A new design for living

I found this book to be enlightening and plan to take the free companion course. There us hope

Outstanding

This is an outstanding book: It is very well organized, empathetic, engaging, & helpful. Every exposure I have to Alex Howard’s work leaves me more & more impressed. He consistently exceeds my expectations & over-delivers (in the best of ways). The fact that he has included a free companion course is so typical of how he operates! I am so thankful for Alex’s work, his dedication, and his genuine empathy. I wish I could thank him in person.

UNA LUZ DE ESPERANZA

El autor nos lee su propia experiencia con la fatiga y como le fué posible conquistarla. Se trata de una propuesta comprensiva, amable, inspiradora y posible para llegar a tener la tan anhelada energía.

More helpful than any practitioner I’ve seen

Alex knows his audience. He understands their personality traits, their symptoms, their fears. He understands fatigue and the many things that can make us feel fatigued. He breaks down recovery into 12 steps and I can’t wait to start his free companion course and start on my healing journey.

I'd given up hope - this book includes Long COVID

After years of life-shredding fatigue and pain, I was recommended this book by multiple people the Curable app's pain Facebook group, who also have fatigue. I got it in audiobook, read by the author, and it both gives me hope, and makes me wish I had known about it years ago.

The author healed from chronic fatigue, and then set up a UK-based fatigue center, and both experiences are obvious! Over years he's developed, tested, and refined theories of fatigue, first on himself and his colleagues, and then with patients. He is clearly both a big picture thinker and one who sees the individual, without getting his pride involved. (In fact, he lays that out as a practitioner red-flag in a section that by itself is worth the book.)

He's identified broad patterns, like the most common personality traits that are linked to fatigue conditions (with great empathy and not judgment), and how to adjust our thought patterns. I recognize all four patterns in my life, and can already feel the internal space from applying the lessons. (I plan to listen to his podcast to keep it front of mind)

He is upfront about how individuals are different, and gives examples of how those atypical patients can navigate and advocate for themselves.

Hope!

Finally, a detailed plan of action, hope for those of us suffering from CFS/me or fibromyalgia. Easy to listen to, easy to follow, easy directions.

Could have been 30 minutes

This is rather long and drawn out for not a lot of information. The way things are said pretty much anyone in modern society could diagnose themselves with cfs by reading this book and can help themselves. Its written to fit like a horoscope. There are better actually in depth books out there or resources. Try Hubermann lab podcast.

Also some things are wrong in the book. Like the mechanical definition of stress and the term probiotic. The definition given was for a prebiotic.

Its narrated and written well.

It was okay.

I had really high hopes for this book based on reviews. As someone who has suffered with chronic fatigue and mysterious health issues for years now, I often look for new ideas and information. Unfortunately, most of what I heard in this book, I already knew. There was not much that was new to me or helpful in my case. I also disagreed with the author's promotion of eating animal products. This might be a good starting point for someone new to these chronic health issues, but if you are one who already reads and researches a lot, it may not be helpful for you.
