Présentation de l'éditeur

Burnout is reaching epidemic proportions throughout the adult population. Yet, although universally thought of as the curse of the fast-paces, frenetic, stressful lifestyle, it can actually be a life-saver. This book aims to reveal how this debilitating condition can be the key to reclaiming our personal joy. In this book, the author explains that burnout happens when the love or meaning for what we are doing is lost, but the attachment to it drives us to stay in our rut. Although defined by its joylessness, experiencing burnout is actually a positive step - alerting us to the fact that we are not being true to ourselves and providing us with the impetus to redirect out lives for joy. Uncovering the process of burnout, the author shows us how we can use the experience to turn our lives around. For those who are at burnout, or in danger of becoming so, this practical guide aims to provide a companion to help you rise from the ashes of your former self.
