Toby - this is excellent. I'm sure it will help a lot of people! The way you explain it really helps me to know where I am and see that I am making progress -- little by little ;)
Glad it helped Tomi! So glad you’re in the program and making these changes and doing the right things for you that feel right! Keep up the great work! 👏🏼👏🏼
This is great Toby I got my first employment pay check earlier this year... I've worked here and there for myself more recently in the past 17 years. It was great to work as an employee alongside others in a work environment. I did this during my solo road trip around Australia! I got pretty wobbly toward the end but am on track again and going for a job interview tomorrow. Thankyou for all your help along the way. The getting back into life stage is quite the challenge. Life integration as you say. 💜 Congrats to you too Toby on your ongoing recovery and your thriving value based business and the positive difference you make in the world through the lives of others. XXX
Just done a reflection about how people may have influenced you in your life. Without your thought of helping people around the World following your recovery from CFS. My life would have been very different. I am so very grateful Toby for all your dedication, hard work and commitment to the CFS world. Emma Ratcliffe, LI.
Thank you for being so understanding and helpful with your advice and it certainly makes me feel better that there are other people who are going through this illness aswell
Hey, Toby, just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your kindness so graciously. Truly, God bless, mate. I look forward to watching more of your videos on the channel - it's been a challenging few months, and I am honestly really grateful and appreciative of all the help I can get. Thanks so much again, and have a good one, mate 😃❤️
I guess i'm on the opposite spectrum where i've been high functioning, constantley pushing n crashing for the last 18 years and NOW my body totally refuses even to want to engage in life anymore on the physical level but psychologically i'm in the opposite frame of mindset where I now want to live and enjiy life not just survive, I want to thrive and have the opportunity to live my life fully...This contradiction was the other way round for so many years between my mind n body where I was struggling mentally n emotionally and yet my body was always on high gear...This is extremely taxing on ALL levels...🥴
@@Mandance child trauma and conditioning...Bringing balance into opposite extremes has been a journey of a lifetime only NOW I am starting to feel calmer waters, less resistance and somewhat deeper faith things always work themselves out...Worry takes away my ability to traverse through challenges successfully, losing my balance, reasoning ability and focus...This is where I am 9 months on after working on 'Surrender'...Reserving my strength to live rather than fight life!🌸
@@yasminkausar5186 very good progress! That is exactly the thing and it sounds like you’re on the right track. What would you say helped you the most in letting go of resistance? I find I have a lot of resistance to feeling bad or depressed etc
You cannot fix your gut health is your body is stuck in freeze or fight or flight and many people with these issues have complex trauma and can not ever be in a relaxed state, so the stomach can not heal in that state.
Hey Blake! We respect our clients privacy. Some want to share their stories publicly which we share and others prefer to get on with their life and keep their life private.
Toby your videos are wonderful and inspiring. I have just been struggling with CFS/ mitochondria dysfunction for about 10 weeks. Your program sounds so inspiring. But physically I am in such a poor place, still trying to get some sort of baseline. Do you have any advice regarding how I can build my physical strength vis a visit supplements etc. My mind is in shambles bcoz I was the pillar of the house and to be in this position s crushing my spirit. Can you please help me, I'm really desperate.
It gets so much better the more you let go, slow down and start doing things that light you up little by little. Toby's program is powerful in a fundamental way.

