@Hope
I didn't take a member chat today and focused on school work.
@considerateParadise6717 Nice job! :) Sometimes we have to decide what our priority is right now.
@Hope
I have reduced my hosting of Sharing Circle to a more reasonable frequency and I am sticking to it. :)
@InquireWithin That's awesome that you've figured out what your limits are and what you can reasonable stick to. :)
Today I took a break from my 7cups roles to take care of real life issues. It was nice taking care of my IRL needs and being able to accept that I needed a break!
@fairyava It's important to take care of your own needs! :) Good for you!
I didn’t take on any member chats so I can focus on coursework and my business
@SupportCat101 Nice job :)
@Hope
@FlourishingDimensions Sorry! I hit the enter button too quickly :D I took today as a personal growth day and concentrated on reading and other types of personal training.
@Hope
Set boundaries on how much work I will do today: i.e. what tasks I'll be doing and how much time I'll spend on each.
@jovialButterfly6752
Again, thank you for introducing this growth path. This Burnt out preventation path is really helping me to have a clearer perspective.

@Hope
These are what I have done over the past few days:
• Write down all of my current roles + time commiment + evaluate my roles using the given form.
• Make clear to all my members and leaders that I'm having a self-care weekends break.
• Asked to reduce my current workload
• Seek help from peer supporter
• Log onto my member account for further supports.
• Encourage other listener peers to self-care together such as reminding each other to meditate, drink water.
• Taking part in self-care activities such yoga, drawing, eating healthy.
How about you? @Star996 @theriverissinging @richuyulin
@kindLemonade thanks for tagging me, kind!
Something I have tried to do is to note down what I'm supposed to do on here. It really helps me stay on track and not let myself sink in too much and zone out xD (it's because I love being here!) Thanks! ❤️
@kindLemonade those are so many lovely ways to prevent burnout! ❤️ You're awesome 😊
@kindLemonade Thank you for tagging me in this. For me, I've backed away from all my optional hosting sessions for focus on my two sessions for 24 hour support marathon event. And probably will take it easy on hosting this weekend as I need to get LDP course 5 done. :)
@Hope I've taken frequent breaks and narrowed down my tasks to only the most necessary!
@NinaBee
yay to self care 👌
@Hope
To prevent burnout today, I cut myself short on my time talking to members and focussed on school work.
@Hope Today I plan to go to sleep instead of taking chats tonight or instead of doing another Guide. I really like the guides though! So much that I want to do, so little time when I have the energy for it... :( But I think that makes it even more important for me to get good sleep, so that I will have the energy to continue tomorrow. :)
