We have been talking about how activity can make you breathless and ways to cope with this.
The second idea is to break up the task. This means to spread it out over several days, do a bit in the morning and then finish after lunch, or do one bit and delegate another bit to a family member or service provider.
For example, cleaning the house can be overwhelming but if you delegate the once a fortnight floor clean to a service and potter each day for 15 min to declutter or dust then the task becomes doable.
Another example is to wash your smalls in a bucket whilst you are seated in the shower. Give them a swish round with your feet, gentle squeeze and hang on the laundry stand in the sun. Larger items can go in the machine when family drop by to help.
