This is a great read if you find that you are staying up late and resisting going to bed. I know that I do this sometimes just to give myself some 'time' when I had a particularly busy day, good reminder of boundaries and good self care. We all know the importance of sleep for our bodies and minds.

Is something stopping you from getting the sleep you know you need?

More than ever, let's tune into ourselves body and mind and watch out for 'burnout'. Learn to say no, take up hobbies and interests, get outside with nature and know that you are never alone. We can also watch out for these signs in each other ☺️

Burnout. It’s a term we’ve started to hear a lot more recently, as we’ve begun to open up the conversation on workplace wellbeing, and the importance of finding balance in our lives

I work with so many people that strive for unrealistic personal goals, worn out by trying to fulfil unrealistic expectations that they set for themselves. So often these expectations are formed in our early years, maybe even inherited from parental and authority figures. Social media can add to the stresses and strains of how we think we should be living, thinking and feeling. Some days are challenging, demanding, routine and we feel irritated and fed up - surely this is all part of being human, right? What we might really need is to chat honestly about our day, wear our Pj's, watch nonsense on TV whilst eating popcorn, spend time on hobbies - guilt free! How do we stop trying to be perfect, stop teaching our children that they need to be perfect? How do we break the cycle and free ourselves? Compassion for others, compassion for ourselves, time to connect with who we really are and what we really need.

New research suggests that breaking the cycle could help recovery.
