A recording of a live webinar held in November 2023. I share the most important areas that you should be focussing on, so that you minimise the time spent wondering what on earth you can do to improve your fatigue challenge and current situation - and get onto the right path to recovery.How this webinar will help you I've helped hundreds of people to navigate this element of their recovery journey and I've used this experience to share in this webinar the most successful ways to plan for, and introduce, movement and exercise.  What this webinar covers As a Fatigue Coach, over the past five years I’ve helped hundreds of people improve how they’re living with fatigue, and guided them to an improved place - often helping them to achieve a full recovery. I want to share the most important areas that you should be focussing on, so that you minimise the time spent wondering what on earth you can do to improve your situation. This webinar is primarily for those who are in the first 6 months of tackling a fatigue-related health challenge, or those who have been dealing with it for longer than that but haven’t yet received any helpful advice. There are different severities of fatigue and the help I cover will be of most benefit to those who are struggling enough that they perhaps can’t work or socialise, but who do have some level of activity. For example, able to get up and dressed most days and prepare their own meals on a good day, but have to give lots of planned thought to anything that involves having to leave the house.   In this webinar I share my top pieces of guidance around the most helpful things you can do to cope better with this challenging illness. This includes:   - top tips to start managing your energy levels properly (pacing) - how to manage the difficult emotions that come with this health challenge - how to rest - communicating with those who don’t understand what you’re going through.   The webinar recording is approximately an hour long.
