⚡ Tami’s Favorite Things 2025: Apollo® Wearable + SmartVibes™⁠

If your nervous system is always stuck in fight-or-flight — this one’s for you. 💜⁠

The Apollo® Wearable + SmartVibes™ helps your body shift out of stress mode so you can finally relax, sleep deeply, and recover faster.⁠

When my Apollo arrived, I’d just come home from a long trip — tired, wired, and tense. Within minutes of putting it on, my body started to settle. That night, my sleep tracker showed a big drop in heart rate and a jump in HRV. I was hooked!⁠

Developed by neuroscientists, Apollo uses gentle, low-frequency vibrations to calm your nervous system and strengthen your resilience to stress. I wear mine on my ankle at night and my wrist during the day — it helps me stay grounded, focused, and sleep more deeply.⁠

My favorite feature, SmartVibes, detects when I start to wake up and gently lulls me back to sleep. And with fibro, that kind of restorative sleep is everything.⁠

TAMI⁠’S FAVORITE THINGS 2025: MY LATEST FIBRO-FRIENDLY FINDS⁠

Episode 171 of the Fibromyalgia Podcast® is live now!⁠

In today’s episode, I’m sharing some of my favorite things from this last year. That’s right — it’s a preview of Tami's Favorite Things for 2025.⁠

If you’re familiar with Oprah’s Favorite Things list, this is similar, but with more of a fibro focus.⁠

Every item on this list is something I've personally tested, used, and loved enough to recommend to my clients and to you. In fact, companies cannot pay to be on this list.⁠

These are the real deal! ⁠

They are tools that support better sleep, less pain, steadier energy, and add a little extra sparkle to your day. ⁠

I've grouped this year's list into three categories, Fibro Game-Changers, Everyday Comforts, and Daily-Life Helpers.⁠

For today's episode, I'm highlighting one favorite from each category — but make sure to grab the complete guide with ALL my curated picks, why I chose each item, and some direct purchasing links and discount codes where I have them.⁠

Today’s comes from Charlene in Canada. She says:

"Thank you for suggesting your YouTube channel. I love both podcasts and videos, so your YouTube channel has all the information I’ve been looking for and wondering about. I live in a rural area and the closest town is about 15-20 minutes. There are no support [groups] locally, only online. I’m so thankful and grateful I came across your website. I honestly don’t know how but I’m so glad I did."

Thanks so much for that, Charlene! And thanks for reminding ME what a great tool the YouTube channel can be!

Have you checked out my YouTube channel yet?⁠

You’ll find video interviews with doctors and other medical providers, as well as interviews with real people who have fibromyalgia and have found ways to feel better. ⁠

“No one person can do it all for you... So build yourself a team.”
Some people may be your emotional support — those you can go to when you're really struggling emotionally.

Maybe there are other friends who are up for social connection to help you keep from feeling alone.

You may need professionals as part of your team — therapists, doctors, spiritual advisors, a coach. Those professionals are also part of your team.

BTW — The cool thing about professionals — speaking as one 😉 — is that helping you is our job. I am ALWAYS on your side. It doesn't matter what I think. All that matters is what you want. I am a hundred percent here to support you, just like your therapist, and your doctors. We are always there to support you — no matter what is going on in our own lives!

Are you familiar with the Spoon Theory? I’m sure most of you are.

One of my favorite things to do with Christine Miserandino’s story is to act it out with people. I literally give them spoons, go through the spoon theory, and have them “spend” their spoons.

At one networking event, I gave everybody a different number of spoons to reflect how some of us wake up and have a lot of spoons, and some of us wake up and have very little. I had them stand up with all their spoons, and when they ran out of spoons, they had to sit down. Then, I went through the day: getting up, taking a shower, making breakfast, and so on.

Some people ran out of spoons after they took their shower, but before they had gotten dressed. I know you've been there — got out of the shower and said: “Oh my God, I'm so exhausted! I have to go right straight back to bed with the towel wrapped around me!” Everyone sat down at different times and only a few got all the way through the day.

This exercise helps people understand not only that not everybody is the same and how we have to make choices.

Most people understand the idea of budgeting your finances — but have you thought that you can budget your energy the same way?

This is a great way to explain people what fibromyalgia is like!

You only make so much money at your job. You only have so much money to spend throughout the month — and you have to choose what you're spending that money on.

Sure, you could go out and buy that brand new motorcycle or whatever, but then can you put food on the table and a roof over your head?

It's the same thing with our health and our fibro energy.

I always say you can do anything, but not everything all at once! We have to think about how we're budgeting our energy. And yes, we can use credit, we can borrow from tomorrow, but then that costs us more, right?

Just like in real life, if you use a credit card, you have to pay interest. In our fibro life, if we borrow from tomorrow's energy, that actually costs us more and it'll take longer for us to recover.

It’s okay to have boundaries. 💜⁠

You don’t owe anyone anything. This is your life, your body, your illness, your story.⁠

YOU get to set the rules. 💥⁠

In Episode 170 of the Fibromyalgia Podcast®, I share ways to help the people you love better understand fibromyalgia and what it really feels like.⁠

We also talk about how to decide how much to share — and who to share it with — because not everyone needs or deserves the full story.⁠

Sharing your story can help others understand, but it should always be on your terms. As much as you want, when you want.⁠

Practice saying, “No,” or “I simply can’t.” Boundaries protect your energy, your peace, and your health.⁠

You don’t owe anyone an explanation.⁠
You are not required to share more than you want to.⁠
You get to set the rules. Your life. Your body. Your health. Your story. 💜⁠

Want more ideas on how and when to share — and with whom? Watch on YouTube, or listen for free in your favorite podcast app or on my website at: FibromyalgiaPodcast.com/170⁠ ⁠

HOW DO I HELP PEOPLE I LOVE UNDERSTAND FIBROMYALGIA: ASK THE COACH⁠

Episode 170 of the Fibromyalgia Podcast® is live now!⁠

Have you ever wished people could truly understand what fibromyalgia feels like or what it's like to live with a condition that never really goes away?⁠

You are not alone.⁠

This is one of the most common things I hear from clients and listeners. How do I help the people I love understand fibromyalgia, because let's face it, fibro is an invisible illness.⁠

You can look perfectly fine on the outside while feeling like you've been run over by a truck on the inside and trying to explain that to someone who has never experienced chronic pain feels impossible, which is why we're talking about it today.⁠

I'm sharing my favorite tools, resources, and ways to help others understand. We'll talk about how to know how much to share and who to share it with because not everyone needs or deserves the full story.⁠

Plus, I'll show you how to create a simple fibro cheat sheet that makes it easier for others to support you when you need it most.⁠
