I always notice that I get headaches, pull up my shoulders and make tension in the muscles in my bum if I am pushing myself through. So I learned myself to check if I am making tension in these areas more regularly. When I notice I am pushing myself through I make deadlines for finishing what I am doing or stop and finish it another time, or take a break.
To give myself time I create a moment for myself. I take a walk, preferably in a forest that is able to give me the feeling trees are big and I am small and trees are hugging me, but in general fresh air and change of scenery is helping me a lot. I listen to singing birds. I make tea and snuggle up on the coach with a nice book. I go to bed early. Or I ride my bike. Sometimes it also just helps to be alone and it does not matter what I will be doing. If the dis-ease is more emotional or panicky it might help to go to a friend for (emotional) support.
