Stress and Burnout
Constantly drained and overwhelmed? Chronic stress and burnout can push your body into survival mode, deplete your energy reserves and make even simple tasks feel exhausting. Common symptoms include difficulty waking up in the morning, feeling emotionally numb, mid-afternoon crashes, sleep disturbances, irritability, and a sense of mental and physical exhaustion that doesn’t improve with rest.
If you feel like you’ve tried everything and nothing’s worked, chances are you haven’t addressed the right root cause yet. Think of it like a car—you wouldn’t fix a dead battery by topping up the fuel. The same logic applies to your body: if something’s not working, there’s a physiological reason why.
Identifying and addressing those underlying factors is the crucial first step. And that’s exactly what I help my patients do—through 1:1 sessions, functional testing and my Energy Reset Program—so they can stop guessing and start truly recovering their energy. Join us!
Read on to learn how burnout causes fatigue, and what you can do about it.
What’s Going On in the Body?
Short-term stress is normal, its the prolonged stress and continued increase in hormones like cortisol and adrenaline that interferes with energy production. This flood of stress hormones causes inflammation in the brain, weakens vagal tone, (the body's ability to calm itself down, among other benefits), and reduces the production of "feel-good" chemicals like serotonin and dopamine, leading to mood swings and more fatigue. Over time, the HPA axis becomes dysregulated, leading to insufficient hormone production, low energy, difficulty waking up, and trouble managing stress.
What You Can Do About It:
Testing: Salivary cortisol or DUTCH test for women or men to assess cortisol patterns and adrenal function.
Prioritize stress management: Try aromatherapy for vagal tone, mindfulness, meditation, deep breathing, and gentle movement like yoga or walking.
Restore the HPA axis: work with a knowledgeable practitioner to nourish your adrenals with nutraceuticals and balance your nervous system response.
Retrain Your Brain: Join either the Vagus Nerve Revival Program or the Neural “rewiring” Program to overcome chronic health issues of all kinds
Create Boundaries: Protect your energy by setting clear work and personal life boundaries to prevent emotional exhaustion.
