Chronic Fatigue

Chronic fatigue can affect anybody at any age.

There are a host of symptoms associated with the condition, including severe and debilitating fatigue, painful muscles and joints, disordered sleep, gastric disturbances, poor memory and concentration. 

In some the effects may be minimal but in a large number, lives are changed drastically: in the young, schooling and higher education can be severely disrupted; in the working population, employment becomes impossible for many. 

For all, social life and family life become restricted and in some cases severely strained. 

People may be housebound or confined to bed for months or years.

It can also lead to other conditions such as depression, heart disease and - cruelly - insomnia.

The stress relieving properties of Beeja meditation as a treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome/ME  make a big difference, and the energy boost we obtain from every meditation session allows us to be much more functional.

It enhances the immune system and begins to correct any imbalances we may have. This could be a factor in helping us to overcome the condition. 

It also brings balance to our hormones levels and raises endorphin production, so we feel less overwhelmed by everyday challenges.

While we are recovering, it gives us something really positive to focus on and provides an outlet for growth in our lives, which will bring much-needed joy even during periods of low energy.

Our physical capabilities may be limited, but there is a world of unbounded expression that awaits us.

As a result, there is far less frustration and anger with ourselves and the world, and we can appreciate its beauty and its subtle layers of intricacy.
