The Raelan Agle Podcast 168: This is How You Turn Off Threat Mode for ME/CFS & Long Covid - Christie Uipi
Christie Uipi, the Executive Director of The Better Mind Center and a psychotherapist specializing in the treatment of chronic pain, anxiety, and depression. Christie is also a recovered chronic pain patient herself. The healing process was so profoundly transformational for her quality of life that she has dedicated her career to supporting others.
In this interview Christie talks about how chronic symptoms aren’t “damage” - they’re reversible threat signals from a braced nervous system, and they change when you lower threat and raise safety repeatedly (tiny reps like speaking reassurance out loud, softening that constant internal bracing, and expanding activity as a gentle dance)—addressing fear about symptoms and fear in daily life.