Last time I checked world wide 4/1 ratio women to men. Not just in our program but general population. A lot of women mid 30’s to 50s however we have people as young as 15 in our program all the way up into 70s. We just had a lady complete our program who was 55 years old, ill for 16 years and is now living life fully again. She’s free, happy, health focused and can be a playful grandma again.
This isn't helpful because there are clinically established levels of CFS and to tell stories of people hiking for an hour is so far out of the grasp of those who have serious cases of CFS as opposed to moderate to mild. I can brush my teeth and raise my heart rate to close to 100bpm and half an hour after flopping back in bed with my wrist and arm screaming my heart rate remains the same. The one hour hike is not going to be a realistic goal for me, and hearing it as an example makes me realise this person was a mild case at best. Five years in and I'm going down hill, and not up. I live with suicidal ideations almost every day, so the 1 hour hike story is just a slap in the face to us who are truly suffering, and not wishing to hear about others hitching their wagon onto what we live with. I have days when my fibromyalgia goes off the scale and walking out to the letterbox and back leaves me in agony during the night while I attempt to sleep through it. The peripheral pain is soul destroying. Then there's the CFS pains, and other associated symptoms. I cannot relate with much of what you are saying at all.
Despite all the beautiful stories. If you really have ME/CFS then the chance of a cure is very small. Just ask people who have actually had ME/CFS for many years and have tried just about anything to get better.
Why? I ask this because I have 3 surgeries behind me and a 4th coming up next week and the surgeons STILL cannot locate the hole in my inner ear/ sinus where the leak is coming from.
Agreed. Only people with anxiety / depression or general tiredness can recover doing such programs. Real M.E is a very serious immune/neurological disorder that requires real medical help and cure.
@@AlbaLynxQueenits funny that you say that beacuse there really is no set ”cure” or path to ”recovery” for M.E/CFS patients within the general health care system. Doctors have very little knowledge on what it actually is and what is causing it.
I am struggling myself alot with burnout and chronic pain and chronic fatigue along with other ailments such as social anxiety and depression and sinus and guy issues and feeling weakness in my body. However i still think people can get better and that i can get better. Why not? People are able to recovery from the most brutal injuries and illnesses there is. Thats how our bodies are designed. To keep us alive and to keep us healthy. As for CFC/ME as i understand it, its not a one size fits all. People might experience it for different reasons or someone elses main factor for it might be different than the others. Most likely there is not a one single cause, but its a matter of a stress overload for a significant period of time that has caused the chronic fatigue as our bodies way of saying no, what are you doing, i can not take this anymore. Its our bodies boundary saying enough is enough and it is there for a reason to protect us and ourselfs. Thats why a hollistic approach is always best; sleep, diet, getting out of fight - flight (nervous system relaxation) are probably the main things to focus on in the beggining. Working on personality patterns such as being more assertive and being less of a people pleaser is also important. Setting too high importance on always doing things and achieving stuff i also feel like is a clear path to exhaustion too, beacuse it gets your whole body out of balance. Emotional regulation, Somatic practices that gets you out of your head and into your body (releasing trapped emotions, becoming more present, moving out from mind dissociation). Journaling and Meditation i find to be helpfull sometimes. Allowing myself to feel my emotions and that my emotions wont kill me. Then of course you can work on targeting more specific things too such as supplementation for vitamin deficiency and to check your hormones and what not. Overall by implementing all of these tips and techniques it would be impossible to not feel abit better.
why should you change your mind set if you were completely mentally healthy before the illness? CFS is the result of a very unhealthy lifestyle with chronic stress and therefore it is required that after the illness you change your whole life and attitude.

Very helpful! Ps. Please let Raelan Agle interview you on her channel so more people can find you and be inspired!

Great video.... really helps to remind me that this is a recovery JOURNEY - not a quick fix gimmick...
I can do everything, even going on vacations but just feel horrible nonstop.

Such a wonderful, positive programme. This video allows me to appreciate the stage I’m in.
And we love having you in there Judy! You’re doing great! Keep up the brilliant work!
Thank you for sharing this, I've just had a crash so feel like this video was good timing 😃

Very helpful Toby! Literally changing lives for the better
Thanks for making this video to help people. To have an understanding of this and give hope to people is - I'm not being overly dramatic - a lifeline.
I'm at stage 2, oh to be free of fatigue and pain.
How are you now?
How are you now?
Found your video helpful . Baseline first. Focus on health not symptoms.
Yes Lorri! That’s a good formula! 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you for explaining so clearly- it is so helpful.
Thank you ❤️ this video is such inspiring and helpful💙
♥️♥️♥️
Inspiring, thanks.
Thanks Toby this is really helpful 😊 I need reminding
Pleasure

So helpful Toby, thank you 🙏🏻😊🤗
Thank you so much! 🙏
Thank you! ♥
Pleasure! Glad you found it helpful!
Who's that Austrian rock climber you mentioned? Is their story published?
Hey Blake! We respect our clients privacy. Some want to share their stories publicly which we share and others prefer to get on with their life and keep their life private.
How does one know if its post viral, ptsd, or hormone related?
I dont think anyone knows...I'm constantly researching and find nothing : (
Well it’s ptsd if you can identify if you had trauma in the past, toxic family, abuse, narcissism etc

How are traveling Myrtle? Have you recovered at all from when you posted? I hope you have navigated to recover from where you were.

20:34 just a note that my whole life has been do nothing and that way I never fail . Which is not working for me
I've been doing the three rs for 7 years now. Bullschit.

So this video is basically an ad for a program you are selling?
Helping is a full time Job. Can t you just go to people who make commercials for the next Trend Shampoo?

Toby, you can estimate how many of your clients are women and men in percentage. What percentage and your clients are women?
Last time I checked world wide 4/1 ratio women to men. Not just in our program but general population.
