Sinopsis

The Fatigue Book is a practical guide to managing chronic fatigue, whatever its cause, in order to enable recovery at a pace that works for the individual. It outlines 100 proven fatigue management tips drawn from the author’s personal and professional experience and is suitable for people of all ages affected by long COVID, CFS/ME and other chronic conditions, and for their family and friends. Whether someone is at the start of their recovery journey or has been doing this for some time, there is clear, practical advice based on a self-management approach that applies the principles of Pacing and Activity Management (but NOT Graded Exercise), as recommended by the latest NICE guidelines. Lydia Rolley brings her unique joint training and experience in occupational therapy and psychotherapy at a specialist NHS Fatigue clinic to provide an approach that recognises physical, mental and emotional/spiritual needs suited to the individual. Each chapter includes a range of Tips from which to choose plus Food for thought, Pause, and Mind, body and soul. Essential text is highlighted so that if you struggle with brain fog you can focus purely on that in the early stages of your recovery.

Acerca del autor

Lydia is a recently retired occupational therapist (DipCOT – Salford College of Occupational Therapy, 1982) and systemic psychotherapist/family therapist (MSc – Leeds University, 2011). Throughout her career she has worked in a variety of mental and physical health NHS settings, including over 15 years as part of a specialist regional chronic fatigue management service. As well as her NHS career, Lydia worked with her family in Croatia and Bosnia Herzegovina, supporting humanitarian aid causes during the Balkan war in the mid-1990s. Her youngest of four children, Rachel Alice Leggett, was born in Zagreb, Croatia. She is the illustrator of The Fatigue Book. Lydia has her own lived experience of CFS/ME and, when diagnosed many years ago, was given no support or guidance. She rarely talks about her experience, but it has fuelled her desire, over the years, to work collaboratively and enable people in their recovery journey. Sheffield has been her home for many years. She loves spending time with family and friends and exploring all that Sheffield and the surrounding beautiful countryside have to offer.
