Managing energy when you’re sensitive or dealing with post-viral fatigue can feel like a balancing act. That’s why I’ve developed a technique I call “pre-grounding” to prepare myself before high-energy events and a no-guilt cooldown afterward. Pre-grounding involves connecting with the earth and centering my energy before diving into any activity. Afterward, I honor my body’s need for rest without rushing or stressing about it. It’s about listening to my body, trusting the process, and giving myself the time I need to recharge—guilt-free. This has been a game-changer for maintaining balance and avoiding those dreaded crashes.

Living Post-Viral in the Netherlands: A Journey of Challenges and Resilience
Living with post-viral syndrome and electro-sensitivity is a unique challenge. The Dutch healthcare system, though well-organized, often lacks the nuance needed for conditions like Epstein-Barr. Add the relentless fatigue and the invisible storms of EMFs, and healing feels like navigating an uphill marathon. Yet, it’s taught me resilience, self-compassion, and the value of creating a safe space with EMF protection. Progress isn’t linear, but every step counts. Through my journey, I’ve learned to celebrate small wins, set boundaries, and embrace healing on my own terms. Together, we can redefine recovery and remind the world that healing isn’t one-size-fits-all.
