Welcome to Bettermental! To kick off their season on stress management, Mike and Leanna have introduced a three-part mini-series on stress, exhaustion, and burnout. 

Part 2 focuses on the next stage of stress: exhaustion. According to Mayo Clinic, exhaustion or fatigue is “a nearly constant state of weariness that develops over time and reduces your energy, motivation, and concentration.”

In this episode, Mike and Leanna talk about how they identify and experience exhaustion symptoms with multiple mental health conditions. They share some of their best strategies for exhaustion management, like scheduling low-brain work, short and long breaks, and tips for sleep and exercise.

So stress, just to review, is your body's response to stimuli in the environment.
..exhaustion is what happens when that snowball [effect of stress] gets so big that I just can't manage it in my day-to-day life
So how do you get yourself out of exhaustion?
You need a break. So what does that look like?...Step one. It can look like taking a look at your schedule today...Just today
Once you are in a better place mentally, it's important to think about systems and prepare systems that you can set up in your business…
.You have to address the current symptoms and get out of that exhaustion cycle before you start management.
