Lesson 1
Understanding Fatigue And Low Energy
This lesson introduces a clear, compassionate understanding of fatigue and low energy. It explores why fatigue is not a motivation problem and why effort-based approaches often make symptoms worse. You’ll learn how fatigue commonly involves nervous system strain and why reducing pressure, rather than doing more, is often the first supportive step.
If you’d like a simple example of support on very low energy days, you may like the guided practice When You Are Tired: Start With The Breath.

Lesson 2
Why Gentle, Breath-Led Yoga Works
This lesson explains why gentle, breath-led approaches are often more supportive for fatigue than stronger or more demanding practices. It explores how subtle practices affect regulation, why effort can backfire, and how small changes can have meaningful effects when energy is limited.
To explore how gentle, carefully paced practice supports capacity without pushing, you may also like to my try my track "Building Capacity Without Crashing".

Lesson 3
How To Use This Course On Different Energy Days
This lesson offers practical guidance on how to use the course in a flexible, sustainable way. It explains why energy naturally fluctuates and how choosing practices based on capacity supports steadiness over time. The focus is on responsiveness rather than routine.
For a practical way to reflect on what fits your energy right now, you may like to try the track "Your Sustainable Practice Plan".

Lesson 4
Why The Breath Comes First On Tired Days
This lesson focuses specifically on why the breath is often the most accessible starting point when energy is very low. It explains why breath-based approaches require less effort than movement and why certain types of breathing are more supportive than others for fatigue.
If you’d like a practical example of starting with the breath, you may like to try the track "When You Are Tired: Start With The Breath".

Lesson 5
Small Movement Versus Stretching And Strengthening
This lesson explores why stretching and strengthening can be too demanding when energy is limited. It explains how small, low-load movement supports circulation and coordination without increasing strain, and why intent and scale matter more than intensity for fatigue.
To explore low-demand movement in practice, you may like the track "Micro-Movements For Low Energy".

Lesson 6
Rest Versus Collapse – How To Rest Effectively
This lesson examines why rest does not always feel restorative for people with fatigue. It explains the difference between supported rest and collapse, and why positioning, support, and intention affect how the system responds when energy is low.
If you’d like to explore supported rest practically, you may like to try the track "Resting Positions That Actually Help".

Lesson 7
Overwhelm And The Nervous System
This lesson reframes overwhelm as a nervous system response rather than a personal failure. It explains why fatigue increases load sensitivity and why grounding, steadiness, and reduced stimulation are often more supportive than effort or analysis.
For a grounding breath practice during overwhelm, you may like to try the track "Breath To Reduce Overwhelm".

Lesson 8
Stiffness As Protection, Not A Problem
This lesson explores stiffness as a protective response rather than something that needs fixing. It explains why forcing movement can increase resistance and how working with the body’s protective responses supports ease when energy is limited.
To explore gentle movement that respects stiffness, you may like my track "Gentle Mobility For Stiffness And Fatigue".

Lesson 9
Why Short Practices Are Often More Effective
This lesson explains why short practices are often better tolerated and more sustainable for fatigue. It explores tolerance, pacing, and delayed effects, and why appropriateness matters more than duration when energy is limited.
For an example of a brief supportive practice, you may like to try "A 3-Minute Rescue Practice".

Lesson 10
What Sustainable Practice Actually Looks Like
This final lesson brings the course together by redefining sustainability for fatigue. It focuses on adaptability, responsiveness, and working with capacity rather than routines or expectations, helping you relate to practice with less pressure over time.
If it feels relevant, you may like "A Gentle End-Of-Day Reset" as a low-demand way to support settling.
