This winter: Small steps

As the nights draw in and the days get colder, many of us start to feel the impact, physically and emotionally. For people living with psoriatic arthritis, this time of year can bring extra challenges: sore joints, fatigue, and the temptation to hibernate until spring.

It’s easy to put exercise on hold when energy levels dip, but gentle movement can really help ease stiffness and lift your mood. That’s why PAPAA’s free interactive online iPhysio programme can be helpful.

It is designed to make staying active achievable, whatever the weather. It offers simple, guided routines you can do at home with no special equipment, just small steps that help keep your joints and confidence moving.

Taking care of ourselves isn’t only about treatments or appointments. It’s also about making time for rest, balance, and self-kindness. Listening to your body, pacing when needed, and moving when you can, all play a part in managing psoriatic disease well.

So, as we head towards the end of the year, think about how you can build a little more movement into daily life. Whether it’s following a few stretches from iPhysio, a short walk, or simply taking time to unwind, every bit counts toward a healthier, more balanced you.
