  Speaker 1: Hi, it's Amy with Intuitive Coaching with Amy Radio, and
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: this is your sacred space for spirituality, intuition, manifestation, and
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: metaphysical wisdom. All right, let's talk about burnout. Burnout is
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: this deep exhaustion and it's not just in your physical body.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: It's in your mind, it's in your spirit, and it
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: shows up when you've been overgiving or giving your energy
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: away and excess for a long period of time. So
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: burnout's not just being tired. It's your body, mind, and
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: spirit's way of signaling that the choices that you are
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: making aren't sustainable. But here's the good news. You can
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: think of burnout as a gift. It's telling you that
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: something needs to shift so that you can make a
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: different moraliging choice, a choice and aligns with what you
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: really want and who you want to be. The tricky
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: thing with burnout is that it's triggered by behaviors that
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: once you get on that train, your mind tells you
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: that you have to stay on that train. So it
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: can be a little bit difficult to spot what's creating
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: the burnout. But if you're willing to be centered, if
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: you're willing to trust your intuition, you can get some
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: cues from within as to what might be going on
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: that's triggering the burnout. So I'm going to guide you
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: through a one and done practice to explore and heal
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: burnout spiritually. This is not a substitute for medical or
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: psychological care. This is just a spiritual practice that you
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: can play with, make your own so you can step
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: into your energy again and increase your personal power. All right,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: So spiritual alignment. My spare guys are jumping in. They're saying,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: if you have been experiencing burnout, you might not even
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: be aware of it. You might have this pattern of
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: work really hard collapse, work really hard collapse and don't
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: even know that that's the routine. Or you might be
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: in a cycle with your work where when you're done
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: with a project, you burn out. I saw this when
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I was younger and I was doing a lot of theater.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: I would have this like burnout period after a play
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: or performance. And recently I started to see a bit
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: of burnout and how it shows up. So I thought,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: why not let's do Let's do a show, just thinking
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: somebody else is going through burnout and they want to
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: start from a spiritual place, or maybe you're already looking
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: at it in therapy and you want a little spiritual
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: support around it. So the first step is reconnecting to source,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: reconnecting to spirit, reconnecting to God. So you're gonna want
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: to sit comfortably, place your hand over your heart if
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: that feels right to you, and say out loud, I
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: now release all energy. I've given a way through overffor
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: over efforting and being in survival mode. And you can
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: make up your own words. I call all my energy
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: back and reconnect to the divine flowing within me. So essentially,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: we're going to release over efforting. We're going to release
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: being in survival mode. Maybe yours is stress, maybe yours
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: is overfunctioning, whatever it is, but you're going to acknowledge it.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: You're going to start the releasing process, because it's a start.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: I think once we and claim it, then not only
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: are we allowing spirit to support us, but we can
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: actually start to do some work to choose a new approach.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: And then, if you feel inspired, visualize yourself covered in
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: a pure radiant light. You may want to see it
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: coming through the top of your head, through your crown chakra,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: see it filling every cell in your body. Restoring you
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: and feel your energy coming back. May want to visualize
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: your energy coming back from sources outside of you. You
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: know at this step it might be beneficially even pray
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: spirit help me to reverse the energy of burnout, change
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: my mind so that burnout is no longer a thing
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: that happens to me. You're not meant to live off
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: of low power alone, and for now is very much
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: connected to a perspective of I've got to do it all.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: You are powered by the divine and so the more
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: that you can remember that, the less you're going to
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: be taking away from your humanly body. And the next
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: let's explore what burnout is teaching you. There's always a
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: reason and there's always a lesson. So grab your journal
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: or you can do this in your mind and consider
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: these questions. What truth have I been avoiding because I
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: felt I had to keep going? What truth have I
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: been avoiding because I felt I had to keep going?
