Hi, and thanks for taking the time to visit this page.

I’m Russell Stubbs and I’ve been a therapist and health coach since 1999. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, M.E., Fibromyalgia, and Post Viral Syndrome are some of the most misunderstood health conditions there are. You could visit 100 different websites and be given 100 different causes and theories for these conditions.

Even mainstream doctors and specialists are unsure of exactly what’s going on with these conditions. In fact I’ve personally helped a number of medical doctors from the UK and Norway, who were themselves suffering with ME/CFS, to recover their health. These people knew that mainstream medicine had little to offer apart from the usual C.B.T., Pacing advice or antidepressants and sleeping tablets to mask their symptoms.

The doctors that I’ve helped back to full health, not only got their health back, but gained a whole new level of understanding over a number of “mystery illnesses”.

In 2006 I trained with Phil Parker to become a Lightning Process practitioner and went on to become one of the first advanced level practitioners, running Lightning Process courses here in the UK and Norway. At the time I was one of the few Advanced level Lightning Process practitioners responsible for assessing new LP practitioners.

“It’s a pleasure to watch Russell bringing his energy, insight and humour to this important life changing work.”
Phil Parker – creator of the Lightning Process

The Lightning Process was just one part of my training, I’d also learnt and developed a number of other successful approaches over my years as a therapist. I found the best success rates always came from combining the most effective elements and techniques into one approach – ultimately we’re all different and I’ve learnt from experience that a one-size-fits-all approach is not the best way to work with these conditions.

After successfully helping hundreds of clients, I formalised this comprehensive approach into a combined training and one-to-one coaching package that I call the Optimum Energy Course. The training course can be attended either in-person or live online via a secure meeting service, making it accessible from anywhere, whilst avoiding the need to travel.

I’d like to tell you more about this truly holistic approach to health and well-being. I’ve made a video which outlines the development of the course. So if you’re interested in learning more and discovering how it could help you, please visit the website and watch the video.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is confusing.

In this video I discuss Chronic Fatigue Syndrome symptoms and the role that stress plays in maintaining the condition. This is one of the most confusing factors in Chronic Fatigue – the way that it starts in one way and then develops into something else.

It could be a physical stress.

Most people experience some form of stressor around the time that they start to develop their chronic fatigue symptoms. For some it’s a physical stress like a virus, bacterial infection, or maybe after an operation or vacination.

Or a psychological stress.

For others it could be more of a psychological or emotional stress that triggers the CFS. That could be due to one particularly stressful event or after a build up of stress in that persons life.

The theme is consistent.

These initial triggers or causes vary from person to person, but the theme here is consistent – the sufferers system is under some from of stress. Then over time it develops into a complex physiological condition affecting just about every bodily system.

Chronic Fatigue Symptoms cause more stress.

Then there is the added factor that the chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms themselves cause a great deal of stress. Losing trust in your own body and not knowing quite how it will react next becomes another factor in the stress – chronic fatigue symptoms – stress, cycle.

Reduce stress – Reduce Chronic Fatigue Symptoms.

It is possible to reverse this cycle, but It does take effort and consistency. We need to focus on reducing stress and bringing balance to the system in certain key areas. The areas that I have found to be most effective are (not so surprisingly) the same 3 areas that can be seen as the initial triggers – the physical, the emotional and the psychological.

These are main areas where we focus on making change in the course that I have developed specifically for sufferers of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, ME, Post Viral Syndrome, Adrenal Fatigue, and Fibromyalgia. You can find more details about this approach to recovery at The Optimum Energy Course.
