From graded exercise and diet, to mindfulness and everything in between, let’s celebrate the wins in our recovery and share what’s been working for you!
Living with Long COVID can feel overwhelming; striking a balance between maintaining your pre-COVID daily routine with recovering from a chronic illness can be challenging. We’ve heard from members of the community that living with Long COVID can sometimes elicit feelings of powerlessness, with the process of recovery and engaging with health care providers as research evolves creating a sense of uncertainty for many. One tool for empowering your journey to health is self-care. Self-care is the practice of taking an active role in protecting you own wellbeing and fostering behaviours that promote health and active management of illness. Taking charge of your health by creating a plan for self-care could include:
· Prioritising time for yourself
· Making time for graded exercise (with advice from your health practitioner)
· Healthy diet
