Tips for managing moderate fatigue

Here are some tips to try to get rest when you’re moderately tired

• Insert a nap into your day (even if it’s only 15 minutes long)
• If napping isn’t for you, take a quiet break (without a computer, TV or mobile phone, this will allow your brain to rest).
• Take a shower
• Do personal care (dressing, makeup, shaving)
• Arrange your environment so that you are not exposed to noise, excessive light, or a lot of visual information.
• Avoid doing tasks that can tire you physically or mentally in a row. Take a break between two tasks or postpone them to the next day.
• Ask for help or delegate the tiring tasks.

Choose a distracting activity, for example from the suggestions below:

• Change your mind in 5 minutes
• Change your mind in 15 minutes
• Take a break for an hour or more
