Still Stuck in CFS Push–Crash Cycles?
Why traditional pacing isn’t enough — and 3 simple shifts to calm, steady energy you can trust.

I know how frustrating and heartbreaking it can be to keep crashing. This toolkit is what I built to change that.
A gentle, structured approach to pacing that brings together clinical insight, lived experience, and a coaching model that's helped many people stabilise their energy.
CLAIM THE CFS PACING TOOLKIT FOR ONLY £97
A practical, compassionate toolkit, built from real patterns I've seen again and again in my 1:1 coaching, with pacing principles in line with NICE guidance.
You'll learn to understand your energy, regulate your nervous system, and build a sustainable rhythm that supports long-term recovery, without pushing harder, ignoring symptoms, or forcing progress you're not ready for.

If you're someone living with ME/CFS, long COVID, PoTS, or chronic fatigue from a similar condition, and any of this sounds familiar:
...then the CFS Pacing Toolkit was built with exactly this in mind.
"No matter what stage you are at of your own personal journey, this course will prove beneficial, the content is helpfully broken down into bitesize pieces to allow you to go at your own pace."
— Carole, CFS Pacing Toolkit student

• Do less
• Rest more
• Stay within limits
• Guesswork
• Fear-driven
• Inconsistent
• Fear of worsening symptoms
• Nervous system stuck in threat mode
• Guilt for resting
• Pressure to “make progress”
• Panic after a slightly better day, fearing you’ve overdone it
When these pieces aren’t addressed, the crash cycle continues.
You’ve just never been shown a calm, clear structure.
Here's what changes with the right structure.


This shift is possible, and it starts with a clear, structured approach.

"Jo helped me understand the nuances between pacing, NLP and nervous system work. Previously pacing felt like a danger signal to my nervous system, I applied it rigidly and was so scared to make a mistake. I felt lost, confused and stuck. Through this work, I learnt how to pace in a positive way, allowing my nervous system time to build capacity without overwhelm."
— Liv, CFS Freedom Client

"With Jo's support, I've been able to start doing things I didn't think would be possible for a long time, such as walking, gentle exercise, household tasks, and even beginning to explore a return to work. I no longer fear 'crashes' in the way I used to, which has been life changing."
— Lauren, CFS Freedom Client

"Jo helped me shift how I think about energy, rest, and progress, as well as the inevitable setbacks. She helped me get clearer on what really matters to me in this new phase of life, which has made it much easier to make decisions about how I manage work, home, and recovery, rather than letting fear and illness drive my choices."
— Stacey, CFS Freedom Client

"Jo's CFS Pacing Toolkit is excellent.

“This course helped me finally feel in control of my energy. The pacing strategies and mindset tools are practical and easy to follow, and I feel calmer and more confident in my recovery.”
Jo, UK
Start pacing with calm, clarity, and confidence. Move from fear to steady, predictable energy.

The Pacing Confidence Method™ moves you through six stages, what I call the CFS Recovery Progress Pathway: Awareness → Stability → Regulation → Integration → Growth → Confidence. By following this structured approach, you'll learn to understand your body's signals and respond effectively.
If you're tired of the unpredictable push-crash cycle, this toolkit provides the practical tools and compassionate guidance you need to break free. It's not about rigid rules; it's about finding a sustainable rhythm that works for your unique nervous system.
Imagine waking up and being able to plan your day with confidence, trusting that your body will support you and knowing exactly how to navigate your energy limits. .
This course is for you if you’re new to pacing, or if you’ve tried pacing before and found it hard to make it work in real life.
Please reach us at jo@jothomascoaching.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
This course is perfect for anyone living with ME/CFS, long COVID, or POTS, especially if you’re:
🌿 Stuck in the cycle of crash → rest → crash again
🌿 Craving clarity, structure, and a step-by-step way to rebuild energy
🌿 Ready to explore a safer, supportive approach with proven pacing strategies
You’ll move through six core modules, plus a gentle bonus module, entirely at your own pace. Many people spend around 1–2 weeks with each module, though you’re encouraged to go slower or faster depending on what your body needs.
You’ll also have access to optional guides, blog posts, and a relaxing audio to deepen your understanding and support your recovery journey — all offered in a way that feels spacious rather than overwhelming.
Absolutely. This course was designed to meet you where you are — whether you’re completely new to pacing or have been experimenting for a while.
You’ll have access to clear instructions and exercises—but if you want 1:1 support, you can book a connection call to continue your journey.
The toolkit is self-study, so it doesn't include live feedback on your specific situation. If you want a plan built around you directly, CFS Freedom or the Integration Package (available once you've completed the toolkit) will serve you better. Many people start here and move into 1:1 support later, if and when it feels right.
Most pacing advice stops at "do less." This toolkit gives you a structure for why pacing alone often isn't enough, and adds the mindset and nervous system pieces that are usually missing from generic advice or forum tips.
That's common, and it doesn't mean you did anything wrong. Often what's missing isn't effort, it's structure, or the mindset and nervous system layer underneath the pacing itself. This toolkit is built to fill exactly that gap, developed from direct 1:1 client work that has unearthed common patterns that support and hinder recovery.
