Especially if we don’t have access to groups or therapists and need to access regulation independently. I get into some chewy and fascinating avenues to unpack connection with Emily Humphries who works with a brand new, and radically accessible technique called Reset Clearing, originated by Angus MacLeod.She came to it through her own burnout at 40 and so specialises in energy illness, or ‘invisible’ illness, which is especially poorly understood by Western medicine.
