Those in the health field such as nurses, therapists and counselors are at high risk of burnout, as much as 40%, sometimes up to 80% in certain settings!
Often, our burnout is caused by secondary trauma and chronic overwhelm with little rest. Most of the time our burnout is caused by the sabotage of our mind, thoughts and beliefs.
When we experience burnout, we carry great heaviness that effects our physical health such as headaches, neck and shoulder pain, and adrenal fatigue and weight gain/loss. Our mind is toxic with negativity, judgment, anger, and stress leading to our relationships being strained, our work feeling more stressful than rewarding and effects how we show up for our clients.
That’s what I was experiencing. I had headaches as often as 5 days a week and my kid and family barely saw me smile or have fun. Inside I felt ashamed and guilty for not being the mom I wanted to be and my clients weren’t getting the best of me either.
My focus was on helping them with “outcomes”, so I could feel more rewarded in my work when really what they needed most was me to just hold calm and loving space for them to heal themselves, and for my energy of wellness to be the beacon of guidance.
When I found Positive Intelligence mental fitness, I was hoping to have a program I could bring to my clients and would help me with integrating mindfulness in my own life.
What happened was TRANSFORMATION!
I stopped yelling at my son when he wasn’t listening. I was a counselor that helped my clients see their strengths even when they relapsed. Even the house chores I hated doing became more rewarding and manageable.
Over time my negativity and stress about bills and the future stopped showing up in my thoughts. My headaches are down to once a month and my son shares his feelings with me more and gives me more opportunities to hold space for him in his journey of growing and evolving, a true honor for the parent of a pre-teen!
