[INDENT]Hi,
Thought some might find this helpful its from Louise Hay's website....
CFS usually develops as a result of being disconnected from our emotions. Emotions are the energy that bridges the mind with the body. When we disconnect from this energy, we experience a lessening of life energy, which can eventually lead to chronic fatigue and/or depression.
This is a pattern that usually begins in childhood. At home and in society, many receive the message that it’s not okay to express certain feelings, such as sadness or anger. Women are especially taught it’s not okay to express anger or sexual feelings,. We suppress or “depress” the so-called unacceptable feelings inside us. We become cut off from our emotional energy and are left with a general feeling of fatigue and disconnection from life. As a result, we very often feel we’re “running on empty,” so to speak.
It’s important to know at least 80% of all autoimmune dis-ease occurs in women. Somewhere very deep within our bodies, there’s some kind of destructive message that needs to be revealed and transformed. To break free of this pattern, it’s helpful to establish a safe environment to reconnect with our feeling processes and begin to safely release stored anger, sadness, and other suppressed emotions. It’s highly recommended and important to contact a qualified professional as you go through this process.
Affirm: It is safe to express all that is within me. I love, honor, and accept all aspects of who and what I am. As a result, I am energized, expressed, and filled with joy!

Made me think that maybe if this was a big cause of CF then maybe something like Hypnotherapy may be a good way of finding out what these beliefs may be and then EFT I have read is a great way of releasing...

Hi Anna, an interesting post thankyou
Hi Rachel and Fleur,
Glad you found it interesting....looked it up for a friend who is getting over her CF...she seemed to identify with it.
She has like you said Rachel tried and changed everything about her life and she said one of the most helpful things was having a Soul Retrieval...she is doing so much better now...
Blessings,
Anna
Hello Anna,
Did your friend have her Soul Retrival done by/with somebody else or did she do it on her own?
Thank you for posting.
Angel Hugs

Hi Rebecca :nature-smiley-008:
Hows you? She had it done with this lovely woman called Motucki/June she is on HP and has a website
She did a Soul Retrieval for me too...I believe it really helped me, subtly but powerfully I just felt more whole...I decided it was for me cos I'd had so much trauma. If you go to the website go to Shamanism and then it has a sub-heading Soul Retrieval...
Love,
Anna
I am really interested in soul retrieval. Did you have to go to her or did she do it by remote healing?

My view is that CFS/ME is an energetic implosion. There are usually very powerful emotions that are not only not being expressed, but are very actively being repressed. Sufferers are usually intelligent and possessing a high degree of self-control. Emotions can only be repressed for so long - the system can only take so much pressure. People lacking in self-control might tend to explode into rage or violence, or fall into substance abuse or have a complete nervous breakdown. People with high levels of control don't allow themselves to do this. So instead of exploding they implode: the energy collapses inwards. In effect they end up with the energetic equivalent of the astronomical black hole: a well so dense that it sucks in energy from surrounding areas and no energy can escape from it.
The problem then is that in severe cases the sufferer tends not to have the energy to resolve the underlying issues, as what little they have is going into just managing to exist. So the requirement is for very gentle work over a long period.
It's good that Louise Hay mentions bodies and the physiological impact of suppressed feelings. The basic prinicple of body psychotherapy is that mind and body are completely intertwined, and what impacts one impacts the other. Psychological & emotional issues eventually manifest as disease or chronic poor health. Body psychotherapists work with both mind and body to allow natural and holistic healing to take place. Exploring this connection was very much a part of early psychoanalysis (from which counselling & psychotherapy derive) and its forebears. This kind of approach should have been commonplace, except that Sigmund Freud got cold feet and abandoned it. So we ended up with 'mind-only therapy' as the mainstream approach, while body-centred methods have spent most of last 80 years being marginalised - although they have been very influential on current holistic therapies (most of which have their roots in western body psychotherapy + eastern philosophy & energy techniques.) But you didn't ask for a history lesson, did you? So I'll stop now!
NOT all in the mind
When I read some of the well meaning answers about Chronic fatigue, I must admit I get a tad angry. All this talk about repressed emotions and problems with your personality? Having had CF for 25 years I know that all this psycho babble just sends people up a disappointing and fruitless cul de sac when it comes to getting well, and an expensice cul de sac at that. Yes, I am sure that some folk have psychological reasons for their illnesses, but not that many. I believe that this illnes - and mine started with a virus, have a real pathology, that is, something has gone wrong physically/chemically/hormonally with your body. When people start suggesting that you can get rid of CF by Talking your way out of it, I find that an insult.
Would you try and give a Talking cure to a person with cancer or heart disease? hardly, for that again would be a huge insult. Of course I am not saying that some form of psychiatric or indeed spiritual help is not needed, for those things can sooth the mind. BUt they are NOT cures. After reading the book FROM FATIGUED to FANTASTIC, I discovered that lots of CF sufferers have some from of adrenal failure. THis Definitley affects the emotions, and can cause great depression, but the depression is a RESULT of the sickness and NOT the cure. Adrenal failure can be well ameliorated by taking DHEA, one of the main adrenal hormones. Possibly by needing cortisol, and theN attacking candida, which is often the undiagnosed but real culprit for many ills. Diflucan is an expensiv drug, but can be bought on the NET to takkle this.
KInd regards Archer
As a precaution after the last post, I'd like to add that I think that unless the CF sufferer is suitably qualified, self prescribing DHEA and Diflucan is not a good idea. Diflucan is contraindicated in some cases, so buying without getting professional support is not recommended. Other authors have different opinions about the taking of adrenal hormones. For example, adrenal fatigue or adrenal exhaustion may be better helped by treating the causes and supporting the adrenals to recover their own function. If there is a medical reason why the adrenals can't recover their function, then any replacement of the hormones needs ongoing professional prescribing and monitoring.
Archer - Its a big subject, but if you would like to exchange information/experiences on adrenal fatigue/exhaustion by starting another thread, count me in. 🙂
