Eat Blog Talk 547: 5 Steps to Recover from Burnout (Mindset & Self-Care)
Burnout. Every time it hits, I act like I'm all surprised. Like, what? How can this happen? Have you ever felt the same? As I'm currently going through a bout of burnout, I want to share 5 ways in which you can recover from it.
If there is one lesson I have learned about burnout, it is: Once it happens you can't undo what has been done. And you can't rush your recovery. You'll need to let it run its course. There are ways in which you can help yourself recover quicker. And this is what I'd like to share with you: practical ways to get back on track with your work and prevent burnout from happening again.
Action Plan:
1 - Acknowledge when you feel burnt out and surrender yourself to recovery.
2 - Pump the brakes, slow down work, and have grace for the healing process.
3 - Prioritize daily acts of self-care to help with recovery and continue making this part of your routine.
4 - Seek support from loved ones (or professional if needed) by openly discussing feelings of burnout.
5 - Reevaluate your goals and plans to figure out how to prevent future burnout - journal about your main goals for next year and what you need to prioritize now to achieve them.
