Welcome back to The Simplicity Sessions, I'm delighted that you’ve joined us today. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project and the creator of the women's revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.

The ladies in my practice often use the terms ‘stress’ and ‘burnout’ interchangeably without knowing that there is a difference between the two terms. Stress is when you take on so much work and responsibility that you cannot complete everything. Burnout is when you have given up on tasks and feel disengaged from your daily activities.

Once you realize where you are within the spectrum of stress and burnout, you can focus more on the solutions that will help you get back on track. I discuss the solutions to create a life of simplicity and ease.

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to [email protected] or via Instagram at @jennpike and I'll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts and advice.

Here are the main topics of today’s episode:

• Stress and burnout used interchangeably
• What stress looks like
• What burnout looks like
• Solutions to help during trying times

Quotes -

• “ In a stressed state, you might find that you're over engaged in life.”
• “You don't care about it. You completely disengage another thing in terms of your emotions.”
• “There is a list for every list, for every list for everything. And that is a state of stress versus burnout in which you have never-ending tasks. You have piles of uncompleted things all around you, and it just keeps mounting and mounting.”
• “Eat nourishing foods; get the rest, hydrate your body; and balance your blood sugar. Spend time in nature and get yourself to bed at a good time. Spend time with good quality people. Create space for yourself. Give yourself grace and compassion to feel your way through the life that you are currently living so that you can understand more about some of the things you need to do to create that level of simplicity and ease in the life that you are moving towards."
