Spiritual Awakening - Expanding Times Fireside Chats
Our values and beliefs colour our vision and perception of the world. They determine our actions or inaction. Thoughts affect feelings. Feelings affect behaviour. Behaviour produces results (or the lack thereof). It all begins with our thoughts, since we have to accept a thought for it to become a belief. And a belief is simply a thought we keep thinking with enough emotion and intensity to make it stick. ...

Today's podcast covers the 'thorny' topic of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome! Although I'm sure many people must have suffered from it in times long gone by, as there was no diagnosis it undoubtedly went undetected or unidentified. So to bring some clarity to the topic, I invited a wonderful lady, Margaret Lambert, who you may have heard me interview before talking about the Emotional Freedom Technique, to come back and share her expertise. She was a long-time sufferer of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue in the 1990's which then propelled her to write a highly acclaimed book...

When I asked today's invited guest, Sahaja Coventry what qualifies her to talk so knowledgeably about, and work so intimately with, addictions, she said without hesitation "My addictive personality!" Go figure! Well at least she's honest...I think we all have an addictive personality in some way, shape or form if we're truthful, and it can get quite obstreperous if most of us are not vigilant, discipled and hyper aware of why we're doing what we are doing and what feelings our addictions to even seemingly innocent pursuits, such as reading, shopping or maybe even gossiping are trying to...
info_outlineToday's podcast covers the 'thorny' topic of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome! Although I'm sure many people must have suffered from it in times long gone by, as there was no diagnosis it undoubtedly went undetected or unidentified. So to bring some clarity to the topic, I invited a wonderful lady, Margaret Lambert, who you may have heard me interview before talking about the Emotional Freedom Technique, to come back and share her expertise. She was a long-time sufferer of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue in the 1990's which then propelled her to write a highly acclaimed book about her odyssey, "Longing to Live ~ Journey with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia."
According to the Mayo Clinic, "Chronic fatigue syndrome is a complicated disorder characterized by extreme fatigue that can't be explained by any underlying medical condition. The fatigue may worsen with physical or mental activity, but doesn't improve with rest.
The cause of chronic fatigue syndrome is unknown, although there are many theories — ranging from viral infections to psychological stress. Some experts (and Marg very much concurs with this opinion as you'll hear in our interview), believe chronic fatigue syndrome might be triggered by a combination of factors."
From what I understood from Marg in our call today, there is obviously a difference between fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome and yet there are many areas where the symptoms and treatments converge. So listen now as she shares her insights and recommendations for those of you unfortunate enough to have manifested either or both of these "misfortunes"... for as she says in the call, we have to find the gift within the challenge ~ whatever it might be.
