Thanks for all the info! I'm glad you found something that worked for you. I've been meditating for 6 months and I suppose it's the best way I've found to calm my body, along with slowing my breathing rate, but I certainly don't have the ability to completely and easily physically relax from that or something like visualizations yet. > I intend to get around to publishing extensively on the matter at some point. Please post on HN when you do! It sounds like your symptoms were a bit different (even between long covid sufferers, they seem to vary greatly), but I definitely understand the difficulty in not "overdoing it" whenever you feel a better than usual. Did you try yoga or other progressive exercises, or did you avoid those stressors until you felt better? Currently, I work out about to my limit of where I get some slight and brief symptoms, and that limit is slowly increasing. I've attempted months of taking it super easy, which brought on different forms of the same symptoms (the fight or flight response, altered breathing and heart rate and brain fog), so it seemed like I might as well just get the exercise.
