Mindset Medicine with Dr. Tanya Berfield | Burnout, Nervous System & Inner Work

If you have tried everything and you are still exhausted, this episode is for you.You have read the books. You know what burnout looks like. You might even know exactly what you are supposed to do about it. And yet nothing is actually shifting. That is not a willpower problem. That is a nervous system problem.In this episode I sit down with Layne Burkette, licensed professional counselor, somatic therapist, and nervous system educator, to talk about why understanding burnout is not the same as healing from it. Layne spent years watching clients leave therapy with all the right tools and change nothing, because the body was not safe enough to let them apply what they knew. That gap between knowing and doing is exactly what somatic work closes.We also do two live nervous system resets together that you can use right now, in sixty seconds, wherever you are.In this episode we cover:-Why you cannot talk your way out of burnout, no matter how much self-awareness you have-What somatic therapy actually does that talk therapy alone cannot-The real reason burnout keeps coming back even when you are doing everything right-How to regulate your nervous system in sixty seconds using breath, movement, and one simple phrase-Why your calm is your kids' calm, and what that actually looks like in practice-How to find the self-care practices that work for your body, your season of life, and your nervous systemIf you are the woman who looks fine and leads well and holds everything together, this one is for you.Connect with Layne Burkette: ⁠lifebalancebeyou.com | Instagram: @lifebalancebeyouWork with Dr. Tanya Berfield: Book the Emotional ER Intensive: drtanyab.com/er Subscribe to Mindset Medicine on Substack: substack.com/@drtanyaberfield
