Dealing with lupus fatigue

  A big part of living my life with lupus & other auto immune illnesses is dealing with fatigue. Fatigue is not just being tired. Its much more. It’s feels like I have something slowing me down, preventing me from doing what I want to accomplish for the day. It can be very annoying plus depressing. It seems like a big percentage of my life I am resting. I try to make this down time as positive as I can. Here are some of the things I do to battle the fatigue.

Naps, I’ve learned that even a 10 minute one can help me feel more refreshed. 

Showers, I prefer warm water because it soothes my achy bones & muscles 

Facial masks are a good part of skin care. Remember the skin is our largest organ. We should take care of it the best we can.

Staying hydrated

Following a nutritional diet

Watch a favorite TV show, movie or YouTube video

Journaling is such a great way of relieving the pent up stress of fatigue 

What are the ways you deal with fatigue? 

Welcome!

 Welcome to my blog. If I was to be honest I have tried blogging before. At that time I hadn't truly found my passion. But over the last few months I have done some soul searching. I've come to a point in my life where I enjoy expressing myself & sharing my passion for skincare, beauty and lupus awareness. I have a YouTube channel (link is on side bar) where I talk about beauty & skincare. But some reason I have been holding back on sharing what life is like living with lupus & other autoimmune illnesses. Finding beauty in the world around me has helped me deal with struggles of chronic illness. I am here to share this journey of chronic illness all while trying to find the perfect lipstick or cute new outfit. I hope that you will come along with me. Let's have some fun!
