3 Simple Steps to Manage Burnout (without Valium)

 

3 Simple Steps to Manage Burnout (without Valium)





Are you feeling overwhelmed? Overworked? And exhausted? 

Do you feel like you reached your tipping point?

I did! Thankfully, I recognized it and took positive action, instead of falling apart, and having a nervous breakdown.  

What threw me almost over the edge was not sleeping, because of a crazy cough and trying to DO too many things! Like my dad always said, “Don’t try to wear too many hats.”

And my patient reminded me, “Dr. Gold, you can’t be sick!”

What Can YOU DO when you reach your limit? Grandmaster Steve did a great podcast on this.

Remember the 3 R’s:


1.   Recognize what is going on and remember YOU have the Power to do something about it.

2.   Respond instead of reacting. What can you do to improve the situation? Or maybe NOT Do? What is a game plan that will serve you? Do you need a mentor, coach, therapist, trainer, or physician (or maybe all the above)?

3.   Relax- know that it will all work out. It always does, and that you’ll be OK.  A tough season doesn’t mean it will stay that way. Winter is always followed by Spring, where things start to BLOOM again! 

 


 

 

For me I started doing a lot more yoga, deep breathing and stretching. I also used this time to reflect and get closer to nature.

 

I also planned a yoga retreat at Yogaville. For less than $100 a night I get my own room, three healthy meals a day, with daily yoga classes and meditation.

Can Plug-ins Make YOU Sick and Fat?

  Can Fragrances (e.g. perfumes, colognes, air fresheners)  Make YOU SICK & FAT? Did you know the scent within many perfumes and colognes along with plug-ins (and many other household and beauty products have chemical fragrances or parfums in their ingredients i.e., Febreze, Lysol, Clorox Bleach, Dawn, Tide, Irish Spring, Fabuloso etc) which contain many harmful chemicals. According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG.org), many of the chemicals in these synthetic fragrances contain phthalates, which can disrupt hormones, worsen asthma, allergies, lead to headaches, fatigue, weight gain (as these chemicals get stored in the fat), weaken the immune system, and even possibly cause cancer. What to do?   Use natural products.  For not much more money, you can get products from Seventh Generation (SeventhGeneration.com), Ecos (ecos.com) etc. that don’t contain many of these harmful chemicals. These ecofriendly products can smell nice and be just as effective at eliminati

How to Relieve Pain Long Term & Naturally

Image
  How to Relieve Pain Long Term & Naturally Our body is connected (as you know!), but when we see a traditional doc, they may only focus on the specific body part for which you are having a problem. For example, when I saw my neurosurgeon for neck pain, they only looked at my neck. I have a history of many ankle sprains. Once I addressed strengthening my ankles, which I never thought to do because they didn't hurt, my neck pain improved. The chiropractor explained my "weak ankles likely turned in my hips and shoulders, which likely affected my neck". Once I strengthened my ankles and stretched my hips and shoulders more, my neck pain improved (without the surgery). I've seen many patients with knee pain where the cause of the their pain was related to tight hips or problems with their feet (which they told me was never addressed before). The great part is they are improving and feeling better and are not taking their pain medicines any longer (e.g. T
