This group provides a space for participants to share their experiences and receive support from peers. A facilitator will be present to guide discussions, answer questions, offer mental health support, and suggest coping strategies.

Facilitator-Led Group (Long COVID)
In this group, the facilitator leads discussions and shares valuable research and information. Sessions 1 and 5 will be open for sharing personal stories and supporting one another. Sessions 2-4 will focus on topics chosen by the group, where the facilitator will present research and insights.

Thank you to everyone who attended our Q&A. The replay is now LIVE on YouTube!

Are you or someone you know struggling with persistent Long COVID symptoms like extreme fatigue? You're not alone, and we have crucial insights to share.

Our latest YouTube Q&A features Adam Brown, Physiotherapist and Co-founder of Cornerstone Physiotherapy, diving deep into the world of bioenergetics and mitochondrial dysfunction in Long COVID.

In this insightful discussion, Adam explains how disruptions in cellular energy production can narrow your glycolytic threshold, leading to that overwhelming exhaustion even with minimal exertion. But there's hope! He also shares incredible, actionable insights on how wearable technology (like tracking your Resting Heart Rate, HRV, active minutes, and sleep efficiency) can become your personal guide to recovery.

This is a must-watch for anyone navigating Long COVID or supporting someone who is. Get empowered with knowledge!
