In our work together, I will
Our work is going to be more than just telling you to rest or sleep more or quit your job—because while that might feel tempting to give into those rage quitting daydreams, it is often not possible or the best approach for everyone.
I won’t lie-it is hard and can feel scary to address burnout. Your nervous system and body has gotten used to going through stress cycles and being in a state of urgency, doing, going, moving, performing, producing. So to ask it to do something different-it is going to feel uncomfortable, but that does not mean it is bad/wrong/not okay. We will work to build up your ability to be able to rest without feeling guilty, relax, have fun--sounds odd to have to relearn how to relax and even have fun, and it is necessary when we haven’t flexed that muscle in a while. Going slowly with this process allows our mind and body to adjust to it, digest it, and not get overwhelmed (which might happen if we go too quickly).
