The Importance of Taking a Break

"I find sometimes it's really hard to help clients realize how important it is to stop and take a break," she says. "When we're really burned out, we can't really calibrate that doing this at 60% is actually more than enough" If you override that limit, you are setting your survival brain into a place where it is going to feel powerless because it has given you information and you're not listening to it." She adds: "You might think it makes sense to keep working right now but you've actually just traumatized yourself in doing that"
