Voicing body and embodying voice - a performance

Abstract
Rebuilding your Life (RyL) is a recovery-focused programme developed by those recovered and recovering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) and healthcare professionals(McDermott, 2015). Its ethos of co-enquiry enables all participants (recoverers and facilitators) to be equal collaborators (Raphael, 2015). The main facilitator, Sarah Frossell, uses Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and coaches each person within the group by truly attending to the voice of their body in terms of the illness and of their return to wellbeing.
Jenni Mair (recovered after eighteen years of CFS/ME) and Hilly Raphael (a RyL cofacilitator) celebrate the restorying they experienced through RyL. They’ve identified concepts of each finding a voice, further enabled through their collaboration(Raphael, Mair and Frossell, 2015). They explore the voice that Jenni discovered which empowered her to acknowledge aspects of life previously un-voiced, and to create an image of a positive future which she’s already entering. They acknowledge the role of voice as a conduit of emotional and bodily stories, which transition from the internal to the external body, and from one to another; ultimately when attended to enabling healing and transformation.
This reflection, acting as a meta-performance, explores the initiation of recovery through voice and body performing.
