I tell my son I am "very very busy" because I am resting aggressively! You have to get flat, get gravity off your body and really rest it. Put pillows under anything where there is muscle tension until you can float like a jelly fish. Pool floating works great, too! I rebound faster if I truly, truly rest my muscles, my mind, my emotions. Have to have the quiet in the room, the lights not bothering me, truly restful. The other thing I have done with good results is just go to my primary care doctor and tell her I am having a flare. She prescribes what I call a "poison ivy pack", a ten day thing where you are tapering down, of prednisone. For me, it's often enough to just hit the reset button and pull me up.
