  • How to overcome burnout

    Prioritise Nourishment.   Get quality rest, eat food that will fuel your body's recovery, exercise gently, get fresh air and also nourish your heart. Acknowledge Your Part.   Face the real reasons you burned out. Build Some Guide Rails.   Establish new boundaries. It's about knowing the difference between the things you’re willing to go the extra mile for when life demands it, and the things that mean enough to you for you to enforce your boundaries. Don’t Do it Alone.  You don't need to do everything yourself. It’s okay to seek support. Give a Damn.  Sometimes, being in a bad place can be the perfect opportunity to make some new choices.
