M.E./CFS Holiday Guide: 9 Tips to Reduce Stress and Stay Energised

The holiday season can feel like a mountain to climb when you're living with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).

Between the expectations, the pressure to put on a happy face, and the fear of overdoing it, it’s no wonder this time of year can be overwhelming.

But what if there was a way to navigate the season with more ease and less stress?

In my latest podcast episode, I share nine simple yet powerful tips to help you feel more in control, enjoy the moments that matter, and take the pressure off—both physically and emotionally.

One of my favorite takeaways: You don’t have to pretend to be something you’re not. Letting go of that pressure can make a world of difference.

Whether it’s learning how to set boundaries, avoid overcommitting, or simply rest when you need to, these tips are designed to help you move through the holidays in a way that feels right for you.

I hope this gives you the permission and tools to enjoy the season—your way.
