The Importance of Purpose – for those with M.E., CFS & Fibromyalgia

As a Chrysalis Effect Practitioner, Jackie Webster understands the importance of each of the 8 Essentials Elements in life (as identified by The Chrysalis Effect) being addressed and brought into balance, knowing that every time one of the eight elements is addressed and explored it affects and benefits the other seven.

None is more important than Life Purpose. Jackie has found that for some, they have known from an early age what they want to do, however many have found that they have drifted into their careers, been bound by finances, duty, or by pure accident!

Being a ‘highly sensitive person’, as the majority of those with chronic exhaustive conditions are, can result in the person trying to survive in the wrong work environment, often where there is too much stimulation which comes at a price in terms of their wellbeing. However, being strong-minded Type A personalities, they often stay in unhealthy positions for longer than they should.

Creating the right environment to thrive in, to have enjoyment within, is key to recovery. This applies to those able to work and those in Phase 2 (crash) who are presently bed-bound or house-bound and wish to return to work in the future.

One of the questions clients often ask Jackie is “How do you discover what your Life Purpose is?” As a Wellbeing Coach, Jackie has many tools and techniques to unlock the answers her clients have within themselves. Supporting her Recoverers as they look at the parts of their jobs that energise them, the parts that fatigue them, the things that make their souls sing can be incredibly productive with many ‘lightbulb’ moments. She will help her Recoverers check in with “Are you expressing yourself fully without frustration? Are you doing what makes you happy? If there were no obstacles in your way, health-wise or financially, what would you love to do?”

When it comes to moving forward, how can you if you don’t know where it is you want to go?
Life Purpose – creating that compelling future to step into, goal by goal.
