It didn't require any active persuasion from me. They simply sent me a text asking me to book my vaccination. I'm 30.

How do you measure that? What does the diet entail?

I listened to the audiobook. The appendix has a series of short, guided exercises. They are not exercises which you can use for routine guidance as they are only around a minute long each, but it is enough to learn about different techniques. I experimented with a few until I settled into a...

Completely anecdotal, but I read Breath by James Nestor roughly a month ago. Since then, I have been working to optimise how I breathe. I have also been doing long meditation sessions that focus specifically on breath work. I have been meditating for years, but what I am doing now are specific...

I did a little reading on this yesterday. My understanding is that it's very difficult to do placebo-controlled trials of HBOT. Sham treatments cannot mimic the impact of air pressure changes on the inner ear and the participant is very likely to know they are in the placebo group.

I just woke up to discover this near the top of the Guardian website. I don't visit the forum much and was only vaguely aware that something was going on. I just wanted to pop in and say that I am in awe of the work you guys have done. To build this from the ground up when you're all so...

Is anyone else starting to feel a creeping sense of terror or is it just me?

I’d like to think we are reaching a point where our is history is no longer a useful guide to our future. Perhaps that is just wishful thinking, but i need some hope.

In the above thread, @Jonathan Edwards said (my bold): Could this be the "something going on in the brainstem"? If so, I find it very exciting that we're beginning to connect tangible abnormalities together.

Naltrexone works fantastically for me. I went from being almost as sick as Whitney Dafoe to using my laptop several hours a day, listening to audiobooks, sitting in bright rooms, and holding prolonged conversations in a matter of weeks.

Merged thread An interesting story about a man who recovered from a mystery disease that I am sure many of you will find very familiar. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/sep/20/i-cured-my-own-mystery-disease-experience

Chiming in to add my voice to the chorus of disappointment. I think Marco is probably right; I think they believe they are taking a pro-science, anti-populist stance, despite the loud racket being made by respectable voices in the scientific community. The only columnist who I have seen write...

I saw it too. The question was about how children with ME are often taken away from their parents as a response to refusing to undertake GET. As you say, May did not know about the issue and promised to look into it.
