Subject: The battle of burnout: Restore balance and feel better today

What is burnout, exactly? It’s a state of stress so acute and prolonged that sufferers lose motivation, feel emotionally drained, and stop being able to function properly in life and at work. When we prioritize our mental health by setting boundaries and making time for self-care, we can reduce our stress levels, boost our well-being, and head off burnout long-term. Here are a few Calm Health resources to get you on the right path.

In Moments That Matter, an eight-part series led by stress and burnout coach Chibs Okereke, you’ll learn actionable strategies for handling tough moments at work, from delivering difficult feedback to weathering team changes.
A six-minute guided meditation, Letting Go of the Day helps you seamlessly shift from work mode to personal time so you can leave stress at the office and come back refreshed.
In Mindful Walking, you’ll transform your typical walking break into a reset for your mind.
