Replenish O.T. Living well with fatigue

Are you fatigued or just tired?

Do you feel constantly exhausted and struggle to manage daily tasks or find you are not coping at work? Do you go to bed worn out, but find you can’t sleep very well and wake up just as tired as the evening before? Perhaps your mind is racing with your long ‘to do’ list but you don’t have the energy to make a start. Or you always seem to be unwell with colds or viruses. If this is you, read on.

We all experience tiredness at times and this can be relieved by sleep and rest. Chronic fatigue is when the tiredness is overwhelming and isn’t relieved by sleep and rest. It will have a negative impact on how you manage your daily life and we can say it is life affecting fatigue.

A number of health conditions are known to cause chronic fatigue. Long Covid-19 has become a very significant concern at the moment. Learning how to manage the fatigue will help you cope with everyday life as well as possible. Ongoing stress, major life events and life transitions, such as the menopause for women, can cause chronic fatigue too. The goal is to enable you to replenish energy and to ‘live well’ within your limitations and therefore gain an improvement in your energy levels. If you are willing to make changes towards your health and wellbeing my Fatigue Management approaches can help you.

Take a look  at my Thoughts and Inspiration page for some guidance on managing fatigue.
