Life with Chronic Pain and Illness
For some time, I’ve been sharing Life with Chronic Pain and Illness posts on my Instagram page (www.instagram.com/hopeamidthepain). These are tips that people, particularly those living with chronic pain and illness, may find helpful. I decided to start sharing them here on my blog, as well.
Today’s reminder is true all year round, but it’s especially important at the holiday season (a time when it’s all too easy to feel the need to overdo it).
Pace yourself! It’s hard to keep up with everything for most people, and when you have limited spoons, it’s even more necessary to conserve your energy when/where possible. Ask for help! Don’t try to do it all by yourself. And remember, everything doesn’t have to be perfect. Your presence is more important that your presents.
I hope you have a blessed, low-pain day.
