Do you want to do things, but get setbacks every time you try? Recovering from fatigue and brain fog is a balancing act. On the one hand, you have to allow time for recovery and not do too much. On the other hand, too much restriction becomes a confirmation for the brain that your illness is dangerous, which increases stress and increases symptoms. So how should you do it? That's what I'm going to answer today.

Key takeaways:

• Let go of the demands for your optimal recovery. It's okay not to succeed in getting the perfect recovery.
• Plan your activities based on effort and make sure you get enough recovery between the intense activities. It's not dangerous to be stressed sometimes, as long as you take it easy before and after.
• Plan recovery in the form of active rest, passive rest and sleep.
