And suspecting it could be the latter, then when is it the right time to start to feel confident about moving more...and gradually starting to exercise? 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.

Whether the goal be to walk, swim, cycle etc. Please note: This event isn't about how to re-condition and move from severe fatigue to achieving some level of activity. That requires careful 1:1 guidance via my coaching service. This webinar is for those who have a base level of activity but want to be smart about where to build from there. My help is relevant to anyone tackling a fatigue recovery journey - whether that be due to ME/CFS, Long Covid etc, or perhaps post-operative recovery. Basically, anyone who has - or has had - an energy-related issue that's meant they have to be very careful about what they commit to doing each day. What topics do you cover? How to spot when you're doing well enough to start thinking about exercising again How to feel confident about starting to do more The types of exercise that seem to go well at first Guidance and tips about HOW to start incorporating exercising into your recovery plan This is a recording of a live webinar that I held a short time ago.
