This A5 To Do List notepad, with 50 sheets, is a great pacing tool.
There are sections for Challenging stuff, Okay stuff, and Easy stuff, plus Food and drink, and Movement. We usually write lists of all the difficult things, which makes pacing harder and can leave us feeling like we’ve failed when we don’t get everything done. These notepads help us to think up a balanced and realistic plan for the day that includes all the essentials (including the easy things we often dismiss but are vital to pacing and recharging.)
What is easy/okay/challenging will vary between people, but also between days – so make sure you rate each tasks by your capacity today. For example reading might be a good relaxing thing for someone on one day, but a really challenging thing another day. Listing the ‘easy’ things makes it easier to appreciate their importance – and just how much of an achievement it is to build a balanced day.
And remember, movement doesn’t need to mean ‘traditional exercise’ – it can mean any level of movement that is right for you, and this includes things like:
- Changing position in bed to reduce muscle stiffness or bedsores,
- Lying down or raising legs to manage autonomic symptoms,
- Stretching
- Deep breathing
- Sitting unsupported for a few minutes
