In this week’s episode we talk a bit more about burnout; what it is and how to notice the first signs of burnout and how to prevent it.
Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by excessive and prolonged stress. It occurs when we feel overwhelmed, unable to meet the constant demands and we feel emotionally drained.
In the current situation with the Corona virus we find ourselves in, it is understandable that burnout will soon be identified as the second pandemic. While working from home we forget to set boundaries, switch of and take the necessary breaks to re-charge.
To prevent burnout we must keep on moving; get that steps in. Sleep and a balanced diet is also important to prevent burnout. Most importantly, ask for help. Do not try to get through this on your own.
