Surveys show that up to three-quarters of people around the world are struggling from burnout. When you’re burned out, you feel it with every fiber of your being. Burnout is a devastating state of exhaustion, perceived incompetence, and detachment from others and your work, and strikes professionals and family caregivers alike. The stress of living in today’s high-pressure world, coupled with the fallout from the recent Covid pandemic, means that many of us are at the end of our rope. Fortunately, self-compassion can help you both prevent and recover from burnout. Self-compassion involves treating yourself with warmth, encouragement, and support when you’re stressed and overworked. A large body of research shows that self-compassion is one of the most powerful sources of strength, coping, and resilience we have available to cope with burnout. Dr. Kristin Neff, PhD
