It’s so rare to actually see someone put specifics like this in a free video - kudos on doing this!!
You are welcome Neal, yes I agree, more than happy to share more information like this on Raelan's channel in future. People need to know how to heal!
@@ICanThrive thank you so so much 🙏🏻
@@katenewton9994 You are welcome Kate, have a lovely weekend!
Free video is not without rewards taking in account many views and getting rewards. But generally, there is no free cheese in the world unless family members are giving it. Whatever can be sold, will not be told. I think the greatest benefit from this is to see that it is possible to recover from CFS. I hope this is a possibility at least. Thanks
Hi I am currently working with Jay and I made huge improvements. From bedbound 24/7 unable to go 10 steps to the bathroom (when I had my first call with him I couldnt even hold my head for more than 2 minutes) to right now chilling after 3 hours long photoshoot in a hotel room planning to go to pick up some food for the editing (I am a photographer), currently on 2-3k steps a day. I am still recovering and experiencing ups and downs but I just all want to let you know that Jay is an amazing, kind, smart and gentle guide. His programm is great but his leading is the best. He really wants you fully better. Especially at the beginning when you feel like there is no end of the suffering he is bringing so much energy and light. 🌟🌟🌟
Well done Terezie!!! and thank you so much for your lovely kind words
Amazing sharing Therezie! My wife is also same as you were with added sound and light sensitivity, can’t almost look at screens. How did you manage to do brain retraining in that state and how fast you saw results from that starting point of yours (rock bottom)?
@@ruigalhoz4188 yeah I had to wear that thing for sleeping on my eyes 24/7 my sensitivity for this whole world including my own existence was horrible. 🙈 I just did my best, everyday, small steps move mountains (my favorite quote from Jay). I was so desperate that I just did it, couldnt look at screen so I just listened and I had to listened with big breaks. maaan when I think about it I have no idea how I managed. But there are so many people bedbound with all the kinds of sensitivities and they all manage somehow the beginning. No matter you pace its about the intention and determination to do everyday something even a smallest bit, would love to help you more but thats it. I think I was out of this state after a month. But some improvements came quickly after a week or so.
@@ruigalhoz4188 wish you wife full healing and and an amazing future life 🤍 I am 100% sure she can make it! There are so many amazing programms. Liz (healing with liz) just today made a big rewiev of 22 of them I am not sure if Jay is included but you can read some summary to your wife so she can decide what sounds good for her and start her own journey. ✨
Thank you so much! I do believe as well she will recover, we are pondering working with Jason too!
They should have called it Chronic EXHAUSTION Syndrome. It ain’t just simple fatigue. They did us no justice calling it fatigue.
Raelan, I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time to make these videos.
I'm so glad you find them helpful, Warren. Thanks for taking the time to let me know :)
I suffered constant abuse at jobs bullying etc and my body finally broke down.
Wow! Thank you…I’ve been sick now for over 14 years-essentially my sons entire life, and I’m a single parent. 😢
I’m not even through the whole video yet and I know this is the answer I’ve been praying for. Thank you (crying tears of joy). ❤️🙏🦋
Energy flows where attention goes 🙏🏾
This video brought me to tears with renewed hope to reverse all these terrible things I've been dealing with. I was only diagnosed last year and only had the effects for the past few years but I'm so thankful this popped up because now I know I can beat it!!
I first met Jason when I was training as a Lightning Process Practitioner.
He recovered with The Lightning Process and had trained as a Practitioner the year before me and was mentoring new students in London, including me.
I wish him well now he is using the techniques he learned in his LP training to practice independently.
Six years later I am still an LP Practitioner and am so happy that we are able to help people get well with Long Covid now.
There were no recovery stories when I became ill (decades ago); these are amazing stories and so inspiring!
also: I visualize swimming in warm, healing ocean waters! Beach!💛 What a great interview and i am experiencing genuine healing! Thank you both!
How are you now?
This sounds like cognitive behavioural therapy, which I can see would work. You get so caught up in feeling ill, the hopeless of it that you are in a constant state of stress. You feel so lonely as everyone else gets on with their lives, which exacerbates everything. So I can see that to pull yourself out of the negativity and the stressed state of your body recovery could happen. Thanks for the ray of hope.
This was perfectly said, thank you 🙏
What a great video. Thank you so much Raelyn and Jason.
I remember laying down for meditation during my worst months, and many times I would get back up and feel lighter, like my body was literally stronger. Visualization works
So now are u fully recovered?
It would make me worse. I don’t get it…
Thank you for this interview! 🙏
Wonderful!
Great video!!!!
thanks to both!
Well done! Thank you!
