THE ENERGISERAlways doing 🤸‍♂️You probably can’t remember the last time you sat down and did nothing. Eternally resourceful, you are always on the go with a list of tasks that you whip through with ease on a daily basis.You are a practical person who takes challenges in your stride. Nothing seems to phase you and you tackle each day with enthusiasm, not phased by the number of everyday responsibilities you handle. You thrive in a culture of hard work and progress, probably having a list of goals you are working towards.But… when you don’t take the time to rest and re-energise, you feel yourself slipping into burnout quite quickly. Those responsibilities begin to weigh heavy on you, making you feel physically exhausted and lacklustre about your busy schedule.When you dismiss the need for rest and relaxation, you are inviting stress and overwhelm into your life. And those are two very unwanted guests!To keep away from burnout island, you need to create space for rest and stillness. You could probably seriously benefit from a digital detox or a day of nothing. Yes, for a whole day, ditch the schedule and your phone to focus on something that will fill your cup.It might be quiet time in nature, reading a great book, baking up a storm, or embarking on a craft project. It should be something that removes you from the ‘doing’ that dominates your daily life.If you are finding it hard to do that, then speaking to a Burnout Coach like myself can help you find ways to prioritise yourself. I can share some simple strategies that will give you the renewed energy to continue all the ‘doing’ you have to do!Who am I to tell you about Burnout?

You're the... Unstoppable Force

THE UNSTOPPABLE FORCEAlways achieving 🏅People probably think you are pretty lucky. From their perspective, it looks like you have it all figured out. And they are right! You have strong visions and goals that you are always striving to achieve. Ambition is your middle name and you are full of unfaltering energy that impresses people on a daily basis.But… you do worry a lot. There is a nagging fear of failure in the back of your mind which can easily dampen your energy, forcing you to dig deep and engage levels of determination that feel draining.When things get too much, you will crash. And you will crash hard. Instead of acting with purpose and drive, you will feel doubt and refuse help from those around you as you feel you should be able to handle everything yourself.To avoid sinking into burnout, it is important to accept help when it is offered. You also need to ensure you ground yourself each day to remind you that you can do anything you set your mind to, as long as you don't take on too much at once!Try physical activities that aren’t competitive or achievement focused. These are things that will calm your nervous system and help you unwind. A walk or a run in nature can be a helpful way to reset, gardening, swimming or yoga are also great ways to re-energise. Don’t forget to be mindful and present in the moment also. It is tempting to always look to the future for your next project or achievement. But, focusing on the now as well as the future will help you to avoid burnout.If you are finding it hard to do that, then speaking to a Burnout Coach like myself can help you find ways to prioritise yourself. I can share some simple strategies that will give you the renewed energy to continue smashing your goals!Who am I to tell you about Burnout?

Your the Brainstormer...
Image Source
THE BRAINSTORMER Always thinking 🤔Does your brain ever stop? Probably not. You are a problem solver. And in order to do that, you always have to be thinking about something.Quite frankly, you are yet to come across a problem you can’t solve or make better. You are always coming up with effective solutions and ideas that people love!But… because your brain is always thinking about something, it can be hard to switch it off. Then, you find yourself becoming obsessive, worrying about everything, feeling foggy, or struggling to concentrate on what's in front of you.This constant overthinking will take you straight to burnout island. To avoid this, you need to consciously get out of your own head, otherwise you will be in the thick of mental burnout.You can’t just stop thinking though! So, tasks that consume your whole focus will be great to ground you in the moment and break that habit of a constantly racing mind. Physical movement is really helpful, but it has to be something you will enjoy. Perhaps a sport, dancing, or some kind of group activity. Things that engage your full attention are also great - think puzzles, crosswords, sudoku or brain teasers.If you are finding it hard to step out of your own thoughts, then speaking to a Burnout Coach like myself can help you find ways to prioritise yourself. I can share some simple strategies that will give you the renewed energy to continue focusing your thoughts!Who am I to tell you about Burnout?
