Overcoming Wellness Burnout
Overcoming Wellness Burnout
Over the last several years working in the realm of holistic health I've come to see a phenomenon I like to call "Wellness Burnout."
It can feel SO empowering when we realize we have the power to use nutrition and lifestyle shifts to improve how we feel. We might start out by experimenting with diet, then start taking new supplements, then incorporating dry brushing, taking saunas, meditating, doing yoga, oil pulling, tongue scraping, trampolining, acupuncture, breathwork, fasting, cleansing, blue light blocking, grounding, seed cycling, and ALL the things!
I speak with clients at this place of burnout who say, "Christina, I'm literally doing everything right and I'm STILL not feeling better. What gives?"
At the end of the day, we all just want to feel BETTER. And most of us are willing to do whatever it takes! If you get to the place where your wellness routines have begun to feel like a chore, you're feeling stressed and overwhelmed, and you're trying to get through tasks so you can mentally check off a box that you "did it" but are feeling stressed the whole time, you might experiencing some Wellness Burnout.
While we can certainly use many of these amazing health-supportive practices, we don't have to do ALL of the things ALL the time.
In fact, we aren't meant to. Taking the time to tune into the practices that feel good and supportive to you specifically at this moment in time, and working to bring more depth and presence to those (rather than adding on more interventions) allows us to reap the benefits more fully and take some pressure off of ourselves to do it all.
If you are experiencing some Wellness Burnout, what are you noticing? Are there 1-3 practices that are the most beneficial to you right now? Is there any room to release others? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
