However\, when burnout strikes\, it’s hard to do much of anything. We feel drained\, empty\, irritable\, or useless. We’re also likely to blame ourselves for feeling this way. Have you been there\, perhaps during the pandemic\, or do you know someone who has been burned out? That’s highly likely because studies show that 25-75% of workers around the world experience burnout symptoms. \n\n\n\nBurnout happens when our work-life balance gets out of whack\, usually through no fault of our own. We’re just doing the best we can. Common causes of burnout include excessive workload\, lack of support\, unfairness at the workplace\, and moral distress. People who care deeply about their work are also more likely to get burned out\, as are those who base their self-worth on their work\, have a tendency to sacrifice themselves\, or criticize themselves when things go wrong. \n\n\n\nFortunately\, self-compassion is an antidote to burnout\, and there are many research studies that support this claim. We also have an empirically-supported training for healthcare workers derived from the Mindful Self-compassion (MSC) programme—Self-Compassion for Healthcare Communities. Recently\, Kristin Neff and Chris Germer wrote a new book\, to be published in September 2024\, titled The Mindful Self-Compassion Toolkit for Burnout. This book\, written in an easy style for exhausted readers\, adapts MSC concepts and practices specifically for burnout. \n\n\n\nThis experiential workshop consists of talks\, meditation\, exercises and discussion. It is designed for people with some familiarity with self-compassion concepts. \n\n\n\n\nI am delighted to be returning to Brighton\, UK to share with you the work Kristin Neff and I have been doing on burnout\,Since COVID\, burnout in healthcare and other occupations has become a major issue that threatens the wellbeing of staff who work in these ever-stretched systems as well as the ability of the systems themselves to function effectively. \n\n\n\nRecent research shows that burnout among doctors is even increasing. Fortunately\, the evidence is also clear that self-compassion is an antidote to burnout. Our new book on the self-compassion for burnout explores how individuals and systems facing burnout can resource themselves in these challenging times. \nChris Germer\n\n\n\nChris Germer\, PhD is a clinical psychologist and lecturer on psychiatry (part-time) at Harvard Medical School.

They co-authored two books on MSC\, The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook and Teaching the Mindful Self-Compassion Programme. \n\n\n\nDr. Germer spends most of his time lecturing and leading workshops around the world on mindfulness and self-compassion.
