Be Your Own Medicine is a self-paced mind-body recovery programme led by coach and former 13-year ME/CFS patient Rebecca Tolin. It’s a science-informed, no-pressure method built around neuroplastic healing, emotional processing, somatic practices, nervous system regulation, pain reprocessing therapy, and lifestyle reintegration. Be Your Own Medicine combines brain science education, based on Sarno's TMS framework, with embodiment and journaling practices. It's a gentle yet systematic recovery program for people with ME/CFS, Long Covid, POTS, IBS, migraines and other neuroplastic conditions.
