Mentioned on Ep 030: 5 Ways to Simplify your Life to help with healthcare burnout!
Welcome back to The Burnout Doctor Podcast with Dr. Jessica Louie! On episode 30, we are talking about five ways to simplify your life in healthcare and help with healthcare burnout!
Number one: spend time alone. As an introvert myself, I recharge by energy alone (versus extroverts recharge surrounded by people). Being an introvert or extrovert is not related to being out-going or not. It’s about how we recharge ourselves. Find out how you like to rejuvenate your own energy levels and apply that to you life today.
Number two: simplify and declutter. I recommend starting with your physical clutter using the KonMari Method. After you address what is closest to you, your home, you can apply the simplifying concepts to mental clutter, emotional clutter and spiritual clutter.
Number three: start walking. Getting out into nature is an excellent way to reset stress and burnout. Walking simplifies life by allowing time to reflect and clear our brain clutter.
Number four: allow yourself a “nothing” day once a week or once a month. This can be digital detox or digital unplug day as while. You can schedule in this “white space” day and allow your day to take it where it’s meant to go.
Number five: change mindset around meal prepping. Changed to food prepping. Yes, food prepping. Simplifying this to simply combine vegetables and proteins for meals. After going to the grocery store, this means washing, cleaning and chopping up the vegetables right away, then placing into storage containers to use throughout the week as raw vegetables/fruit or cook on the stove or roast in the oven.
