If you feel overwhelmed, take a step back and breathe. You don’t need to win the war today. You only need to win the battle.
Instead of trying to get as much done as possible, just focus on 1% improvement every day. This will help prevent burnout and accumulate real results over time.

Mental practice involves mentally rehearsing something before you actually do it. Professional athletes are known to implement mental practice to improve their sport, and stroke survivors can also benefit from this technique.
Try mentally practicing your rehab exercises for 5 minutes before you practice them in real life. Studies have shown that visualizing yourself moving helps activate neuroplasticity the same way that physically moving does.
Mental practice is especially helpful for survivors who are affected by paralysis and cannot move without assistance yet. It provides a way to help the brain rewire itself without requiring movement. This technique can also be combined with passive rehab exercises where someone is moving your affected limb for you.

18 Ways to Improve Cognitive Problems after Stroke | ARNI
arni.uk.com
A change in cognitive ability is common after a stroke. Did you know that as many as two-thirds of stroke survivors may experience cognitive impairment as a result of their stroke.? If this is you…
For the results you deserve (as this is your life) you ideally need to train one to one with a trainer until you can learn enough to train yourself, or you must train yourself. That’s the bottom line!
Call us on 0203 053 0111, or email support@arni.uk.com to find out if there's a trainer near you who can help you.

So where do you start with all this? Well, this is actually pretty easy. Start where you are, and just improve from there. If you can walk for five metres with a trainer or therapist holding your hand lightly, then do those five, and make sure to do six, even seven the next time. Then once you reach ten, go back and get the therapist or trainer to stand close, but not touch you. You are on a mission to do things yourself, progressively. This means that you need to make things tougher for yourself each time, but not too hard that you risk failing each time.
And if you need some help, call us on 0203 053 0111 or email support@arni.uk.com We have trainers throughout the country.

After orthotics yesterday we discussed no AFO and a knee brace (while I do eversion stuff, and hip, calf and knee strength stuff still)..... I'm wearing good boots that are supporting my ankle too and basically I think I'm relearning to walk after 22mths nearly using an AFO!
The more you attempt to move, the better your movement will get.
So keep- moving!!

Apart from ramping up physical activity and cardio activity, by far the most important part of recovery from many stroke survivors’ points of view is rehabilitation. Hence ARNI’s concentration on teaching you techniques to tackle hundreds of improvement activities including weight-bearing, balance and gait-control (including how to cope with drop-foot and reducing the required supporting power of the AFO over time, etc), coping strategies (such as getting down and up from the floor unaided and emergency action avoidance techniques, turning etc), upper limb training (tackling spasticity. flaccidty etc) one to one, with the help of a physio or trainer, as well as how to train for cardio effect independently at home.
