The Chrysalis Effect. Helping you to see the whole picture with regards to fatigue, burnout and pain related illnesses like Long covid, ME, Fibromyalgia.
Last weekend Myself and Healther spent a few wonderful days in Whitby. The weather was very changable to say the least! The video pictures were taken at the same place, all within a few minutes. Yet, as we looked in different directions, we saw different views. There was even a photographer on the beach taking pictures of the waves. He was so focused on this, he did not notice the rainbow.
This reminded me with regards to health, how we need to look around us, consider the whole picture and sometimes change our focus. For example, if we just looked at our illness from a medical perspective, a problem focus, or evidence based focus, we may see a very different picture than if we looked from a social, psychological or environmental focus.
The more you focus on one thing, the more you will see it but the less you will see what is around you.
The Chrysalis Effect Program regularly encourages you to look holistically and consider your illness from different perspectives. More and more we are hearing that a biopsychosocial or lifestyle approach is helpful when dealing with conditions like ME, Fibromyalgia, CFS and long covid. Have you got in a rut and forgotten to look around you? How could you change focus?
With warm wishes