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love seeing other people healing using these tools! This is my FAVORITE topic!
Thanks for this Jason - you are a CHAMP!!!
Super important that you're sharing this
So important. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome as aleays Raelan. Hoping soon I’ll be able to share my story too.
Love your videos, probably the best channel on chronic illness
Thank you both for this great interview!
It's so so so encouraging listening to this and knowing, things really can change. Looking forward to experience this as well!
Blessings from Switzerland
Thank you for this
Wonderful interview so full of information. I wish I knew all this 20 years ago.
Today is a new year, new opportunities and it will be better than the last.
It will be my 4th yr with severe ME/CFS and Ill be joining a brain retraining program this month.
My hope is ill comment again this yr to let you know I'm fully recovered.
Let's Go 2023!!!!
Thanks for all the vids.
I hope so
Awesome Chris!! lets make it happen!!
How much is it? I can’t see the price online. Also my fourth (AND LAST!!!) year 🙏🏼
Give us an update..
Please do let us know if it's helping you. 🙏
What a wonderful interview. Such a positive force for recovery!
❤️🙏🏼❤️ Great channel!
Ty...for this video
Great video! I just started my brain retraining journey a little less than a month ago and the points he made are what I am implementing in the program I’m doing. I loved hearing the research studies. Our brains are amazing and I can’t wait to be a recovery story! ❤🎉
Glad it was helpful, Logan!
Hey - would you mind sharing what programme yous re doing? And how it is going - thank you :)
Thank you for sharing stories like this, it is so encouraging! Seeing how beautiful & glowing you are gives me hope. I appreciate your work immensely. My prayers for all who are suffering--we will get better 🙏
Excellent interview, thank you Raelan
Mind over matter. Our brain is most powerful.
Thank you!
You're most welcome!
Great interview, thank you.
Thank you for your lovely feedback Maja, have a great day!
Glad you enjoyed it, Maja!
Thank You So Much! This is such an awesome thing you are doing. My Son has been dealing with this for a while now and he sent me this and it is so easy to understand, no extra, just straight to the point. Thank You!
Wow, yet another wonderful interview and success story. Thank you!
Thank you Alexandre, great to hear you enjoyed it! have a lovely day
Glad you enjoyed it, Alexandre!
I love everything about this video. Thank you!!
The MOST ENCOURAGING recovery story yet!!! Awesome! I CAN do this! I am confident and at peace!
Thank you, this is so incredibly helpful!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Raelan, YES to visualizing for skiing!! I’ve used it in the past for performing at my dream music venue, favourite artists (one almost happened so far), and I healed myself from major vocal issues including severe pain and inability to eat, drink or speak. Anything is possible. 💕
This is incredible!!
What a godsend. I now know i have me/cfs and know what to do about it. Its been 8 looooong years
Love your vids and much appreciation . Your audio is so much louder than quests .I don't mind turning up and down on my volume Thu out listening . Worth it to listen.🌺
I'm working on improving that, thanks for the feedback Roberta!
I remember Jason in a recovery group from year ago. I also did theLightning Process eight years ago. Glad it had an amazing results for him 😊
Did it help you?
This was incredibly helpful thank you so so much 🙏🏻🌞 brain retraining often feels so overwhelming and confusing and you just made it so simple ❤️
Do you do it and does it help?
@@santeenl I only saw it yesterday but ok going to try! 🙏🏻
AWESOME … thank you
Thank you too!
Thank-you Raelan and Jason.
I resonated with delaying brain retraining for such a long time. But found it helpful so far xx
What programme did you use?
Thanks!
Much appreciated, Jose! 🧡🧡
step 3 visualisation. Do you visualise the same thing each time? Or is what you visualise dependant on the thing you stopped in step 1? Thanks for your fantastic videos. 🙂
I just wanted to let you know that I've learnt so much from your videos. Whenever I'm having a rough time I just stick on one of your videos and it reassures me that I can do this
Hi Alex, I'm so glad to hear that you are finding these helpful! Thanks for taking the time to share that and wishing you all the best with your health journey 💛
Same here. The vidéo was right on time. Thank you Raelan for your work. ❤
Thank you so much Raelan for the wonderful interview, excellent questions, I hope everyone enjoys and benefits from the interview. Wishing everyone big success in your healing and health in 2023! ❤
Thanks, Jason, for your time and all the helpful information you shared here today!
