EP: 42 The burnout continuum – there is hope!

In this episode doctor Helen Kelly explains that if you feel like you're heading towards burnout you can also move the other way down the continuum towards energy and creativity. She explains that from the causes of burnout the easiest place we can take control is work recovery. Did you know that research says there are four things we should do to maximise our work recovery and the easiest one for us to take control of is psychological detachment? This means being able to switch off from work when at home. Want to know how? Listen to the full episode to discover this and many other golden nuggets such as contagion theory (what hormones and emotions are you giving off when you walk into school?), the power of small habits and your stress response versus relaxation response.
