Yoga Nidra for Burnout Navigate Your Nervous System Cheat Sheet 👉 📄 https://melissawest.com/navigate/ Welcome to the second month of our Navigate Your Nervous System Series. This is the fifth class in the series. Burnout occurs when our body gets stuck in the dorsal shutdown freeze response of the nervous system, triggered by prolonged periods of stress and activation. It arises when we push past our limits, exhausting our physical, mental, emotional, and energetic bodies beyond their capacity to rest and restore. Burnout is more than just physical fatigue—it's a deep soul exhaustion, a sign that the nervous system is in need of regulation. This isn’t your fault. We live in a world that constantly pressures us to be productive, with financial and personal responsibilities pulling us in different directions. It's no wonder we don’t always take the time to recover fully, which only deepens the cycle of depletion. We often override our natural rhythms, pushing through stress and fatigue without proper recovery. But there is hope. By tuning into the body’s natural rhythms of repair and restoration, we can heal from burnout. This yoga nidra practice will not only help you recover from burnout but also prevent future episodes. Yoga nidra goes beyond simple rest—it restores your nervous system, reconnecting you with your body’s innate wisdom. The more we embrace slowness and moments of stillness in our lives, the more we heal and build resilience.