@@RaelanAgle You are welcome Raelan! always a pleasure sharing 😀🙏
Thank you for sharing your story! The info you shared is just one more step in my determination to heal. May the Lord bless you as you continue to bless others 🙏
@@PaperclipProphets wonderful to hear you enjoyed this Angela!! YES you can do this!!! have a wonderful weekend
@@ICanThrive Thank you again! I hope you have a wonderful weekend as well 🙏
I have in long Covid for 7 months, and I started meditating and QiGong on and off a month ago. And that + acupuncture are the only thing so far helped me ❤ thanks for sharing
How are you doing now ?
We ❤ Raelan 🤍🧚🏻♀️💫
Raelan is such a godsend isn't she!! such dedication with her interviews, sharing so much hope and inspiration!!
Aw you are so sweet, Jane!
Yes we do! So appreciative for what she does xxx
Bedankt
Thank you so much, Karin!

Thanks Raelan and Jason and kudos to you, Jason, for describing the nuts and bolts of basic re-wiring. It is knowledge that really should be in the public domain. I have a question for you, Jason: How much does your program cost? I couldn't find this info on your web-site. Thanks again, Barbara.
Look up the program of Daniel Van Loosbroek :) It uses both brain retraining and emotional and Somatic work. The price is based on donation 🙂
About $2200 USD. I did Jason's program but it didn't help me at all so I finally gave up. I agree with the above comment to go with Daniel Van L's program. It addresses the core issues much better than regular brain retraining programs do.
Thank you for this amazing interview. The last days I was deep down wiht my emotions, full of doubt with my recovery. I asked gott to give me guidens and now I see your video and Im full of hope aganin, amazing. The world needs more lovely people like you bouth. A lot of kisses and hugs to you bouth 🙂
Thank you German, I remember praying for answers as well and I am very glad you found this inspiring!! you can do this!! this is your year! kind regards Jason
@@ICanThrive Thank you Jason for your kind words.
What should a person do if they cannot visualize, please?
Just found you. Ty
Raelan, I second Warren Thorp’s appreciation that you take so much time to put out these videos. I have a question on another note. I see and hear that you are recovered. And then I also hear you list all the many things you are doing: work, exercise, social, and these videos which must take massive amounts of your time including interviewing people to be on your channel ahead of the video interview. It sounds like you are going gung ho all over again. Do you not worry about overdoing it again? You are a lovely, lovely woman. You glow. And you help so many people; no wonder you are glowing.
Hi Gail! Thanks for taking the time to share this and check in on me. I think that is so incredibly thoughtful! The truth is I do worry about burnout and it is something I am slowly actively working on addressing. It's a process for sure!
@@RaelanAgle Do we need to remind you? No really, I have wondered about this more than once. Would you talk to us about your experience with cold showers. Did/do you take an entire shower cold? Or do you start warm and change into cold? How cold? The coldest? Is somewhere between warm and cold acceptable? And did it really help you when you were sick and took cold showers twice in a day?
Thanks Raelen, always enjoy your videos. I’ve been dealing with long Covid for the past 8 months. Have tried two of the more well known brain retraining programs and unfortunately it just hasn’t helped much. I really want it to work and I believe that it can work but for me it just didn’t help much. Curious to hear from others out there on their experiences with brain retraining. Thanks and happy new year.
It doesn’t work for everyone because it’s more of a “top down” approach. Perhaps you need a “bottom up” approach like somatic experiencing or EMDR. Top down therapy is like CBT or talk therapy (using your “thinking brain”) while bottom up therapies focus more on the body.
@@rachd4794 Does the Programm " only" have top down exercises?
@@kirstensuhr7094 I’ve only tried DNRS so I can’t speak for the other programs. The bulk of what you’re doing is telling your brain it’s okay in response to stress. It’s an hour practice everyday where you basically have a script and you’re repeating mantras. There are other little exercises that perhaps may be a little bottom up, but I would say it’s mostly using your “thinking brain”. But top down therapies are necessary and helpful, but for some people, more is needed. I personally don’t think the programs are worth the money, but some people like the guidance and the community it brings. It just depends on what your brain responds to.
Also some people with long c*vid have success using psilocybin. It does boost neuroplasticity. You could try microdosing if you're not up for a trip yet.
Have tried micro dosing with some positive results. Will continue to experiment with this. Thanks.
I wish the guest would tell us if they got POTS from viral or other ? Would be helpful and what exact brain retraining program the guest them selves stated with. Thank you
I am just trying to think on this good advice being unable to visualize any situation where I could feel safe or relaxed. Is there any way I could work towards desired outcome gradually? There may be many like me while affected by CFS unable to lift up to positive experience. Thanks
How long should we be doing visualizations each day?
I love this! What if your stress response is every time you get up and try to walk? mine gets activated like that. I would have to do that 50 times a day. Does that sound about right? I’d love more info on this program. Thank you!
The same here.
