About this listen
In these times of unprecedented stress, burnout, mental exhaustion, depression and fatigue Pace Yourself offers a powerful lifeline in the form of pacing, a simple science-based tool, to help restore joy, energy and balance in our lives.
Written by Amy Arthur, an award-winning writer and science journalist, Arthur shares not just the science of pacing and how it works, but also shows how to use pacing in our daily lives to thrive, not just survive. She also shares her own pacing journey, explaining how it helped her manage the chronic, energy-limiting condition called ME that she was diagnosed with as a teenager.
Unpacking all aspects of personal energy and how we make, spend and save it, Arthur will help listeners go from tired-all-the-time to focused and energised by prioritising what matters and adopting energy-building habits and lifestyle hacks - all with the help of pacing.
Why burn out when you can pace yourself and live a successful, fulfilling life?
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Pacing for Everyone?
Unfortunately I have ME/CFS after contracting Covid on a long-haul flight. I have been living a boom and bust energy lifestyle ever since. I learned a lot from this book and I was able to implement changes quite quickly. I never considered separating physical, mental and emotional energy as I believed that fatigue was just an overall fatigue. I now think of my three 'energy areas' as individual batteries and I take the time to find out what discharges and recharges each one. This really has changed my point-of-view as I can label friends as dischargers or rechargers when it comes to emotion for example. I have been working through this exercise for each of my 'batteries'. I now take more time to find joy (recharge) rather than putting it off into the future, one that will never happen. The chapters on The Happiness of Energy and Time and Its Limits were particularly helpful and at times I thought the author was speaking directly to me.
I highly recommend this book even if you do not have an underlying illness as you may be surprised what you can learn and implement to try to flatten a life than may be a roller-coaster.
The author narrates the book and she is very listenable and soothing. I would happily listen to other titles narrated by her as she strikes such a good balance of keeping you calm but not too calm that you fall asleep.
I will re-listen as there is so much good information and I doubt I will have taken it all in.
Thank you
