Many people living with fatigue are doing a lot…
and still not seeing the progress they hoped for.

Often it’s not about doing more —
but understanding what your body actually needs.

We created a short quiz to help you make sense of what may be contributing to your fatigue 👇

Comment QUIZ and we’ll send it over.

I don’t think I would have got through the past couple of months without this set up.

Recently I shared some of my ongoing healing journey and how I had come into contact with some long locked away anxiety. I have been working through some very young and anxious parts.

Having somatic tools that help me have been an absolute life line in continuing to function.

I have a bolster and yoga mat in my office and bedroom.

I would wake up in the morning, feed the cats and then sit in my bed with this set up listening to some gentle music, crying and letting my system settle.

Then again at lunch time and again before bed and really any time of the day I felt that I need it.

As with all nervous system tools, you have to find the ones that work best for your system. This is something we help you do in the Nurturing Resilience Membership.

Well I didn’t see that coming…

The start of this year did not go as planned. With the best intentions for grounding and self care, my nervous system decided to take me deep into the next energy well (IYKYK).

It has been one of the most emotionally difficult periods for me to navigate. Everything felt like it was going wrong - broken car, broken laptop, broken cat, broken passport application, broken tap - the chaos of my outside world mirroring the turmoil of my inner one.

Old symptoms of PEM and exercise intolerance returned. Capacity reduced.

And yet, I made it through.

And now, I get to hold others more deeply in their process.

If you are going through a tough recalibration right now, I see you.

What cannot be felt, cannot be regulated.

Get curious. 💚

This is your opportunity to be a fly on the wall of one of our group calls from the Nurturing Resilience Membership where we focus on supporting your Nervous System as you navigate recovering from Chronic Fatigue and other Energy Limiting Illness.

In this episode of the Chronic Fatigue and Burnout Recovery Podcast we cover topics such as using yin yoga for emotional processing, discharging survival energy, finding purpose in life while navigating recovery and how to create stability as you navigate the inevitable ups and downs.

Can be such a minefield, big expense and a waste of money when it comes to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and other chronic illnesses.

I definitely wasted thousands of pounds:
❌ taking things I didn't need
❌ taking the right things at the wrong time
❌ making "impulse buys" when in a crash or a flare
❌ trying to chase too many rabbits at once and catching none
❌ guessing instead of testing

Here is a brief summary of how I like to approach supplementation with my clients and some guidance for smaller budgets.

What questions do you have about supplements?

This week on the podcast we do something a little different. We share a recording from the Nurturing Resilience Membership where we focus on supporting your Nervous System as you navigate recovering from Chronic Fatigue and other Energy Limiting Illness. This is your opportunity to be a fly on the wall of one of our group calls and if you want to take part yourself, you are very welcome to join the Membership and get involved. We cover topics such as using yin yoga for emotional processing, discharging survival energy, finding purpose in life while navigating recovery and how to create stability as you navigate the inevitable ups and downs. 💕

Not all Post-Exertional Malaise (PEM) is the same.
In clinical practice, there are often three distinct physiological patterns behind what people label as PEM.

When someone says, “I get PEM,” it is important to explore what that actually looks like. Swipe through the slides to understand why different crashes happen — and why pacing must be individualised. ✨

Julie had been given a diagnosis of long-covid and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) with little guidance and millions of supplements.

She was taking Valtrex for symptoms of EBV reactivation and this was helping her get through the day.

But her energy was still low. She needed to pace, limit her activities and was susceptible to Post-Exertional Malaise just thinking about exercise.

Julie worked with Anna in her 6 month 1-1 Functional Medicine and Somatic Support Package.

The virus may be gone.

But the signalling can remain.

Recovery isn’t just about clearing infection.
It’s about completing resolution.

Not fixed pathology.
An adaptive state.

And adaptive states can shift.

Inside the Nurturing Resilience Membership, we focus on the foundations that help your system move from protection → repair:

Nervous system regulation

Blood sugar stability

Sleep & circadian rhythm

Gentle pacing

Inflammatory balance

No force.
Just physiology supported properly.

In this episode, Anna explains how Post-exertional malaise (PEM) differs from everyday fatigue, explores emerging insights into energy production, inflammation, and stress responses, and discusses why “pushing through” can be harmful. She also reflects on what this research means in real life, and how it can support safer pacing, validation, and more compassionate approaches to recovery.

When cells downshift after infection, it can feel frightening.

The fatigue.
The crashes.
The sensory overwhelm.
The sense that your capacity has shrunk.

But mitochondrial downregulation isn’t random failure.

It isn’t laziness.
It isn’t deconditioning.
And it isn’t fixed pathology — it’s an adaptive state.

When cells perceive ongoing danger — inflammatory, metabolic, or neurological — they prioritise protection over performance.

Energy production reduces.
Output decreases.
Tolerance narrows.

Not because your body is broken.

But because it’s trying to prevent further damage.

The work of recovery isn’t forcing energy production.

It’s creating the conditions where cells feel safe enough to upregulate again.

That means supporting:

- Nervous system regulation
- Inflammatory balance
- Blood sugar stability
- Sleep and circadian rhythm
- Gentle, structured pacing

Inside the Nurturing Resilience Membership, this is exactly what we focus on — rebuilding capacity through foundations, not force.
