Be Your Own Medicine
Healing Chronic Pain, Fatigue & Mind-Body Symptoms
Ready for a breakthrough? Harness mind-body healing, somatic practices, brain retraining and a loving community to recover from the ‘incurable’.
Do you suffer from unrelenting pain, exhaustion, brain fog, migraines, anxiety, irritable bowel or interstitial cystitis? Maybe you’ve been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, insomnia or post-viral symptoms like Long Covid or chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). New science proves that neuroplastic symptoms are caused by the way our brain and nervous system process stress. Find your way to recovery!
Could you see your symptoms as a gateway to deep healing and personal growth?
We’ve been told that something or someone else holds the key to our health. As you’ve probably realized, the answer isn’t a touted herb, fad diet or short-lived injection. You have the power to heal inside you! Assuming you’ve ruled out other diseases with your physician, here’s conditions that this mind-body model can help:
CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME (Me/CFS)
long covid, epstein-barr & Post-Viral Symptoms
FIBROMYALGIa
TENSION and MIGRAINE HEADACHES
Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
POTS and orthostatic intolerance
fatigue, weakness and post exertional malaise
CHRONIC PELVIC PAIN SYNDROMES
Irritable bowel syndrome
interstitial cystitis and bladder symptoms
BACK PAIN, NECK PAIN, WHIPLASH, KNEE PAIN
REPETITIVE STRAIN INJURY
COMPLEX REGIONAL PAIN SYNDROME
HYPERSENSITIVITY SYNDROMES
INSOMNIA, anxiety and more
Student Love
“I was bed-bound with severe Long Covid for months, unable to look after myself, and spent over a year housebound on the sofa. The most I could walk was 15 minutes, slowly, and today I did 55-minutes of cardio and strength exercises! My recovery has been miraculous and incredibly quick! There were points during the programme where I got noticeably better every day. I’ve been participating in life fully like a healthy, normal person!!”
- Anne B., London, UK

In Students’ Words
What Sets Be Your Own Medicine Apart?
“I loved all of it! Brain training helped in some ways but felt like a burden and my difficult feelings were suppressed. With Be Your Own Medicine, we’re taught to accept and love all of ourselves and to feel all our emotions. This was new and game-changing for me. This was the best course I've taken! By far!”
- Joelle M, USA
“The course is a game-changer! Other brain retraining programs provide a temporary band-aid. This course gives healthy practices to easily implement in my routine. I've done lots of meditation but yours hit the spot. Your fantastic meditations enable me to feel emotions more than I ever have and calm my nervous system. I frigging love them!!”
- Julia O’Brien, UK
“This is the sixth mind-body recovery program that I’ve done. Be Your Own Medicine is the most complete, loving and wonderful program by a mile. The other recovery programs have no clear path. They feel like kindergarten. Be Your Own Medicine feels like University. What a blessing this program is.”
- Julian Nathanson, UK
"I enjoyed every minute, especially the live classes and Rebecca's way of presenting the course in a human and wonderful way. It wouldn't be fair to give a 10 out of 10 because the course is beyond these numbers. The first 3 modules were so illuminating, it turned down my anxiety about symptoms and PEM. It’s the best choice of your life."
- Aleksandar Misic, Gothenburg, Sweden
“This is the one! Entirely different planet!!! This is soooo tailored to the individual. Rebecca said “what works and soothes YOU is what works!” Other programs are “must do this, in this order” which only causes more pressure and stress!!! This was a life changer. Rebecca and the team are angels!”
- Jennifer Bauer, Virginia, USA
“I feel totally well, at ease and alive! With traditional brain retraining, relief never lasted long because it didn't make me less afraid of symptoms. Be Your Own Medicine has given me back my life without hours of rounds and anxious fixating on symptoms. I’ve recovered and healed beyond what therapists and coaches said was possible.”
- Anne B., London, UK
“My diagnosis was for CFS/ME and at my worst I’d been bed bound… Now, I feel like I’m thriving rather than just surviving!”
"I was still housebound when I started Be Your Own Medicine—in a wheelchair to get out of the house and spending most of my day on a sofa. I was in limbo between life and death. Now, I’m so excited about life again! I’m so excited to wake up in the morning and do whatever I’m going to do that day, feeling so joyful."
- Poppy Wildman, Nottingham, UK

“I'm healing decades of trauma. I've truly had an awakening and come home to myself. I was mostly bedridden prior to the course and I've been doing more activities than I have in years. I dug big holes for hydrangeas! I hosted my husband's family reunion at our house. I cooked meals for 16 people and didn't have back pain while doing it (super big win!). Be Your Own Medicine absolutely was the missing link. This was the best decision I've made in my five-year journey with chronic illness.”

