When I first came to PRC I would push myself and then crash. OT taught me to schedule breaks and listen to my body. I had never thought of using a timer, and the little trick of putting one foot up on the ledge to help with my posture and fatigue. I now use a planner so I’m not trying to do everything in one day.
