Jackie Baxter

Jackie Baxter supports people with Long Covid, ME/CFS, post‑viral illness, and burnout by blending gentle breathwork, nervous‑system regulation, emotional regulation & creating a safe place to be seen. Her work centres on helping people feel safer in their bodies, rebuilding capacity, and the possibility of recovery, offering the steady, compassionate guidance she once needed herself. Jackie also hosts The Recovery Room (which for 5 years was The Long Covid Podcast). What began as a desperate search for answers during her own illness has grown into a trusted space for medical experts, researchers, practitioners & recovery stories. The podcast continues to evolve with Jackie’s own journey, widening into the full landscape of healing and nervous‑system recovery. Jackie trained as a Buteyko Breathing Instructor with Patrick McKeown, after breathwork became the first thing that truly shifted her Long Covid recovery. Now fully recovered, she is devoted to sharing the tools, hope, and grounded support that helped her heal. She is also a certified Holistic Life Coach & Mind‑Body Practitioner with additional certifications in emotional regulation & Mindfulness. Beyond her professional work Jackie embraces creativity, silliness, and the great outdoors. Whether hillwalking, wild swimming, or seeking out new adventures, she brings a joyful, grounded energy to everything she does; a reminder that recovery can lead not just to wellness, but to a fuller, brighter & more aligned life.
