Noticing and Recovering from Burnout

About the event

Burnout is on the rise in student populations, and it can be extremely depleting and difficult to navigate. In this workshop, we will reflect on the reasons for burnout, including through a neurodivergent lens. We’ll work with a personalised framework to explore our own individual signs of approaching the state of burnout, and discuss methods of burnout recovery. Leave the workshop with a greater sense of self-compassion, kindness, and tools for moving forward!

There will also be FREE Pizza at this event!
