance from thoughts if you notice you are living in your head a lot.

I'm not a medical professional; this is not medical advice or mental health advice. Seek help from your primary care doctor or local services if you are concerned about your health or mental health.
On this channel, I speak about topics related to Long Covid, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and similar conditions. I found the work of Dr. John Sarno and Dr. Howard Schubiner really helpful, in particular the books The Mindbody Prescription and Unlearn Your Pain. I also found Internal Family Systems (IFS) approaches useful for helping me learn how to become more aware of emotions. Dr. John Sarno, coined the term Tension Myositis/Myoneural Syndrome (TMS) - a condition in which unexplained medical symptoms are underpinned by repressed emotions or psychological processes. His work and the work of his colleagues have helped many people including those with chronic fatigue and chronic pain.
