There are things in life that only we can do for ourselves and learning to pace ourselves is one of those. No one can do this for us because we all have such varying levels of tolerance to stress. It’s up to us to discern our own tolerance levels and recognise our own early warning symptoms of overdoing it.

Perhaps the greatest hurdle to overcome is the guilt feelings that accompany resting and recreation. I have found that the best way to deal with these feelings is to take oneself aside, sit oneself down and give oneself a good talking to.

• ‘There’s nothing wrong with taking time out to rest. Rest is constructive. It’s during times of rest that my tired cells and worn out tissues build themselves up and make necessary repairs. It’s during rest that I make new, energetic white blood cells t o replace the old tired ones.’

• ‘Because my body can’t do this while I’m busy and because eight hours’ sleep isn’t enough time to do it in, I have to take time out for recreation.’

• ‘Recreation means exactly what it says, re-creation.’

• ‘By recreating myself in this way I’ll be more productive.’

• ‘I’ll do more in less time, with less mistakes.’

• ‘This will more than offset the rest time I’m taking.’

• ‘I’ll enjoy sitting down after the evening meal with a good book/ to listen to music/to watch TV/to have a pleasant conversation.’

• ‘I won’t waste the evening by doing the ironing, putting on a load of washing, doing paperwork.’

• ‘I’ll hire someone else to do the washing and ironing or I’ll organise the kids to do it.’

• ‘I’ll do the paperwork at work.’

By saying these things often enough for long enough it will start to filter through to your subconscious mind where all our habits are stored. At present, you have bad thinking habits.
