    He said it forced him to live in complete alignment with his values. But his values changed a lot. Before he ignored his body's needs (which is a value, a negative one). And he grew to valorize his body and totally respect it's needs and that is a wonderful value to have and live by.

    Bullet points to took from interview with David.
    1) write your negative list and your positive list.
    2)do the basics really well. Sleep, diet, morning routine, night routine.
    3)Take the complications out of your life.

    36:32 "I have to be in a bit more pain in order to be able to achieve this part of my goal"
    I hardly ever relate to any recovery story, but this one is SO ME! This is the exact approach that I've chosen for my recovery too.
    I'm writing this sitting on a recumbent bike, which I use for cardio training. I'm finishing my today's exercise, and I don't like it 😅 I was so tired after work. But I know I need to do this in order to get better and better, and to eventually escape this illness.
    I'm at 80% now and I aim to go all the way to 100%.
    Including my gut struggles 🥴

    I am so glad you interviewed David. I had the pleasure of talking to David back in the Summer and he was so lovely. I really wanted to work with David on my recovery but at the time I was eating high carb WFPB and I guess I needed to process if I could cope with a diet change first. He did say and explain that I didn’t need to change my diet but I think my intuition knew my diet wasn’t working for me and I wanted to change this first. In the last few weeks I have introduced meat back into my diet and stuck to a low carb diet. I honestly can’t believe so far the change. I have less pain, less brain fog and fatigue. I have also been working on my nervous system and feel at last I am on the right track. Let’s hope I can one day get back to running too! Thanks David for sharing your story and thanks Raelan for showing us all there is hope 🙏🏻

    Did David experience PEM? I couldn’t figure it out by watching the video

    • @regina6838
      @regina6838 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Not really. He said the first time ever he experienced PEM was after his first half marathon. He was in bed for 2 days.
      I think when he was house bound he didn't push himself. For example if yesterday he walked for 5 minutes his goal today was to walk for 5 minutes (not 6 minutes).

  • @masha1414k

      Running a half marathon isn't over-exercising your body. Many elite endurance athletes run 100 miles + per week, and they're fine.

    • @mrjackolanterns
      @mrjackolanterns หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      ​@@callum5752 Well, the word FINE is subjective, but if you look at running from a natural standpoint, running is designed in and of itself to escape predator's or to catch prey. Running 100 miles a week is definitely not natural and would, in my mind, most definitely fall under the category of "over exercising"...I think a half marathon every week for 65 weeks for a barely recovered CFS sufferer would definitely fall under that category too.

    • @callum5752
      @callum5752 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@mrjackolanterns If the body can recover well, and people feel good, then it is not over-exercising. You'd know if you get over-exercised because you start getting symptoms such as elevated heart rate, fatigue, brain fog, insomnia etc. You can google the symptoms of overtraining to see what i mean.

      Trying to understand what things in life were clearly too much of a stressor and making sure to adjust them.
      Ketogenic diet to improve mitochondrial health. This seemed to have started his body's self-recovery process.
      From there he started to reclaim his ability to move by pacing really -> walking without raising the heartrate too much. It took 7 months for him to be able to walk 1 hour.
      Brain retraining (retraining of the CNS) to retrain the body not to react over excessively to physical exercise.

    As usual with websites such as this guy has ; there are no prices ; which you can be reliably sure that it is extremely expensive, and therefore out of the range of possibility for a considerable percentage of people.

      People who’ve recovered and now help others are likely to open up share their personal stories. They usually have deeper insights because they’ve worked with others and learned a lot along the way...

      I use a coach and yeah she charges 190 an hour. Don’t know if it’s the same as this guy though. She uses dnrs Christian based. She recovered from a lot of stuff. I will say she does a group class every so often i think it’s about 300 just to get you jump started. I think dnrs has a group one too.

I meant that all of these last several guests have an agenda because they are selling something, and that something is expensive to the average person. In these tough economic times, the price for the coaching...courses etc is prohibitive for many people because they are not able to work.

    Keto diet helps for some but makes many far worse if you have low adrenal function it can make you very bad as it did for me. Another red herring.

    I wonder if he had dysautomia or more specifically POTS because he mentioned when his heart raced to 130 with very gentle walking he would stop. But seems like he was never really diagnosed with anything. Just told persimisstic things by ordinary doctora.
