Show Notes

If you’ve been having a chronic fatigue or chronic illness experience for any length of time, you are probably all too familiar with the cycle of boom and bust. We all do too much and crash from time to time, but when this happens again and again, we want to consider how we are contributing to it. 

It isn’t always as simple as; just do less. Sometimes the “overdoing” is a reflection of maladaptive coping mechanisms that we have been relying on for years, decades even. Being able to unlearn old strategies and create new ones takes time, patience and compassion. 

In this episode Anna unpacks some of the patterns to watch out for and where we can begin to create healthier coping mechanisms in life.
