8. Schedule Rests
Some days will get the better of you, and as obligations pile up, you’re at risk for a physical and mental crash. One way to defend against the crash is with carefully scheduled rests – whether that’s just taking a meditative moment away from the hubbub, or grabbing a 15 minutes cat-nap. This technique is known as “pre-emptive rest”, and it marks an important shift from a reactive life to a proactive life with fibromyalgia. Even if you don’t feel like you really need a time-out, sticking to your rest schedule creates stability, feeds stamina, and reduces symptoms.
