Pacing and Exercise Workshops

February 22, 2021 / Charles W. Lapp, MD / News

Many patients have asked about online support programs, especially since we are all “quarantined.” If something like that appeals to you, I suggest looking into programs provided by Lorrie Rivers, who has had more than 15 years experience with ME/CFS patients. You are too late for her free “Workshop on Self-Pacing” (February 18), but she will be repeating this program on April 1. On March 4 she will host “Deep Diving for Emotional Relief.” Details can be found here.

Lorrie also offers a “Relief and Transformation” program that involves seven online modules as well as virtual meetings with advice and Q&A.

For those who would like to explore yoga and strength training, she offers a workshop (for a very reasonable fee) that is designed to suit all levels of activity. Lastly, for those who are Post-COVID Long Haulers she offers a “Long COVID Recovery Support Course.” Look into her programs at Living from Inspiration. I’m sure she can inspire YOU with one of her programs.
