Activity Pacing

Activity pacing means planning activity in consistent, moderate amounts based on what is sustainable on an average day, rather than on what feels possible on a good one.

How it works

The boom-and-bust pattern is near-universal in persistent discomfort: a good day invites catching up on everything, and the following days pay for it. Pacing sets the amount in advance and holds it on good days too, which is the hard part. Over time the ceiling tends to be less punishing than the swings.
