Protecting Your Energy

Anxiety, depression, stress, and burnout are on the increase throughout the world. 

 

In the UK alone, it is estimated that over 8 million people experience an anxiety disorder at any one time. Mind UK reports that every single week 6 in 100 people are diagnosed with a generalised anxiety disorder in England.

 

And, it is important to state that these figures probably don’t tell the whole picture and the real figures are likely to be much higher as many people still do not let others know that they are struggling.

 

Luckily, there are lots of resources out there for people that are struggling. 

 

In Episode 18 of An Espresso Shot Of Confidence, I speak with the awesome Shannon Humphrey, a First Aid For Mental Health Instructor and of Pathways For Positivity. Shannon supports people manage anxiety and get through tough times. She also runs a variety of workshops and training sessions with organisations that promote employee wellbeing. 

 

During our chat we discuss:

• ways to protect your energy
• how to avoid getting burnt out
• the importance of letting people know when you are struggling
• how mental health first aid can support your employees/students.
• managing stress
• the dangers of comparing yourself to other people
• challenging the stories the mind monkeys tell you

 

This episode is full of useful advice and tips for anyone that is struggling right now or feels that they are on the fast track to burnout.
