Hey everyone!
I hope you enjoy this video. The underlying emotions are not always immediately obvious, however once we dig a little, we might be surprised!
Megan you have become a specialist, such a deep analysis. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much 🙏🏼☺️
Thanks Megan, please keep the videos coming!
excellent information delivered with compassion...thank you so much megan..
Thank you I’m so glad you think so ☺️
Is there anyone here who stepped in the mud and feels like will fall down due to too mich dizziness? Or while washing the dishes feels like moving back ward away from the sink?
I definitely felt very strange whilst washing dishes!
My root cause of my dizziness was when I got so badly sick in Covid times in 2021 which I taught I got COVID and I am going to die I was so scared which may have triggered everything. I should thank you who help me a lot in my healing journey watching videos makes me feel so much better 0ut 100 I am 90% better now than before😊 the only time I feel the dizziness if I am forcing something for too long or getting anxious about something it’s just Radom now i don’t how to explain it😅 I am so happy that I found your channel huge huge fan from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

I'm so proud of how far you've come 💖
Thank you so much! I watched your winter rain video the other day and it’s so awesome!!! You should keep posting 😁
@Megan Jennifer ♡ Maybe one day 😅 Keep inspiring other, it's what you're good at
@@williamdagnall4149 I appreciate that 😊
Thanks Megan for this video❤❤
Thank you for such wonderful video Megan, please tell me how to manage symptoms while driving. My symptoms exacerbate while driving. And driving is something I can’t quit because of work.
Past 2 years in my life have really been stressful, and my symptoms started after a panic attack in the car. Above that im a highly anxious person. Will meditation work? Or anything else you can suggest.
It’s interesting that your symptoms started after a panic attack in the car and now symptoms are worse in the car!
It’s likely your brain has formed some kind of association between the car and symptoms.
And I’m afraid to say this, but the only way you’re going to get better in a car is by putting yourself in that situation and doing some deep belly breathing/meditation!
You need to begin teaching your brain that you are safe again. 🤍
At first, you do not have to drive!! I recommend to simply sit in the car and do some deep parasympathetic breathing.
Let your body adjust to the idea of being in the car first!
Then you can slowly drive a short distance, cultivating that feeling of safety, and then you can start to increase the distance.
I hope that helps ! ❤
I’ll definitely follow each and every advice given by you, does yoga and meditation work in pppd?
@@tushar334absolutely! Both of those practices can be wonderful 😊
I get dizzy spells mostly while driving and in rich visual stimuli, what i usually do is i try to put on a good podcast or an informative video in order to surf through symptoms so that im not paying much attention to them, and once the exacerbate i try to calm down through breathing. I have to drive literally 5-6 hours daily because of work.
Please tell is this approach right? Or i should do something else.
@@tushar334 I would do some deep breathing before they exacerbate to the point where you feel really bad!
But distraction is a totally valid strategy for when you need it😊😊
i have a lot of stress regarding the dizziness itself even if im fine ill start thinking omg is there any sypmtom yes i am feeling weird etc and then i start getting more stressed or if i have some place to be that i cannot avoid i expect the worst and start to experience even more bodily sensations and i can't control it or bring myself to calm down even with parasympathetic breathing and stuff please help me i am so tired to this for the past 3 years
I felt the exact same way before.
Please try to keep going with these techniques! Even if it doesn’t immediately reduce the symptoms, it IS making a difference in your body. It took months for it to make a difference for me
Just try your very best not to feed your anxiety my friend more you worry more it get worse that’s what I learn from my mistakes. T
Thanks Megan ur hope in my live
I’m so glad I can help 🙏🏼
In ur experience, what do u think was the reason for not truly healing the years before ? Maybe an advice.
Many reasons! I think the main reason was because I was still so anxious about the symptoms.
I continued to focus on them, talk about them all the time, I was still avoiding certain activities… etc
I've had problems for 13 years and getting worse!
I’m sorry to hear that David. I’m here if you would like any support!
Hi Megan, excellent video as always ❤️ do you think Vestibular neuritis can lead to PPPD? I'm at almost 6 months and it's been so up and down. I've had moments, days, and weeks of feeling 90-95% better, but feel like I'm in another flare up right now 😞 did you have a lot of flare ups in the process of recovery?
Hi! Yes absolutely it can!
Vestibular neuritis usually resolves after 6-8 weeks, so now it’s definitely some kind of neural circuit dizziness that’s taken over.
@@Megan_Jennifer thank you for your response! I suspected that. I'm not sure how much/if I have nerve damage at all, but this all happened to me right after having COVID. I've been doing VRT since the start of this and walking 2 miles per day. It's just so frustrating to see results then feel like I'm going backwards 😞
@@katiealanna I know exactly how you feel😞 I’m sorry!
But, keep going! Nerves can repair 😊
You can use healthy neurons to create new neural pathways!
