Advice & Tips
Due to neuralgia I practice yoga sporadically as and when I can but feel better if I can practice regularly whether for 10 minutes almost every day or for 1 hour 2 or 3 times a week. Benefits are holistic - I feel energised and soothed physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. This helps me to manage the neuralgia symptoms more effectively by feeling powerful instead of powerless against the pain. Finding the time is up to me as it can be 10 minutes or longer according to my schedule and energy levels. However, when I am experiencing intense pain it is harder to feel motivated or to physically maintain a practice.

Advice & Tips
I think I found that CFS/ME is a problem, so overdoing anything made me sick - however doing gentle yoga was VERY helpful and pleasant when only dealing with FM symptoms. I did basic moves (child, table, cobra, etc) in my home and breathing exercises for about 20 minutes. Recently, I have had the most lengthy amt of days where PRFs are above 40 so I have stopped this treatment. I am doing very gentle stretching daily, and moving when I can to tolerance.

Advice & Tips
Take it slow and if you can afford it, take a beginner yoga class from a licensed instructor. Otherwise, get an inexpensive video from the store or check one out at the library and start with beginner and slowly move your way up.
