From Illness to Full Health

I’m Chris, the founder of the Healing Program.

I personally lived with ME/CFS for more than six years. From my own experience, I know what it feels like to be stuck in a chronic illness that seems to have no clear cause, explanation, or solution — even while being obviously seriously ill and dealing with a wide range of intense symptoms.

Today, I am fully healthy again. Not by chance, but through a systematic and scientifically grounded approach. Along this path, I immersed myself deeply in mindfulness and am now a trained mindfulness and MBSR teacher.

Key insights for me on this journey were:

  • Body and mind are inseparably connected.

  • The body is not our enemy, but our ally.

  • Healing does not arise through fighting, but through genuine relaxation.

  • The key to healing lies not outside, but within.

My goal is to support people living with chronic exhaustion on their path toward healing.
I know how burdensome these conditions are. And I am convinced that improvement and full recovery are possible.

That is exactly why I created the Healing Program.
It guides you step by step on your path toward recovery.
