Classic Pacing for a Better Life with ME is a self-help book which
explains pacing and how it can be applied to daily life. Although
aimed at patients, the book can also be of interest to
professionals. Pacing is a coping strategy used in illnesses that
cause low energy levels. It consists of splitting activities into
small chunks so that symptoms are not worsened, as well as
alternating activity and rest to maintain energy levels throughout
the day. Pacing can be done in a variety of ways, and there are
several different tools which can be of help. Classic Pacing for a
Better Life with ME presents a full range of strategies to enable
the reader to find the ones that suit their situation. It covers
all degrees of illness severity and there is a special chapter on
how to pace education, making the book useful to young readers. The
first part of the book covers basic pacing, and is well suited to
beginners, whereas the second part covers advanced pacing, which is
relevant to patients who have been ill for a long time and have
tried many ways to improve their situation. The third part of the
book consists of chapters on different themes, such as how to pace
social activities and big events. Great care has been taken to
ensure that the book is as easy to read as possible. All the
chapters begin with a summary. This means that even people who can
only read very small amounts of text can still benefit from the
book. In addition, all the basics are covered in Chapter One, which
means that the reader can get going straight away without having to
read the entire book first. Each chapter can be read on its own
like an article. The detailed table of contents makes it easy to
find the sections that are most relevant to the reader's needs. The
language of the book is reader friendly with everyday words and
short sentences. Although the book is geared particularly towards
people with ME, much of the content is general enough to also be
relevant to people with other illnesses that cause low levels of
energy.