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Where have I been creating from a place of fear
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: instead of a place of trust and faith? What belief
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: would I need to have so I could rest move
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: through my day with ease, experience more joy in a
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: natural and accessible way. So what belief would you have
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: to have so that you were enjoy more of the time,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: And then close your eyes and receive, be willing to
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: receive one clear phrase or image from your higher self
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: and let that be your energetic key. So when I
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: did this, I didn't write it down. I just did them.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: I did it in my mind and I let something pop.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: You know, when I say pop, like an insight appear
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: in my third I some of these. That was a
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: phrase that appeared in my mind. Clear cognizance, clairvoyance. So
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: use your natural psychic abilities to really tune into yourself
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: and get that energetic key and write that down. And
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: then you may even want to do some work around that.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: You know, maybe maybe it's that you're struggling to believe
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: that everything can be okay for you and that things
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: are going to work out for you, So then you
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: might want to ask yourself why and journal on that
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: and then maybe turn it into an affirmation trust yourself.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: But essentially, you're going to give yourself the key that
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: has been causing you to end up in burnout, and
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: then let's do a reset. So you bring you're gonna
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: bring yourself present it, and you're going to really consider
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: your schedule, your commitments, your activities, your to do list,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: and explore what feels energizing, and explore what feels heavy,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: and explore what you're doing out of obligation and what
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: you're doing because you feel like there's not another way.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: And then ask yourself, how do all of those feel.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Do they feel light, do they feel fun, do they
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: feel joyful? Or do they feel like you're pushing, like
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: it's hard, like you've got to make it work. And
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: at the same time, I would encourage you to explore
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: any stories that you might be telling yourself about how
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: others might be perceiving you. I think that's also a
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: source of burnout. When you're really concerned about what other
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: people might think or their judgments, or if they'll love
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: you or accept you as you are, or maybe you
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: think they're talking behind your back, or you're concerned that
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: people are going to think negatively of you or rate
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: you poorly. Look at those two because that all can
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: trigger burn out. A fear of judgment from others definitely
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: can cause you to overwork and overfunction. And then as
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: you look at your schedule commitments, really consider what you
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: can let go of or consider where can you add
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: more play, more rest or maybe here's another option. Maybe
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: you need to take a different approach. You know, maybe
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: you're looking at something from the perspective that, oh my god,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: if I don't get this right, my world's going to
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: fall apart, or perfectionism. I have to be perfect not perfect.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Then somebody's going to think this or this is going
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: to be this or this must mean this, And so
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: really ask yourself where you can change your mindset and
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: the way you think of yourself all of that, and
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: then ask yourself, you know, as you're exploring that, do
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: I need to keep this around? Do I need to
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: continue to do this thing? So you may realize, like, hey,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: my whole approach to this is backwards, and now that
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: I think about it, I really don't even need to
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: do this. Or it could be that you do need
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: to do it and you're still thinking a backwards approach.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Choose a more supportive approach. Choose to speak kindly to yourself.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Choose to believe that you are good just as you are.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Choose to believe that there's absolutely nothing wrong with you,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: and then really commit. You may want to say a
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: prayer and ask your angels God's spirit to support you
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: in seeing your energy as sacred and seeing that you
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: have the right and responsibility to restore and be renewed
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: and not depleted. And then take some time to sit
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: in stillness, really feel into your entire energy field and
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: see where burnout lives and ask what it needs from
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: you so it can go away. Ask your higher self
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: what you need so burnout is no longer a thing.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: And more than anything, just be really kind to yourself,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: really really kind to yourself, because the more that you're
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: able to manage burnout, the more energetic consistency you're gonna
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: have in your life. Oh so you're gonna just feel better,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: You're gonna feel more joy, You're gonna feel more happiness,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: You're gonna you're gonna really start to believe that spirits
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: on your side and supporting you, and that no, you
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: don't have to work yourself blind to create a result.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: And then after all of this, I want you to
