Burnout

If you become burnout, you may find it impossible to maintain a good professional performance - losing your motivation and sense of enjoyment, and finding even long work hours are a form of presenteeism where little is actually achieved. 

As well as the general sense of exhaustion and lack of productivity, there is an increased incidence of heart disease, cognitive impairment and memory problems, elevated stress hormone levels and quite often, depression.

Unless you make changes to your lifestyle, the feelings and physical effects of burnout are unlikely to dissipate, and can even lead to an urgent health crisis or mental breakdown.

When we meditate, we rest three to five times deeper than the deepest part of sleep. It enables us to repair so deeply that we can recover from our chronic, deeply-felt stress and begin functioning normally again.

Our hormonal levels balance, our cardiovascular health improves, our cognitive functioning becomes restored, and any depressive symptoms tend to lift. As this happens, our energy levels rise, and our ability to engage with people and work is vastly improved.

Rather than simply facilitating a return to the same unsustainable habits, Beeja meditation for burnout improves our sense of perspective and self-worth, helping us to make lasting positive change.

As you become clearer and more capable, you will still be able to be a high achiever, but you will likely do so within the context of a calmer, fuller, more balanced life.
