Burnout In The Forest
Welcome to the Forest, where we gather to explore and support each other through our mental health journeys. Today, let's talk about burnout - that feeling of exhaustion and overwhelm that can sneak up on us when we least expect it. Burnout can make it difficult to focus, drain our motivation, and leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others. But fear not, together we can learn strategies to prevent burnout and reclaim our energy and joy. Join us in the Forest as we navigate this challenge with care and compassion.
