Burnout may be as a result of excessive stress but they do not mean the same thing. Burnout is a cycle of negative emotions, paralysis and withdrawal. It is the body’s response to putting too much effort into something without taking in what you require to restore yourself. It is mental, emotional and physical exhaustion that leads to diminished interest in performing tasks.

Physical symptoms of burnout include having low energy, headaches, muscle tension, digestive disorders, frequent colds and changes in one’s sleep patterns. Its mental symptoms include feeling sad, inadequate, frustrated, unappreciated and irritable. These symptoms can result in withdrawal, accidents, increased sick days and crying. One may increase their consumption of food or alcohol to soothe themselves.

Stress on the other hand, involves too many pressures that demand too much from you either physically or psychologically. Stressed people though can still see a light at the end of the tunnel, they just often can't figure a way to get to it.

Stress is just a day-to-day experience but burnout is a more serious consequence of the build-up of too much stress which causes the individual person to shut down.

If stress persists on a full scale for a long period of time, there are increased risks of burnout. Although stress is an essential pre-requisite for burnout, burnout is not necessarily the result of too much stress. For burnouts to occur there must be an additional psychological factor.

People who are stressed can often still function and do all that the tasks or jobs required of them. This is due to the fact that different people can bear different levels of stress for different lengths of time. This is quite a contrast to people experiencing a burnout. Burnout most times leads to a total shutdown of all systems in the body and it causes a person to become completely nonfunctional. Burnout causes people to experience long-term exhaustion and diminished interest in life as a whole.

Achieving inner peace is a personal journey. What works for one person may not work for someone else. Yet, there are certain things all of us can do daily that aims at reducing stress levels. They also help restore our sense of internal balance and tranquility, while lowering heart rate and blood pressure.

Do Some Meditation. Meditation has been used for thousands of years. It’s a holistic treatment that helps soothe the body and spirit by reducing stress levels and realigning our chakras, or energy centers in our bodies.

The best thing is meditation comes in all forms and shapes. You can do it for however long, or short a time you can fit into your busy day.

Types of meditation include Mindfulness meditation, mantra meditation, guided meditation, loving-kindness meditation, spiritual meditation and body-mind meditation, progressive relaxation and transcendental meditation. As you can see there is plenty of options to choose from. 

Take Time to Appreciate Nature. There’s something special about spending time outside among the trees and plants, smelling that fresh air. It has a profound impact on our physical and emotional health.

Schedule a weekly walk through the park. Even 10 minutes can make help decrease anxiety and prevent depression.

Other ways to enjoy nature include, Gardening, drawing or painting outside, which is very soothing and also doing your workout outdoors. 

Be Grateful Every day. Finding your inner peace means practicing gratitude every day. This means you focus more on the things you have in life, not dwell on what’s missing from it. Some people use a gratitude journal to write down what they're most thankful for. Try to turn this into a daily habit.

Let Go Of The Past. We’ve all done things in our past we’re not happy with. But living in the past is a sure-fire way to drain your energy. To break this cycle, you have to take actionable steps towards letting the past go. Whatever it is, whatever happened, just accept that it’s over and done with.

And the final way to achieve inner peace is to hold yourself accountable. Being responsible for your actions takes some maturity and confidence. It may be hard to face up to what you’ve said or done. 

It’s also hard listening to someone critiquing your actions. Yet, accepting criticism helps you learn from your mistakes and improve yourself. As a result, you’ll become more resilient.

It’s that time again. Are you ready? Most people look at their annual review with about as much anticipation as one would a root canal. No one truly enjoys the recital of the year’s successes, or worse, the failures. 

The worst part? The part of the conversation where money becomes the focal point of the discussion. In fact, more people dread this aspect of the review so much that they’ll take whatever is offered by way of raise without so much as a murmur.

While you’re certainly being agreeable enough, did you know you might be leaving money on the table? In fact, your annual review is the perfect place to negotiate a raise, setting yourself up for a significant earnings increase.

Here’s how to do it:

Document Everything

Your preparation for this moment should have started in the days following your last annual review. If you’ve done your homework, you’ve kept a record of what work you’ve accomplished, and all projects you’ve been part of, along with a list of your personal contributions to each. Weren’t quite prepared enough? Sit down and recreate as much of this material as you can in the days leading up to your review (and remember to start documenting for next year immediately afterward).

Know the Numbers

How much are others in your position earning, keeping in mind your experience and what part of the country you live in? Don’t know? Find out online. Knowledge is power.

Keep Your Ear to the Ground

How are other people’s reviews going? Listen for word about whether the expected raises were more or less for this year. 

What is Your Dollar Amount?

Using the information you have now, have a figure in mind going into the meeting. What amount would you like to see for the coming year?

