Burnout 101

Thank you so much for attending our presentation on burnout at the Oklahoma Craft Beer Summit! Thank you to the Craft Brewers Association of Oklahoma for having us.

• Harvard Business Review

  • When Passion Leads to Burnout

  • Burnout Is About Your Workplace, Not Your People

• New York Times

  • Your Body Knows You’re Burned Out

• Breathing exercises referenced:

  • “I am” breathing exercise. As you inhale and exhale use the mantra “I am” and attach it to your inhales and exhales for as many breaths as you’d like.

    • Inhale - think to yourself “I”

    • Exhale - think to yourself “am”

    • This is excellent for resetting and grounding oneself, and doesn’t encourage you to have to feel any certain way, you can just be present!

  • Timed breathing exercise. Counting your inhales and exhales, and exhaling for a few counts longer than your inhales.

    • Inhale - slowly count to 4

    • Exhale - slowly count to 6

    • Repeat for as long as is helpful to calm yourself
