Ep 103: Burnout: Why It Happens & What to Do About It
Description
Feeling drained or uninspired in your teaching? You’re not alone. In this episode, we explore why burnout happens for yoga teachers, how nervous system dysregulation contributes to it, and what you can do to reconnect to your practice, your students, and your purpose. Learn how to recognize the signs of burnout, set boundaries without guilt, and restore your energy through nervous system care. Whether you’re feeling depleted or just need a gentle reminder to slow down, this episode will help you return to teaching from a place of authenticity and alignment.
You'll realize how chronic sympathetic activation can quietly lead to feeling burnout, why rest is not a luxury but a biological need, and how small, consistent nervous system care practices can help you regulate, reset, and reconnect with yourself, and why you started teaching in the first place.
Get your journals because I'll also weave in a few reflection questions throughout the episode to help you reconnect to yourself.
