Strategies for slowing down
Good morning and happy hump day!
Today is my Friday as I have IVIG tomorrow and Friday! I am looking forward to a much needed break, I’ve been going non-stop since last month’s IVIG and this week has been particularly tough for me, especially after working a 12 hour shift at work.
@lorildunham‘s most recent article was very relatable for me. “Finding Strategies to Slow Our Pace” is something I’ve been working on. Like Lori, I am very type A and a go-getter. I have the hardest time saying “no” and this year I’ve been working on that.
I often push myself to the edge and sometimes over the edge because I over-fill my plate.
Is anyone else like this?
As Lori says, “It has taken me many months to teach myself how to slow down. It is a daily choice. I take deliberate steps to bring peace and order to our home.”
I was diagnosed with LEMS in September of 2015, I am still working on when I need to slow down and when I can ramp things up. I am getting better, but I still have some work to do and find it hard to truly take time for myself and my body to rest aside from on IVIG days. Those are a “sacred” routine for me.
Has anyone mastered the pacing of activities in their life with LEMS?
