"Prioritize listening to your body's signals of fatigue or discomfort. The goal is to nourish, not punish. Focus on consistency with gentle movement rather than intensity, allowing your nervous system to gradually downshift and heal."
Gentle exercise, like restorative movement, helps regulate the nervous system, reduces cortisol levels, improves sleep quality, and releases endorphins without overtaxing an already depleted system. It fosters a sense of agency and calm.
Focus on very low intensity, where you can maintain a conversation comfortably. The goal is relaxation and gentle movement, not pushing your limits. If you feel increased fatigue or stress, scale back immediately. Think 'movement as medicine,' not 'workout as punishment.'
Aim for daily, short sessions (15-30 minutes) of restorative movement. Consistency is more beneficial than infrequent, longer sessions. Listen to your body and feel free to take rest days when needed, perhaps focusing on just breathing exercises.
Initially, it's best to avoid high-intensity interval training (HIIT), heavy weightlifting, or prolonged endurance activities that can further elevate cortisol and sympathetic nervous system activity. Focus on parasympathetic-dominant activities that promote rest and digest.
