How to Slow Down Before Exhaustion Sets In
Exhaustion can significantly affect your mind and body causing you to suffer from burnout, anxiety, and even depression. If you don't make changes,?exhaustion can lead to even more severe health problems.
In order to avoid exhaustion it's important to get into a habit of recognising its warning signs so you can stop it before it begins. Even some relatively simple life changes may make it more likely for you to avoid exhaustion all together.?
Here are some tips you can try to keep exhaustion at bay:
1.?????Analyse Your Workload.?It's quite easy to take on too much without realising that there are only so many hours in the day. If you continue to run on overdrive without giving yourself a break, you're sure to eventually reach burnout. You have two choices when it comes to altering your workload:
2.?????Avoid Getting Over Tired.?When you're in-tune with your body, you can sense when you're reaching a point of tiredness. As soon as you start to feel this way it's time to stop and make a change. You can book a mini vacation, go on a day trip, or you can spend time at home. The important thing to remember is that you need to leave your sources of stress behind. If this means no access to your mobile or computer, then so be it!
3.?????Change Is Good.?If you keep reaching a point where you think you're exhasutied, then it's time to make a major life change.?
4.?????Take Breaks.?There is a reason why it's mandatory to offer breaks to employees.?You need breaks to refresh, rejuvenate, and renew your mind.?Go for a 10-minute walk, play a Sudoku puzzle, or just get away from your source of tension for a few minutes.
5.?????Ask For Help.?Sometimes we feel so alone with our problems that we forget to ask for help, yet that just might be the antidote to our stress! Talk to your partner, friend, or an emotional health coach to plan a forward that's right for your health and wellbeing.
6.?????Learn To Say No.?There is a difference between someone who is open and accommodating and someone who says?yes?to everything. If you tell everyone?yes,?it's likely that someone will take advantage of you at some point or another. Learn that sometimes saying?no?is in your best interest. You don't need to give yourself extra stress!
