I’ve been trying to figure out “pacing” more, and this was very helpful. Curious about only 2-3 days per month of full rest? What happens if you did more — eg, like 2 days/week? Can you have too much rest?

Presently I try to schedule 1-2 "rest" days a week to hold myself in check and avoid crashing. When I feel good I still, 4 years later, forget to keep it slow and wind up with a crash again, like the universe continually reminds me! What a cycle. The holidays were brutal, it took 10 days to recover, but I knew that in advance and didn't schedule anything for a week. I am so glad they are over and life gets back to my version of normal. I don't think I can get too much rest, only because life goes on and I still need to manage my home, grocery shop cut my hair, go to appointments. What does help is only scheduling 1 thing a day-sometimes life gets in the way of that and I pay for it but I am glad I know what to expect now.