Hold Your Ground

Once you’re in the meeting, don’t be afraid to use the information you’ve brought to the table to make your case. No matter what, don’t be combative, belligerent, emotional, or otherwise negative in your approach. Simply state the facts and go from there.

Ask for a Plan

Still got a ‘no’? Talk to your employer about what needs to happen to gain the desired level of salary. Make a timeline and ask for another review somewhere down the road to revisit the issue after you’ve made those changes.

Make it Official

Once you have a plan in place (or better yet, a promise of a raise) make sure you have the details in writing. This doesn’t have to be some long official document. Even a quick memo sent to HR and your boss should suffice. Make sure to include any details that came out in the discussion.

Do you sometimes feel like your emotions are out of control? Do you lose your temper quickly or often regret how you treated someone else? Let’s review the warning signs of poor emotional health. 

Isolation or Social Withdrawal. If you find yourself isolating, your emotional health may be suffering. If you are unsure about your relationship with yourself, you might avoid relationships with others. If you find that you are spending more time alone and are turning away opportunities to be with loved ones and friends, your emotional health may need some attention.

Blaming Others. One of the most common forms of self-sabotage is to blame other people for your own mistakes or failures. Blaming is a sign that you have not accepted responsibility for your own emotions, behaviors, or choices, and that you lack the self-awareness necessary to process how you feel about your situation. 

Arguing. If you find that you get into a lot of arguments, whether it is with friends, coworkers, family, or even complete strangers, then this is a sign that you are not processing your emotions well. When you hold things in, they can manifest as anger, and when you are not attuned to others’ feelings, you may find yourself frustrated with their behaviors. 

Regretting Your Behavior. How often do you think to yourself, “I really wish I hadn’t done that. What is WRONG with me that I can’t control myself” When you are not dealing with your emotions in healthy ways, it can lead to decisions that do not support good health or that hard your relationships with others. 

Being Confused by Others’ Emotions. If you struggle with emotional health, it can be difficult to understand or deal with other people’s emotions, too. If you are often confused about why other people react the way they do or are annoyed that someone has an emotional reaction to a situation, it is a sign that your own emotional wellness is not that great. 

Trouble in Relationships. Whether it is friends, family, or romantic partners, if you find that people are always leaving or finding ways to spend less time with you, that is a big red flag that you need to improve your emotional wellness. Cultivating and maintaining relationships is a sign of emotional health, and if you lack in this area, then working on your own emotional wellness is a significant first step.

How Do Toxic Relationships Affect Us?
Toxic relationships are relationships where you usually feel worse being with a person than you would feel being without them. 

Sometimes, when you love someone, it can be difficult to leave the relationship behind. As difficult as it is, you should cut off a toxic relationship because it has huge implications for your health and happiness. 

Toxic Relationships Damage Your Mental Health

Mental health is critical when it comes to being successful and happy in your life. The number one thing that toxic relationships do is destroy your mental health. You will feel like you are constantly locked in a mental battle with your partner, and this will leave you feeling exhausted all the time. This exhaustion, combined with the low self-worth that you feel from your partner constantly putting you down, will increase your stress levels and could lead to depression. Depression can be a slippery slope in mental health and can lead to other conditions manifesting. 

Toxic Relationships Change Your View of the World
When you are in a toxic relationship, you will likely feel anxious about several things with your partner. You may be afraid to ask them to do things or not expect them to help you. When this happens day in and day out, you will soon think that everyone in the world is like this when they are not. 

This will make you an overall pessimistic person, and you will likely lose friends over it. They will tell you that you are in a toxic relationship and should leave, but you won't see the point. 

Toxic Relationships Affect Your Future Relationships
Another effect of toxic relationships that most people don't realize is that they affect your future relationships. Spending too much time in toxic relationships will cause you not to know how a healthy relationship is supposed to feel. When a healthy relationship presents itself, you may not even realize it.  

Additionally, you may be hesitant to start a new relationship because your last one went so badly. This apprehension can lead to you pushing people away when you may need them most. 

No matter how you look at it, being in a toxic relationship is terrible for you. It affects your mental health, your worldview, and even the relationships you may have in the future. This is why you should never stay in a relationship that you think may be toxic—instead, you should get out. 

3 Ways to Handle a Toxic Relationship

So maybe you've recently discovered that your relationship is toxic. One of the reasons a relationship is toxic is because it is so difficult to leave, and you may feel totally and completely isolated. 

You might be wondering how you should deal with a toxic relationship. Below are three ways 

When you are in a toxic relationship, you will lie to protect yourself from the other person's wrath and lie to protect yourself from the truth. Well, it's time to stop lying. If you aren't truly happy in the relations