Besises CFS, i discovered i have also something called like HIBERNATION syndrome. Like a Russian family who was hibernating during winter, when at those times for some people winter was a time where food was not to be founs. I found in internet a story about a Russian family who had genetically a hibernation gene, if you could say that this way.
In my case i finally understand this.
It starts in mid september, until may.
In this period i feel so stressed when i have to wake up or someone wakes me up. I have to get up, but it was from baby age, up until now.
It felt horrible.
It is strange, but when i have this period starts, i feel it in my arm muscles. It feels like someone injects me with something in my veins and my muscles. Sticky/heavy/warm.
It sounds crazy i know...
My CFS started in the summer months when i had that summer 3 ticks on my belly ( red rashes 2x from 2 different ticks at that moment ). My mom removed it with toilet paper. Very quick. I guess this besties vomited their content in my body only by feeling panicking!
No antibiotics or doctor or desinfecting.
That same period i had also Pfeiffer disease.
After i had Pfeiffer ( during and after being cured more or less, i slept all day long ).
From there on...my life ended in a way at 12 years old.
I am 51 years old now.
Hell...
But yes, waking up is so much stress for my body, heart, brain. Racing heart and feeling horrible and my heart does not easy come down. Exhausting.
Among a plethora of other symptoms and so on.
I hope we all will find a way to cure us all.
Such an incredibly sad story. 😥
I hope you find something that helps. 🙏
I am not much placebo sensitive.
I inmediately know if there is nothing in it ( a placebo ) and something in it.
Very glad of you're recovery. 🙏,.. Im dying. I had a traumatic life altering change in my life, im not accepting well. I have no will.! No will to live. That should be a prerequisite. I have very bad Depression, anxiety, insomnia, Anhedonia etc. I don't want to die,... but this condition is killing me. I don't do anything, go anywhere... I've lost all interests.... pls 🙏 can anyone? anything help me.??!!
I’m going through something very similar to you for years. I can say I’ve had close to full recovery a few times but crashed multiple times and am in a crash for a few months now. I believe we can recover, just need to find the solution.
Very informative video. I would like to know how much does Jason’s online course cost as there is no information available on the website.
Hello Paul, great to hear you enjoyed the interview, I am more than happy to share the cost and everything that is included with you, you can arrange a free chat with me on my website.
Glad you found it helpful, Paul!
I agree it would be good to see pricing first to see if it's affordable before booking a chat.
Yes me too, it is a lot of energy and effort oto go through to realise you can’t afford it
I was interested in some similar programs after watching interviews like this, but every time there is no price ,and no matter how good an impression the person has left, I just feel like I can't trust the program 🫤 At least some basic options with prices would be helpful and then if you want more coaching that can be open for later discussion... They are dealing with people who probably haven't been able to work for quite some time, after all.
However, I really enjoyed this interview 😊
I feel sleepy every day I can't take care of my kids and everything takes alot effort to do.
Great viideo, how do I get hold of Jasons details please ? Thanks WIll
There's a link in the show notes under the video. Wishing you all the best!
Can brain retraining help people going through withdrawal off of prescribed benzodiazapines. Many people are still suffering with debilitating symptoms years after being totally off the medication. By the way, during the withdrawing the symptoms are extremely terrifying and no one seems to know why and doctors also done even believe that benzos cause withdrawal. Thank you for this amazing program today.
How did you increase activity? Did you have any setbacks?
Relaxed and confident - this is the part - how does this translate into reality? Say running - yes relaxed and confident BUT you still need to move and tension comes etc?
There is a small percentage of people with a condition called aphantasia who can't visualize. We literally see only black when we try to visualize and most of us are born with it. All is not lost though when it comes to brain training. If you can't visualize, you can still think about, imagine or feel during brain training sessions. I overcame anxiety and now I'm working on overcoming long COVID without literal visualization.
Wow, this was so cool.
I will check out if you can help me!
What you said about it can feel hurting by thinking that it can be this easy and everything... I really understand that, precisely what I was thinking about. And the same with you who said that bcs u went 11 years was because u were skeptic.
"It is all in your brain. But I can feel all the physical symptoms"
So recognizable.
God bless you two and everyone who is fighting with this ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
You will be free from this!n
How can I contact you Jason?
Can this help in MND
Its because all of this is VIRAL. He has/had EBV but this kind of programs definitely helpful and healing
Gosh this sounds exactly like CIRS
Does the immune suppression from chronic stress allow for EBV reactivation? If so, can EBV become dormant without antivirals?
What if you don't remember what it feels like to be relaxed? Just visualize how you think it will feel?

