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 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).

@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.

Today, I took the time I needed to relax so I could be refreshed for the week moving forward. I did some low-stress chores today.

Today I have taken the morning off cups, to do some self care and go on a walk :)

I worked on staying in bed, without any strings or conditions attached. To allow myself all the time I needed to go and take on tasks. Just allowing myself the freedom to say no to responsibilities and saying yes to more self care was my way of managing burnout for today

I so seldom feel burnout these days. I make it a point to pace myself and find that as a professional, saying 'NO' is one of the best things to learn to do. When I feel overwhelmed, I stop, reflect and meditate. I am not a listener, so I need not take a break from 7 Cups.

Today I painted a canvas to take my mind off of all the other issues going on in my life so I can deal with them tomorrow with full force again!

I had taken a mini break from Saturday to Sunday, from accepting member chat requests.

I created a member account and connected with a listener!

I focused on my growth path.