Did you have swaying when standing still or walking?
Does your hand shake sometimes due to stress?
How is your health anxiety?
@@sherriquest414 yes I had swaying standing still, laying still and walking! Everything! My health anxiety is better these days :)
Yes I replied to the other comment about the shaking!
Have you met anyone that recovered from vestibular migraines and was able to get off meds and not have any issues later? Been recently diagnosed last year but for the first time, I'm also getting the headaches to go along with it.
Vestibular warrior on RUclips! She recovered completely :) she used meds for a while but got off them.
You CAN fully recover
Where you able to get off your meds?
@@gvillarreal79 I never took meds! I tried it for about 3 weeks but came off.
@@Megan_Jennifer wow congrats you recovered without meds, so did you have a vestibular migraine or pppd? Do you still have moments of dizziness? Mine seems to be linked to my neck somehow that triggers the vestibular migraine
@@gvillarreal79 thank you ! I consider myself almost recovered because I do still have mild symptoms. However they are nowhere near as bad as they used to be! Most days I barely notice them.
I’m not 100% sure on my diagnosis! PPPD/VM/MDDS. I had symptoms of all 3! Labels aren’t too important to me now.
I will say I had a random flare up of symptoms this week, stress induced. So it’s so important to take care of your mental health!
Hey i am 21 and its been 7 years i am feeling dizzy all the time plz help me with exercise if you can
Hello! I’m very sorry to hear that you are still suffering after so long.
Please email me at info@conscioushealing.uk and we can discuss it there! 😊
I have pppd. Should I be avoiding caffeine or does it not matter?
Hello! I can’t give medical advice of course, but I will give you a few reasons why caffeine may not be the best thing to include whilst you’re healing…
Caffeine is a stimulant which can increase the heart rate and nervous system activity! For a system that’s already over sensitive, might be best to avoid.
It might also disrupt your sleep cycle.
Once your body is less hyper vigilant, maybe add it back in!
Ok thank you
Also do you know of anyone that benzodiazepines has helped at all with pppd? I see doctor tmrw and might ask to try these along with setraline
@@tylertiffany4784 medication is not a cure for PPPD. It may numb the symptoms but in my opinion it’s important to get to the root cause! :)
Ok
I just don’t know how to find my root cause cause I’m medically cleared and have no vestibular issues.
Only thing I know is exactly when it started and it was after I consumed too much alcohol and vomited all my fluids out and went to the ER
I’m guessing my body nervous system went into fight or flight during this and just got stuck cause I’ve been dizzy ever since 8 months now…
@@tylertiffany4784 yes that can be the root cause! Nervous system dysregulation. I really recommend to start using all the practices I mention :)
how do we use neuroplasticity to heal from this? i know we should try and focus on associating with the symptoms in a different way like not be afraid of them but its hard to do that when you are experiencing it because it isn't funny or something you can get up and move on from and just resume to your normal activities and instead of looking at the symptoms in a different way i just want them gone and to be sypmtom/ sensation free? is that thought stopping me from getting better?
Unfortunately that is the way out! Changing your responses to the symptoms is very important for healing. Of course this won’t be possible all the time because we’re only human and sometimes we get angry or sad! And that’s okay… Just allow yourself to feel it and move through it.
But yes, try to attach different emotions to the symptoms now.
Knowing that there’s nothing physically wrong with you, your dizziness is just trying to keep you safe.
Any time your symptoms increase in the moment, do the parasympathetic breathing and turn your attention to what you were doing.
I have a lot of information on neuroplasticity on my website! ♥️
@@Megan_Jennifer so a gist is try to do "normal things" and when you face a sensation or symptom you should sit down observe it and tell your self it is not harmful and just a sensation and calm your mind through parasympathetic breathing and this in all makes you look at the symptoms not in a fearful way and is what neuroplasticity is?
@@Megan_Jennifer also idk how i feel about vrt exercises because sometimes i feel fine after them and other times not, so is there any other movement you would suggest i start with or what you did so i can start trying that because i have been stuck inside for the past 3 years and i am so done with this im giving up the years of my life that i should have enjoyed and have only regret for not doing anything these past 3 years please help me. is there a step by step to follow?
@@mindyli5974 In a nutshell yes! You won’t always have to sit down and observe it though.
If you are finding that you are extremely anxious about it, then taking some time to calm the anxiety will do you some good.
I offer step-by-step coaching with my one-to-one clients! If you feel like you need some extra support I would be happy to work out a program for you to follow. ♥️♥️
Otherwise for now, I advise you to keep on trying to get out of your comfort zone and work on the anxiety.
