Burnout results from chronic stress and when we experience it, we can feel exhausted, hopeless and ineffective. Our performance suffers and we can feel disconnected at work and at home. Over time, stress and burnout can lead to even more significant physical and mental health problems.

Many of us yearn for a map which will guide us from languishing to flourishing, narrated by an expert who has climbed the same mountain. This book is that map - distilling a century of science into a three-step recipe for treating burnout: Soothe, transcend, then move.

Research is supported by relatable personal stories, practical real-life lessons and beautiful illustrations. This is the emotional life manual that the overwhelmed reader needs; just Start Here.
