Burnout and chronic stress — recover your energy and switch off again
Burnout isn’t just “too much to do” — it’s a nervous system stuck in overdrive (or shutdown). We stabilise your stress response, rebuild recovery habits that actually stick, and address the patterns that keep you over-functioning so you can feel steady, clear, and present again.
Does this sound like you?
- You can’t switch off after work
- Sleep is light, broken, or unrefreshing
- Irritability, numbness, or tearfulness
- You’re functioning, but everything feels heavier
Why it happens
Chronic threat load (deadlines, pressure, caretaking), Boundary depletion + perfectionism loops, and Lack of true recovery (rest that doesn’t restore).
