In this episode Anna talks about the difference between Post-Exertional Malaise, Crashes, Flares, Setbacks and the natural change in our output and capacity that comes when you are a human being. 

She gives a high level overview of what is happening in the body in each of these experiences, how we can learn from the patterns that we have and the support that is likely needed as a consequence.

She highlights the understanding that if we can identify our tendencies, it reveals information that will help to direct and guide us on our healing journey.

Hi, I’m Anna!

Online business owner since 2014, cat mum of two, ocean, food and chocolate lover, half mermaid, and CFS survivor!

I have more than 15 years experience in the health industry, a Masters Degree in Personalised Nutrition, and I am a fully certified  and Trauma-Trained Functional Medicine Practitioner with the Institute of Functional Medicine. 

Despite a lifelong interest in health, in 2016 CFS and mold illness turned my life upside down. 

Always the achiever, being unwell was not an option I was prepared to settle for. I committed myself to finding out what I needed to be well. It changed me as a person and as a practitioner, and it changed how I run my business. 

The fruits of my learnings are a combination of science, somatics, and neural-reprogramming used to help others overcome chronic illness and find their spark again!