“I'm doing amazing!!!! Working fulltime, helping my two teenagers navigate adulting, running again and doing serious weight training! I feel done with Long Covid. I’m now sort of in love with myself! I can't stop smiling, and today on my daily 8 km hike, I was caught dancing on the trail by some other hikers. Rebecca, you have created a masterpiece and you are a leading voice in this space. If I had this course from the beginning I wouldn't have had to go anywhere else. A one-stop shop. Thank you!”
- Angela Lawrence, Kamloops, British Columbia
“I’d been suffering from Long Covid for 2 years. I want to thank you so much for your course and your support! It was the booster I needed. I’ve gotten my life back! I totally broke the circle of Post Exertional Malaise. I’m on vacation in Italy. I’m going out to dinner with 15 people, running 40 minutes, sightseeing, swimming, going to bed late, playing card games… lots of joy. So wonderful!!!! My energy is flowing again!”
- Mabel Ansenk, The Hague, Netherlands
“You’re changing my life! I want to thank you with all my heart. From your videos and guides, I’ve gone from barely able to eat for 4 years to eating everything!!! I’d been in hospital with gut issues and was close to making the horrid decision to have gallbladder surgery because I thought I had Crohn’s disease. I now make a menu each week with meals I’ve dreamt of for so long. Yesterday I hosted friends for dinner, cooking butter chicken curry. This week I’m hosting pancakes at the beach for sunrise. Thank you!!”
- Amy Dodsworth, Skegness, England
“I’m back to one of the great loves of my life—hiking in the mountains. I’m rebuilding my strength after many years of no exercise at all. The last time I went on anything I’d call a hike was in 1997! I just hiked Marble Canyon in the Canadian Rockies, and I could sense my euphoria infecting the hikers around me as we climbed that amazing river canyon. The next day my only symptoms were chomping at the bit for another hike. This course is outstanding! A+++”
- Marilyn Lemmon, Mt. Shasta, California
“Be Your Own Medicine is a match that started a flame within me. By the third session, I was like ‘Wow! I’m not a sick man. I’m a healthy man!’ The magic unfolded day after day. By the time a meditation was done that symptom had vanished. My system has accepted that I’m extraordinarily healthy, vibrant and strong. I’m building on my stamina—hiking, push-ups, situps, jogging, swimming, paddling and surfing! I can't imagine my life without your healing program. You’re one in a million.”
- Jon H., Carlsbad, California
“I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in 2014. Then I had Long Covid and symptoms of Fibromyalgia. Before the course, I was essentially bed-bound, maxing out at 3,000 steps a day, struggling to do much more than that. I’ve since taken on a very physical job. I can now go for 10 kilometer walks. If you told me this only 7 months ago, I’d have told you there was no chance. 10K looked like Everest. Yet, here I am and I’m grateful for that!”
- Christophe Sagnet, Glasgow, Scotland

“I love the course and wish I had been 'prescribed' this years ago. I’ve done DNRS, ANS Rewire, watched the Curable workshop videos and read Dr. Schubiner’s 30-day program. This course is hands-down the most comprehensive and helpful of these. I now have great stamina after challenging myself with activity and workouts. I can enjoy my work, household responsibilities and my kids!”
- Elizabeth, San Diego, California, USA
FAQs
📆 What are the live class dates?
Our Welcome Module for the Spring 2025 cohort opens March 12th! That gives you a few days to peruse the course before the first live session on Tuesday, March 18th at 10 am PT.

Most sessions meet on Tuesdays from 10 am – 12 pm Pacific Time. Even if you can't attend live, you can watch the recordings and download all sessions to keep!
👩🏻🏫 What if I can't make live classes?
We've got you covered! We post class recordings on our private website about 6 hours after the live event. We have participants from around the world in our global community. Some people only watch the recordings and say they still experience the loving support, comraderie and accountability of the live cohort. Whether or not you attend live classes, you can pre-submit questions for Q&A sessions with Rebecca and guest experts. Another benefit of the cohort: You can ask our Be Your Own Medicine coaching team your personal questions on our portal during the 10-week cohort!
📚 What's the curriculum?
Yes! You can see a detailed list of our robust course lessons here. Besides live classes, there are videos, audio meditations, writing exercises and written guides to support your recovery. Past students say the course is robust but easy-to-follow. You don't have to do it all, but we offer an array of practices to suit different people.
⏳ How long do I have the course?
You'll have extended access to the Be Your Own Medicine website! You can log into the course portal for the lifetime of the program, meaning as long as we offer Be Your Own Medicine on our current teaching platform Thinkific. This will be a minimum of one year from the first live class and most likely longer, as Rebecca is passionate about offering this program! You can also download all videos, audios and handouts to keep on your personal device. Our coaching team will respond to questions during the 10-week live cohort. Students can also enjoy our Community Forum for peer-to-peer support during these 10 weeks!
🌙 When is your next live cohort?
Our Spring 2025 cohort is the only one scheduled this year. Typically, Rebecca teaches a live cohort once or twice a year. No dates are set for the next cohort. It will either be in Fall 2025 or Spring 2026. If you're interested in the live experience, now is the time to dive in!
💸 Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! You can pay your tuition upfront or split it into either two or three installments, charged once a month. Tuition for the Spring 2025 cohort is $995. You can find payment plans listed in the registration section of this course page.

