What have you done to prevent burnout today? Preventing Burnout at 7 Cups

self care

I cut my task I needed to do in half today. Time to relax between task.

I took some time for myself today. This morning I took my dogs out for a nice walk at a local beauty spot and then later met a friend for lunch. 🌹

I listened to my body and did my work very slowly today. I took time for healthy meals, made sure I stayed hydrated and also talked with my family :) I stayed fairly sill most of the day but managed a short stretch with my meditation practice. Burnout recovery is constantly evaluating your body while maintaining good habits that fuel your recovery.

i was barely on cups today and will probably not do much tomorrow either

After a week of continuous exams, I took a self-care break before approaching the international exams :)

I spent time with my dogs who always make me laugh and feel less stress. I also watched a comedy special from a favorite comedian, and when my sister dropped my son off I was able to talk to her for a bit and see my nieces. My older niece is so funny and her little sister is adorable (and with their Mom there they weren't my responsibility, lol, so no stress).

Previously I've taken a 3 month break from 7Cups to focus on school :)

I took time to do some personal reading, took time with friends and did some exercise.

@Hope Hi :) I've been working really hard at my self-care activities! I have mild anxiety about schoolwork, and taking breaks has been really hard for me for a long time. I've been making an effort in the past few months to do them more often, and they have really helped my mental health. It gives me time and space to de-stress and reset by doing something that makes me feel happy, before going back to my schoolwork.
