If you’re in a migraine flare right now, I want to start with this:

You don’t need to figure everything out today.

When a migraine flare hits, it can feel like things spiral quickly—pain increases, energy drops, and even simple decisions start to feel overwhelming.

And in those moments, it’s really easy to think:
“What am I supposed to do right now?”

If that’s where you are, I want to offer something different.

Not a list of things to get right.
Not more pressure to manage everything perfectly.

Just a few gentle ways you might make this moment a little easier.

I put them together here in this blog:

👉 Read: How to Manage a Migraine Flare: 5 Gentle Ways to Feel Better​

Inside, I share a few simple ways to support yourself during a flare, including:

• how medication can be one form of support (not something you’re “failing” at if you use it)
• gentle ways to calm your nervous system while resting in bed
• how to reduce sensory overload when everything feels too much
• what it can look like to let yourself receive help
• and why recovery doesn’t have to be rushed

You don’t need to use all of it.
Honestly, you might just pick one idea—or not do anything with it until later.

Both are okay.

If you’re in a flare right now, you might save this and come back to it when you have more space.

And if you’re not in one, this is something you can keep in your back pocket for the next time you need a little more support.

💜 If you want something more guided and simple for those moments when your brain feels foggy or overwhelmed, I created a Migraine Flare Toolkit.

It includes gentle yoga nidra, somatic practices, and bed-based support you can use without needing to think too much.

It’s $7 and designed for the “I just need something to help right now” moments.

You don’t have to push through migraine flares alone or perfectly.

Sometimes it’s just about making things a little more comforting.

Take care,
Adriane

PS I finally recovered from my own month-long migraine flare after I got the flu. Check out what I did to break the flare so I could go out and party in this YouTube short (and subscribe to my channel while you're there!).
