Do you ever hit points where you can’t understand why you’re reacting the way that you are, why you’re experiencing a certain body sensation (i.e. heart racing or sweaty palms), or why something bothers you the way that it does?

Does it ever feel like you’re moving through life in a “waking sleep”, where you are living (awake) but without much intentional thought or introspection (or perhaps being disconnected from yourself or your experiences)?

You’re noticing that you have hit a point of burnout in the workplace and are wondering what to do next. Here are 4 steps that you might want to take, depending on what your situation is, if you are finding yourself in a place of feeling burned out in life
