Taking Care of Each Other - Preventing Burnout at 7 Cups
Hi everyone! This is a forum post linked to the path 'Preventing Burnout at 7 Cups'
What have you done today/recently to prevent burnout in a fellow community user?
This can look like:
• Encouraging self-care
• Reminding someone of the importance of boundaries
• Covering for someone so they can take a self-care break
@Hope
I asked a friend how they were doing
@Hope
There will be a time as my schedule permits, that I am happy to cover for someone else.
Helping someone with setting boundaries.
I reminded someone that self care is not selfish and is necessary for their well being and their ability to be there for others
@Hope I taught someone that it is okay to say no to more work when they are not feeling good and/or can't handle more tasks.
@AskTara Setting boundaries is key!
@Hope I am honest with those around me on how I struggle with addiction to work, and how I overcome it and therefore prevent burnout. I think honesty invites relation, and planting seeds of healing and health can sprout in others.
@Hope
I have told another listener to reach out on the member account when they were feeling burnt out!
@Hope I've broke down the things I have to do into a list, and I started doing it little by little instead all at once, when I felt I'm getting a burnout, I took a break and continued later. Loving this thread, thank you!
I talked with a member about self-care and asked them what they found to be helpful and what actually helps them feel better
I have provided support to other listeners by trying to answer their questions and helping them to find the answer to their questions. It is so important that I follow up and follow through.
