About

I’m Mary Hykel Hunt, writer, teacher and broadcaster on all things intuitive and in this episode, I interview yet another thinking disruptor - Jill Dunsford, who's going to be talking about her pioneering journey to recovery from M.E. or myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome. Even today, M.E. is an often misunderstood condition. 30 years ago, it wasn't even considered to be real.  In our conversation, Jill describes how she became unwell, going from being a fit and healthy squash- and tennis-playing 34 year old to someone who couldn't walk up a flight of stairs without resting halfway up - all in the space of just two weeks - and how she spent six years waiting for medical help, to no avail, until, one morning, she woke up and decided she was going to help herself. She writes about this journey in her blog, Me, You and M.E. - Discovery & Recovery - A Way Through (link below), where she describes how she began healing through uncovering what lay at the root of her M.E.  She tracks the discoveries that led to her recovery and how she changed her life story from one of hopelessness and despair to happiness, joy and a deep sense of well-being. Her story is offers insights into how we may heal, and perhaps not just from M.E. And as she says, "If I can heal myself, so can you."
