Welcome to this week's video blog! This week we have one ofthose really obvious ones that for some reason we have only just got aroundto putting together for you! It covers the maladaptive stress response in ME,CFS and Fibromyalgi,a which is one of the critical theories underpinning allof the work we do in the psychology department at The Optimum Health Clinic. In thisinsightful video, Alex and Thora (from the psychology team at the clinic)talk about what the maladaptive stress response is, why it is so important,and what you can do about it.Also, one great way of helping to calm down your nervous system ismeditation, and you may be aware that we run meditation groups through theclinic, that you can join in via telephone. There are still a few places onthe next group starting next week.