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: start committing to one teeny tiny practice that you're going
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: to do that nourishes you. You know, maybe it's you
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: make yourself a tea in the afternoon, or you take
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: a walk, or you stretch, or maybe it's something different
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: every day, and I would keep it light, like, yes,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: there are lots of things that you can do to
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: take care of yourself, but pick something that's really easy
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and nurturing and loving and supportive, not something where you're like,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: gotta do this like this right, Like I wouldn't pick
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: a really strenuous exercise routine for this step. You can
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: still have a really strenuous exercise routine, but this is
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: all just meant to be gentle, to remind yourself you're good,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: you're wonderful exactly as you are, all right. So that's
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: my quasi spiritual approach to burnout. It's really just deciding
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: to make a different choice right and knowing why you
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: do it, and then asking spirit to help you with
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: this reset and more so than choosing some new activity,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: choosing a new way of being, because you don't have
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: to do burnout. You don't have to. But I would
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: definitely spend some time with it because the questions were
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: I thought the most helpful, and it helped me see
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: burnout from a completely different perspective. And then also I
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: will I will say again, start looking at the energies
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: around you. Is there an energy that feels like pressure,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Is there an energy, Is there a person you think
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: that's going to judge you? Is there a circumstance where
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: you don't feel love and support? Make a different choice,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: because once you get clear about what's going on with burnout,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: you will have more clarity, more ease, and more command
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: over how you use your energy. So I pray that's helpful.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about the one year Intuitive Coaching Package. You
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: know inevitably I will come across clients struggling with burnout
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: because it happens. It happens to high achieving people. It
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: also happens to people who still have some areas to
• 15:24

• 16:05
  Speaker 1: learn more about the one year Intuitive Coaching Package at
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: intuitive coachingwithany dot com you can start today. Listen, Burnout's
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: not a sign that you're doing it wrong at all.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: It's a sign that you care. But let's check what
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: you're karen about. And if you see it as a signal,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: you can start to make some different choices. You can
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: start to see that. Hey, let me make some choices
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: that are sustainable. Because when you explore burnout, when you
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: heal it and then you act from a new energy,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: you open yourself up to greater possibilities. I know that
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: sounds counterintuitive because you're working so hard that should be
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: the catalyst for new opportunities. But no spirit likes us
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: to be far more at ease than we even understand.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: So take one tiny step, just one tiny little step,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: create some boundaries, get more rest, Make a few different
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: make a few different choices. It's usually not just one choice,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: that's usually quite a few, actually, So make quite a
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: few different choices. And remember your energy is sacred and
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: treat it that way, and burnout does not have to
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: be a reality. And get every bit of support you
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: need to manage that. If this show is helpful, I'm
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: still processing burnout. It's not one I've even dealt with
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: or looked at super closely in my adult life. Only
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: now am I starting to be with it. I think
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: a little bit of it is I'm back in Los Angeles,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: and Los Angeles I'm a clear sension, I'm a highly
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: sensive person. Los Angeles has this like do do do energy,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: and so it's very easy for me to pick it up.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: And so I'm starting to I'm having to look at it.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: I'm having to look at and see what burnout. What
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I didn't learn when I was younger, Because when I
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: was younger, if I burn out enough, I would just
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: kind of quit whatever I was up to and do
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: something else that felt more fun. And I think that's
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: okay too. I mean, I do think burnout can be
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: assigned to try something else. But if you're at a
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: stage in your life where, hey, I like my work,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: I just have a tendency to choose burnout without knowing it,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: then yeah, it's time to jump in and really explore.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: And I don't even love a lot of the content
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: about burnout out there. I usually avoid it. So you know,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: pray and ask spirit to guide you to the right
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: sources and wisdom, and you don't have to make the choice.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: That's what my spirit guides keep saying, is just keep
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: telling people burnout can feel like the only choice. And
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: this show is designed to help you consider a world
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: where you don't have to end up in burnout and
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: that just starts with making different decisions. Thank you so
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: much for listening to this show. I look forward to
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: connecting with you on the next take Care of Yourself Goodbye.