@@Megan_Jennifer i definitely will want to reach out and get the assistance especially from you because of the progress i have seen and the inspiration you give, i was going through your page and you mention in resuming normal life that we need to do things again but i wanted to ask what specific things did you start with and what did you do outside because i also feel i need someone with me always
Ya no subes cover para escucharte cantar 😕😕
Te prometo que subiré más covers!! 😊😊 He estado muy ocupado últimamente con mi negocio. Pero todavía me encanta cantar 😊
@@Megan_Jennifer Que bueno, gracias ☺
Hiii Megan do u feel sensation in one part of the body when u suffer from this I mean a vibration sensation??
Yes! I still get that sometimes in my legs… It feels like they’re really tight and it sometimes feels like I can feel my heartbeat in them.
It used to be there all the time
Did you experience swaying or rocking side to side or front to back? I feel it internally mostly, but I physically sway slightly as well. Just wondering if you dealt with this symptom? It stops in a car and when I rock in a rocking chair. I believe its mdds. If you had this symptom did the swaying stop suddenly or just slowly fizzle out? This is so frustrating and hard. Been dealing with this for 8 months now...
Yes I had swaying and rocking both side to side and front to back! It would always stop in a moving vehicle as well.
I believe I had symptoms of MDDS and PPPD because walking was also a very hard challenge for me.
As I did the nervous system techniques, the symptoms gradually decreased.
I still experience it mildly, sometimes I don’t feel it at all.
@@Megan_Jennifer What did it feel like to walk for you? I can walk okay but my head feels weird while I'm walking. I'm not sure it's because I'm swaying and then trying to walk while Im swaying and then that creates those weird sensations in my head or what? It used to feel like the ground was shifting some, but that has gotten better. Also did you feel worse as the day went on? My swaying has gotten more subtle, but I've noticed I get really fatigued later in the afternoon or if I try to do to much. Should I rest or try to push through the symptoms? Thanks so much for all the help! You are an inspiration for alot of us who are going through the same thing!❤
@@amandar614 walking used to be a nightmare!! Every step I took felt like it was sending jolts through my brain.
It gradually eased up and felt like my head was a bobble head as I walked.
But it kept getting easier as I did all the techniques I talk about in my videos.
YES fatigue was something I dealt with a lot! There was a time when I took a shower in the morning and then was completely drained of energy for the rest of the day.
My symptoms were always better in the morning as well.
@@Megan_Jennifer Currently I'm dealing with feeling mostly okay from the morning time (very subtle swaying) until about 3pm. Then it's like I hit a wall and I have to lie down. It's like I'm extremely fatigued mixed with feeling way more sensitive to the swaying etc. Its awful. The more I do in the morning/early afternoon usually the worse it is for me in the evening. I've been trying to walk (about 1.5 miles) and the days I do...I'm so fatigued by like 2 or 2:30pm. It's hard figuring out how much to push myself.
@@amandar614I totally relate to that! Don’t stop walking though. Your body is just catching up. You’re not making anything worse. Your body will be creating more energy cells the more you walk, it’s a good thing :) you get fatigued because you used more energy than you currently have stored. But the body is amazing and will continue to create more.
I wonder how much epigenetics plays a part in this. Have you read any of Dr. Bruce Lipton’s work?
I haven’t actually! However I’ve read a lot of Joe Dispenza’s work on epigenetics!
Do you ever talk to people privately via dm?
You can email me if you have a question! 😊
Hi Megan! Just wanna ask if you still go to theater cinema? Does it make your dizziness worst? Cause I've tried to watch in cinema like 2yrs ago and that will never happen again cause it makes my dizziness worst.
Hello!
So I didn’t go to the cinema for years during the worst of it. But I go now! I would try and go again however utilise all the nervous system regulation techniques. That’s what really helped me :)
@@Megan_Jennifer wow good for you! thanks so much for responding. One last question if you dont mind:) How did you get better from pppd in the past 3yrs? I have mine since before pandemic and I still feel horrible day by day. Sadly, Its really hard to find a vestubular specialist or physical therapist here in my country couse its a very rare condition here.
@@ryotatheo I’m so sorry you’ve been suffering so long! 😢
It’s a very long story as I’m sure you can imagine. So I can’t really tell you everything in one message! I recommend to check out all of my other RUclips videos, I talk about what I did to recover.
I also have my website www.conscioushealing.uk where I have tons of free info! ☺️
If you still need some help, I offer one-to-one coaching sessions.
@@Megan_Jennifer Thankyou very much! Btw, Im actually really interested in your one to one coaching sessions. The only thing is that Im not diagnosed by any doctor yet but Im 100% sure its PPPD cause all of the pppd recovery/experience videos that I've checked is same as mine. Another thing is that its really hard to find the right doc for me lol. Like 4 docs already consulted me but they dont undertand what my dizziness is.
@@ryotatheo that’s so frustrating! I know the feeling. It took me almost 2 years to be diagnosed. I would love to help you, but I think it’ll be a good idea to have full medical clearance first!
Hi what is your details/name on Instagram so I can find your page thanks
