  I'm Lauren. The sports car - check. The flying all over the world for work - check. The thinking the next thing I achieve would make me happy - check. Fibromyalgia - check. I'm also following the RESET program and, after watching this video, I canceled my gym membership. I also quit my job at the end of 2018 to start my own consultancy (which comes with its own challenges, naturally) and I'm dealing with the unknown of being a startup a whole lot better than I was dealing with being employed and am much happier than I have been for a very long time.

  I did a course with your company 5 years ago, a year before I got an official diagnosis from the NHS that I have got CFS.  I recognise the room you are filming in.  I went through a divorce last year so I related very much with Lauren's relationship problems.  I got rid of my lazy selfish husband so that I could concentrate on myself and my 2 children.  I've had a relapse so searched on YouTube for Alex Howard to see if there was any fresh material.  Soooo glad I did.  I'm loving these interviews, they've made me cry buckets.  Truly inspirational, I'm very grateful for these free realife therapy sessions as I'm able to relate to all of the patients and am taking much from them.  Feel more hopeful I'll get out of this relapse.  I truly admire all that are participating and sharing their stories you are a true inspiration.  Thank you Alex Howard from Kate of Dorking, your old stomping ground (I read your book) x

  What is an incredibly brave lady to share like she has done I don’t think she realises how much that has helped so many of us overachievers x

  Ayurveda says Pragnyaparadha which is crime against wisdom- we disconnect and do not listen to our body even though it is constantly trying to communicate with us. We are constantly looking for external validation to make us happy but I guess what makes us happy is within us. Thank you for this video 🙏

  Great video!  I've been a social worker for the past 16 years and just started my private practice (www.strongspirit.org) a couple of months ago.  Videos like this are very helpful for practitioners, encouraging and inspiring.  Thank you for your great work and props to Lauren for her courage and strength.

  Me too! Me too! Me too!  I relate to so many things that Lauren shared and is going though - so I feel immensely grateful for this session.  Lauren - you are a strong, brave soul  for offering yourself in this way and I feel so deeply grateful.  I cannot wait for the next session.  Oh, and the production was AMAZING !  Wow, you guys are really upping your game :)

  My husband has stuck with me through this cfs hell for 22 years now. He has to go do things on his own without me. I don't know why but he sticks with me and says he will not leave even tho the person he married no longer exists physically. We have been through some extremely hard times, I have been in some very dark places, and yet he has never even intimated once that he wanted to leave. Cfs has such a huge impact on personal lives, unless you have lived it, you could never understand how huge it is in so many negative ways. It is a terrible condition, u r like the living dead, thank you Alex for all you do - amazing !!
