This is no small task. It’s especially challenging for doctors, scientists, academics, or others steeped in the belief that we can “fix whatever’s broke” or think our way out of an unfortunate situation. Symptoms are our body's way of saying something isn’t working anymore. Often, these symptoms have been going on for a while, but we’ve dismissed or overridden them with mind-over-matter techniques.Now it’s time to pay attention and suspend disbelief. The rational mind allows us to make sense of our discoveries, but it’s our leaps in consciousness that drive discovery.

How to Get Off the Couch

To be healthy is to be in sync with your inner and outer rhythms. Your organs have their own circadian rhythms, turning on and off at different times in a twenty-four-hour cycle and your days are governed by the rhythms of sunlight, among other forces.<ul><li>Eating</li></ul>The more regular, the better. A regular schedule allows your digestive organs and all the hormones involved in digesting, absorbing, and using food for energy, to function optimally. <ul><li>Sleeping</li></ul>Consistent sleep is necessary for energy and mental focus, as well as for detoxification, tissue growth, and repair.

Reset your inner clock.

Healing doesn’t occur in isolation. The people and environment with which you surround yourself can support your journey. But first, you have to open yourself up to receive. Let go of shoulds and should-not. And reach out.<ol><li>Find a practitioner you trust. </li><li>Talk with your partner or a close friend</li><li>If your energy is low or your brain is foggy, consider setting up a  rotating meal service, where friends and family can sign up to drop off</li><li>If friends ask to help, suggest practical things: grocery shopping, laundry, medication/supplement pick-up.</li><li>Connect with a support group for chronic fatigue patients.</li></ol>

Give yourself permission to receive.

Detoxify the house (and yourself)

This book is written by Cynthia Li, Who is a doctor but didn't find out the reason for her illness for that reason she has to suffer for a long time but at last, she finds our something and which is changer her life and for more people also.

In this revelatory memoir, doctor Cynthia Li shares the truth other doctors don't always understand and often won't share if they do-that chronic illness is complicated, and that treatment is not just a matter of test results and prescriptions but requires a more comprehensive approach. By sharing her own struggle with a disabling autoimmune crisis, which forced her to question her own conventional medical training and embrace the integrative principles of functional medicine, Li reveals the insider knowledge sufferers need to truly begin healing-mind, body, and spirit.
