On The Mend is a recovery-focused programme founded by Harry Boby, a long Covid and chronic illness survivor. The platform offers a blend of structured recovery resources and community interaction. Its flagship programme is a 7-day crash course that combines daily practices, bilateral stimulation exercises, and somatic movement. The approach aims to help people shift out of chronic illness patterns and reconnect with their body’s natural healing capacity.

7-Day Crash Course: Daily sessions delivered online, including guided bilateral stimulation exercises and somatic movement techniques.
Focuses on reducing fear-based patterns, increasing a sense of safety in the body, and building resilience through gentle physical and sensory activities.
Emphasises that it is not traditional brain retraining or “nervous system hacking,” distancing itself from some other neuroplasticity-based courses.
Includes ongoing community support through the platform for shared learning and encouragement.
