Burnout = emotional and physical needs not being met. Mindfulness can begin to help you develop your awareness and work out what you truly need.

Helen shares her personal journey with mindfulness and how it transformed her life after experiencing burnout. She defines mindfulness as bringing your brain and body into the present moment with intention, emphasising the importance of being fully present in our daily lives.

Helen also discusses the value of attention and the need to consciously choose where we direct it, exploring the role of gratitude in mindfulness and offering practical tips for incorporating mindfulness into our routines.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Mindfulness is the practice of bringing your brain and body into the same place at the same time with intention. It involves consciously bringing your attention back to the present moment.

Attention is a valuable gift that we can give to others. By being more mindful and present in our relationships, we can improve the quality of those relationships.

Recovery is essential for high performance and well-being. Stress is not the enemy, but the absence of recovery is. Incorporating recovery rituals into our daily, weekly, and yearly routines is crucial for maintaining balance and avoiding burnout.

Gratitude is a powerful mindfulness technique. Taking time each day to reflect on and appreciate the small things in life can improve our overall well-being and perspective.

BEST MOMENTS

"The biggest gift you can give to people increasingly is your attention. Attention is more valuable than oil."

"Often we can spend a lot of our lives with our minds and our bodies in different places."

"Rest is the secret source of high performance."

"Stress forces us into a high performance state. It's often where we do our best work."
