The Burnout Workbook

Advice and Exercises to Help You Unlock the Stress Cycle

Summary

Solve the cycle of overwhelm and exhaustion, and empower yourself to create positive change.

This interactive workbook from the experts behind the New York Times bestseller Burnout offers up the tools and tips to help get you there.

We all want to achieve wellness. But wellness is not a state of mind or a state of being--it's a state of action. It's the freedom to oscillate through all the cycles of being human: from effort to rest, sleeping to waking, autonomy to connection. Burnout, on the other hand, happens when we get stuck.

The Burnout Workbook will help you notice when you get stuck and show you how to get unstuck - inside you'll find:
* engaging questions
* exercises to practise skills
* visual guides
* stories
* quotes
and more!

Feel better, minimize stress, manage your emotions, and live a more joyful life. Whether or not you've read Burnout, this workbook will help you learn what true wellness can look like in your life.