If you know that Be Your Own Medicine is the program for you, and you can't afford the tuition, you're welcome to apply for a discount by March 10 at 5 pm Pacific Time. We can offer partial scholarships for a limited number of sincere seekers. Another option is our self-paced course which is offered at a lower price point!
💁🏽♀️ What's your refund policy?
This work can be challening but we encourage you to stick with it! Healing happens by moving through obstacles with consistent practice. But if it’s the right fit after the Welcome Module and first live class, we offer a money-back guarantee within the first 7 days of the course (minus a $75 processing fee). We must receive your email before 10 am Pacific Time on Tuesday, March 25th for the Spring 2025 cohort. There are no refunds after this date.

🤔 Is the course easy to follow?
People with brain fog, fatigue, pain and other strong symptoms routinely say this is the most low-pressure course they've taken! It's laid out in a clear and user-friendly manner. Rebecca walks you through the course step by step, helping you shift from self-criticism to self-compassion. In fact, the whole course is rooted in Mindful Self-Compassion. Be Your Own Medicine is gentle but potent. We learn to attune to our nervous system and meet our needs as part of recovery.
🙋🏻♀️Is the live cohort or self-paced course better for me?
The cohort offers the added dimensions of live support, community and comraderie, and live classes with Rebecca! In the live cohort, you can submit questions for Q&A sessions with Rebecca and guest experts; You can ask our coaching team questions on our private website during the 10-week cohort; You can connect with peers on our friendly Community forum; And you can join optional breakout groups for some live sessions. Otherwise, the self-paced course and the live cohort offer the same 10 modules, chocked full of knowledge and practices for your recovery! Because Rebecca and her team support you throughout the live cohort, the tuition is higher. The self-paced course costs $595 USD. The live cohort costs $995 USD for Spring 2025, with a $200 early bird discount during the first week of registration.
Rather take the self-paced course instead? Join the self-paced course here!
🦋 Can I get private coaching with Rebecca?
Rebecca's is opening a handful of individual coaching slots only for Be Your Own Medicine participants! These sessions are offered at an additional fee on a first-come first-served basis. The earlier you sign up for the live cohort, the more likely you are to get one! You also might work with another mind-body coach on our team. If you want to work with a therapist or doctor as an adjunct, search the Psychophysiologic Disorders Association Practioner Directory or consider a trauma-informed, somatic-based therapist in your area.
❤️🩹 What symptoms will this help?
Assuming there's no major structural or pathological issue, this mind-body approach can help people with ME/CFS, long Covid, chronic fatigue, headaches, brain fog, fibromyalgia, insomnia, anxiety, POTS, irritable bowel syndrome, digestive issues, interstial cystitis and other bladder issues, pelvic pain, chronic back, neck or shoulder pain, migraines and headaches, TMJ, repetitive stress injuries and other mind-body symptoms. Dr. Howard Schbubiner calls this Mind-Body Syndrome (MBS) and Dr. John Sarno called it Tension Myositis Syndrome (TMS).
🦠 Can this course help me recover from long Covid and ME/CFS?
While we can't guarantee results for anyone, Rebecca has helped many clients and students recover from long Covid, chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), Epstein-Barr and other post-viral symptoms. Rebecca consulted on a mind-body pilot study for Long Covid patients through a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical Center, with promising results. You can also find our Success Stories here! As long as you've ruled out tissue damage with your physician, mind-body healing helps many people recover and live a full life.
🤷🏽♂️ Am I ready for this course?
- Your physician has ruled out pathological and structural causes, such as bone disease, infection, fractures or cancer. We are not doctors and cannot diagnose you. It's essential that you see a licenced doctor to evaluate your symptoms prior to this course.
- Your symptoms haven’t improved by treatments suggested by your medical professionals.
- You’re open to exploring your somatic experience as a pathway to healing.
- You're ready to work with thoughts to retrain your brain.
- You want self-empowering tools to learn and heal!
- You're drawn to Rebecca's approach and this branch of mind-body healing.
🧠 Can my brain cause symptoms?
Chronic pain, fatigue, brain fog, anxiety and other mind-body symptoms are 100% real and you feel them in your body. But emerging science shows the cause can be in the brain. When our nervous system gets activated, there's a cascade of physiological changes in nerve firing patterns, blood flow and hormone production etc. Nervous system activation and learned neural pathways can cause pain, fatigue, weakness, tingling, burning, spasms, anxiety, insomnia, difficulty concentrating, insomnia and more. John Sarno used to say that TMS symptoms can be stronger than symptoms with a structural cause. Fortunately, there's a remedy!
