Things I Wish I’d Known with Rachael Welford
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
On this episode Rachael dives into the topic of burnout and how it affects our mental and physical health with Anna Schaffner, an academic, author, and coach specialising in the fascinating subject of exhaustion. While new technologies have made our lives more comfortable in many ways, they have also generated new stressors. Email is a significant stressor for many of us, taking away from our actual jobs and creating psychosocial stressors that can lead to a lack of hope for the future. We discuss the various factors that can contribute to burnout and emphasise the importance of rest and self-care, as well as developing kinder self-narratives. Rachael shares her personal experience with burnout and offers advice on how to take small steps towards positive change, using the metaphor of a garden to illustrate the effort needed to improve our mental health. So, sit back, relax, and join us for an informative and inspiring conversation on preventing and overcoming burnout.
