Burnout Basics: Reset, Renew, Do
I believe the burnout recovery cycle is of the most important concepts of the course. Thinking about my patterns was a key to understanding why I was still burnt out even though I was resting a lot. Does that happen for you? In this lesson we start to explore these patterns and think about how we want to change them.
Lesson Two Topics:
- What are the stages in the cycle of burnout recovery? 
- Reset - We need to reset when our nervous systems are dysregulated or we want to prevent dysregulation. During reset, we do things that reduce harmful stimulation and increase helpful stimulation. 
- Renew - After the reset we need to recharge, helps us recoup energy between periods of doing. 
- Do - When we are ready to return to more demanding and productivity oriented tasks 
- Stimulation Baseline and Allostatic Load 
- Charting and Identifying Patterns 
- Supporting Each Other 
- How do you want to change your patterns? 
Share/Reflect
- Do these stages fit your experience? 
- what stage do you think you are in right now? 
- Is there a stage you already have an action plan for? Is there one you don’t?