Relaxation and confidence
(Stop, i want/ i believe...., visualize the want/belief - 5 senses)
Other:
I am safe, my body is fine, i trust the process
I think it's physical because in most cases, me included, it all started with a viral infection, but brain retraining can start the healing process which is impossible if you stay in your fight or flight. I guess meditation can be more effective than traditional medicine.
Definitely physical, but there is a commonality of trauma, either before the illness, or afterwards....including being treated unhelpfully by doctors.
For some reason there has been lot ME illness in my wider family. My experience is that most started to recover around the four year mark with or without treatment. They then attributed that recovery to the last thing they had tried despite how unlikely this was, causing the rest to copy without success! Recovery seemed to depend on how much opportunity the patient had for rest in their circumstances. I find it is only a progressive illness when there is no chance to change lifestyle to match energy available, leading to crash and boom.
I pray this will help me w/ vaccine injury. Two years sick and no medical help
So sorry to hear that.
Have you tried the program and has it helped?
What has it caused
I am a vax injured, too. Have you tried Jason’s or any other brain retraining program?
@@ildibarath8249 what symptoms has it caused fybromyalgia?
@@ildibarath8249 No I've not. I take a lot of supplements, pray and sit in the sun. Drink tons of water starting hbot tomorrow. I've come a long ways.
interesting -- i wonder if virtual reality programs could be used as a tool to help people with recovery visualizations
Wow I love this! I suspect you are on to something, Sarah :)
Yes absolutely! There’s a huge body of research on the benefits of AI with chronic pain.
What about when you have PEM though? Will brain retraining mean you can do more/reduxe PEM?
Artic Blast (DMSO) is a miracle of relief in a bottle for burning skin, legs anything.
Jason, I do not have ME/CFS. Does your program work for other types of brain caused issues? I have dysautonomia that caused IBS, profound insomnia and a number of other symptoms. This began after injuries, illness and much stress in my life.
Brain retraining works for a hypersensitive nervous system (which is what ME/CFS is). I will work for the conditions you've listed - and many more, including chronic pain.
The Brains Way of Healing deals with serious conditions like Parkinsons etc.
@@mewilcox3653how can I do brain retraining. Where do I learn it?
❤
WHO use it for Lyme?
If you don't mind me asking Jason. How did brain retraining work for PEM?
Hello Alex, the essence of how my program works for PEM is 2 things: 1. We deeply relax the nervous system which given a little time naturally restores your energy and stamina, 2. I teach you how to become much more self compassionate rather than being a type A over achiever and pushing yourself too hard. Both of these are essential to fully resolve PEM.
What is PEM ?
@@dommccaffry3802 post exertion malaise. The exacerbation of symptoms after even very little activity
I like the long covid brain training idea at the end. However this isn't possible when the body is going through the allergic toneverything phase , or the blood pressure ,sugar drops,dehydration/ water retention issues, period problems, heart and abdominal palpitations, blood clots ,brain swelling etc.. any advice on this part of it ?
The way that I found to more easily except that the problem was in my head came to me when I realized that my brain hade a real injury and that even though the problem was in my head, it manifested in bodily symptoms....
This illness is not just " in you head" it is in your actual brain. Retraining is a logical step to me.
Did he had pots panic attack autonomic dysfunction
A lot of LP coaches end up leaving (including the lady who taught me). Interesting. I have my theories why they go it alone.
Hello Dom, yes I was an LP practitioner for 3 years in the past, what I teach now is a combination of everything I needed to make a full long lasting recovery that deals with all of the patterns and predisposing patterns. Wishing you a wonderful new year ahead!
@@ICanThrive thanks jason. Wish i'd worked with you instead. Nevermind. Happy new year.
Is visualization mandatory for brain training? Are there workarounds for those of us with aphantasia?
@@daniellelblackwell thank you!!! I was just thinking about that! How I can “imagine” (for lack of a better term lol) the feelings. I can feel the sensations without seeing a mental picture. That’s super helpful! Thank you!
I read ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia are on a spectrum, with ME/CFS having more fatigue than pain and Fibromyalgia being more pain than fatigue, but otherwise the same syndrome
That's probably older literature or some that is trying to balance a comorbid relationship or the overlap in many symptoms. Currently, PEM stands out as the defining feature of ME/CFS, but, like they mentioned in the video, the brain retraining isn't limited to one disorder.
Often when you hear stories about brain retraining people get better within weeks or a couple of months, like Jason. Is this the normal pattern? Am I doing something wrong if I just had minor improvement (but still some) after 2,5 months?
People often take a couple of years! Keep going
@@annaray6733 Thank you for the encouragement! ❤🙏❤🙏
