Awareness plays a vital role and the first step is to be aware of your mental, physical, emotional and spiritual state. 1) Exhaustion 2) Turning cynical 3) Unable to add value 4) Creativity does not flow 5) Imposter syndrome 6) Unable to focus 7) Back ache, head ache, heavy chest, disturbed stomach, flu like symptoms, blurred vision. 8) Confusion 9) getting into pseudo flow state like scrolling social media, watching OTT without really enjoying. list goes on. Your body is only communicating with you about how much overwhelming it is getting. Listen to it by feeling it, compassionately sit with it just like you sit with a worried child. Use somatic body scan, soften and flow mediations This also means step back and accept it.

It can take a long time to realise you are in burn out... The realisation seems to come later on in the game. There are different types of burnout; physical, emotional, spiritual and mental. This can start with: -pessimism -headaches -overwhelm -appetite change The signs that one needs to look out for is based on that individual and it can be prevented before you physically cannot leave your house or get out of bed. It's great to prevent such things arising but it can't always be helped. You can: -have boundaries -schedule in breaks -take time off -work towards dates

Burnout often stems from overextending oneself and neglecting personal boundaries. Take stock of your workload, commitments, and obligations, and establish clear boundaries to protect your time, energy, and well-being. Learn to say no to tasks or requests that don't align with your priorities or values, and delegate responsibilities when possible.

When recovering from burnout, prioritizing self-care becomes absolutely essential for your well-being as a life coach. This means taking deliberate steps to care for yourself physically, mentally and emotionally. Physically, it's about getting proper nutrition, engaging in regular exercise, and prioritizing sufficient sleep. Mental and emotional self-care are equally crucial. Practice mindfulness techniques, such as meditation or deep breathing exercises to help reduce stress and promote emotional balance. Engage in hobbies or activities that bring you joy and relaxation as an outlet for rejuvenation. Self-care isn't selfish. Make it a non-negotiable part of your routine for long-term sustainability and effectiveness as a life coach.

The foundation of bouncing back from burnout lies in prioritizing self-care. Take time to recharge and replenish your energy reserves through activities that nourish your mind, body, and soul. Whether it's practicing mindfulness, engaging in hobbies, or simply taking regular breaks, carving out time for self-care is essential for restoring balance and resilience.

Everybody defines self-care differently. Obesseively doing the same thing for an extended amount of time can lead to burnout. Different resilience windows have different burnout onset times. Other parts of the central nervous system can be activated by altering our tasks, activities, and surroundings. allowing the utilized components to heal. These are a few that are not negotiable: 1) Get enough sleep; 2) Take breaks; 3) Consume a diet rich in nutrients; 4) Move in any way 5) Introspection: Are you happy with the work you are doing? Recover(Awareness-Acceptance)-Re-engage with joy(Do the best and leave the rest )- Resilience is the outcome. Only when you take care of yourself you are able to take care of others :-)

During burnout times, we are unable to think from multiple angles. Seeking support means expressing what you are feeling to right set of people. This can help you observe their POV and one of the many ways to handle the situation that you are in. Expression(Talking, laughing, crying) is also a form of realize. Remember this- energy can neither be created or destroyed. it can only be transformed. This is what happens when you express.

Burnout may signal that it's time to reassess and refine your approach and goals to life coaching. Reflect on your coaching methods, client interactions, and work-life balance, and identify areas where adjustments may be necessary. Embrace flexibility and experimentation as you explore new techniques, boundaries, or niches that better align with your strengths and values.

A man had 4 sons, In his late 40's when his first son got married he actively participated, in late 60's when his last son got married his was unable to participate actively. Same person by different time, We all have limitations this varies from person to person and time to time. It is okay, that the burnout happened, this gave a signal that you need to step back and reflect on your task list, approach, personality and commitment. Delegate tasks that some one else can do, Learn to set boundaries and make sure you d not cross them first, Manage your dysfunctional achiever that wants to do all, Unlearn being perfect and outcome driven etc.

Monotony is one of the biggest enemy for our mind, where as our body loves routine. Burnout happens at both the levels, physically we can do many things like mentioned above however mentally, it the novelty factor that keeps the mind motivated and curious. Learning new tech, skills, participating in seminar etc is like taking your mind on a vacation Lastly learn to be present, every moment is new to us and different.

Reconnect with your purpose and mission to rekindle the passion for your life coaching career. Reflect on why you chose this path and the impact you aspire to make in the lives of your clients. Revisiting your core values and goals can reignite your enthusiasm and motivation, inspiring you to overcome challenges and persevere through difficult times.
