Ep.7 Burnout Is Real: Are You Exhausted?
Sometimes homeschool burnout goes completely unrecognized for what it really is. Sometimes we don't know it exists. We don't see it coming. It can be passed off as hormonal changes or even depression. But the fact is, is that this is exhaustion. Parenting exhaustion.
Homeschool burnout is very similar to parenting exhaustion. It's simply when you're investing far more energy (both mental and physical) than you really have to spare. Many parents convince themselves that "this is the way it is" however, this not the way it needs to be. Maybe you've felt exhausted or neglected along your family's homeschool journey. I'm here to tell you that you don't have to feel this way.
In This Episode
In this episode I discuss my personal experience with being exhausted as a single parent unschooler. There are a few ways that you can find relief and support when and where you need it. Rather through prayer, meditation, or exercise. I encourage you to find moments for self care for yourself. It's important to spend time with yourself and to do wellness checks on yourself. Remember, if you are not at your best, than your children will not be at theirs. You cannot support others while running on low fuel. Find ways to boost your energy and spirit.
