Secrets
to Recovery is a highly inspirational and supportive M.E. recovery
group, run by The Optimum Health Clinic. It is based around fortnightly
sessions where patients whose recovery has been in some way helped
by The Optimum Health Clinic are interviewed about their healing
journey. To mark the two year anniversary of Secrets to Recovery,
we have published a book based on some of the most popular recovery
stories. Some of the stories included in the book are: |
Tim Tim developed M.E. in his late twenties, and was forced to completely stop work and see his successful career in media taken away from him. He had symptoms ranging from severe fatigue and brainfog, to muscle pains and dizziness. Tim shares in his story what he believes caused him to get ill, along with the keys to his recovery. Tim has recently set up his own “healthy food” restaurant in France, where he now lives a very active life with his partner. |
Sarah Sarah contracted M.E. whilst living in Singapore with her husband and three children. Completely isolated from her friends and family, she faced looking after her young children at a time when she was hardly able to get out of bed. Her story is an inspirational example of how recovery is possible in any situation, and shares the secrets of what she believes made the real difference. |
Paul suffered from M.E. for over three years as a teenager and was for long periods housebound and struggled to keep up with even minimum home tuition. After trying numerous different treatments, Paul was able to find the keys to his own recovery, which he shares in his story. Since his recovery, Paul has gone onto build a very successful career in film, and his first full length project is in fact the DVD which is free with the book. |

Linda contracted M.E. in her late 40s and suffered for 8 ½ years, at her worst suffering from completely debilitating fatigue and digestive symptoms and only able to sleep one hour a night. In Linda’s story, she shares what she felt was key in turning things around, along with the key role meditation played in her recovery. Linda is now fully recovered and running regular meditation courses for people with M.E. |
