Pedal Strike

I am new to full suspension. I rode rigid for a very long time and hard tails for quite a few years. My Habit 4 seems pretty prone to pedal strike. I am getting better at avoiding pedal strike and have played with suspension adjustments as well. Even with the suspension set to less sag than I prefer, I'd still like a bit more room to avoid pedal strike. It doesn't look like there is an option to adjust that (no flip chip or anything like that that I can see).

So without spending big bucks on longer travel suspension what options if any do I have? Or is it just a matter of being vigilant of where the pedals are rotated when rolling over roots and rocks?
