Burnout is the physical and emotional exhaustion that comes from chronic stress. Different factors can contribute to burnout, from hectic schedules to an insufficient support system. 

Sleep is also a key component in the burnout cycle. Research shows that poor sleep quality is associated with burnout — and the combination of burnout and poor sleep can impact overall functioning, especially at work¹,².

4 strategies for preventing burnout

  1. Identify your stressors – Figure out what’s causing you the most stress, so you can work on reducing it. Try journaling about your feelings, reviewing your calendar for insights, or opening up to a loved one. 
  2. Schedule your sleep – Establishing a more consistent sleep schedule can lead to better sleep, and in turn, better overall well-being. 
  3. Find a bedtime routine – Create a relaxing routine that sets you up for a successful sleep. Maybe that involves eliminating screen time. 
  4. Get help – If you’re struggling, reach out to a mental health professional who can help get you on the right track.

Here’s how one woman improved her insomnia when she couldn’t access in-person therapy:

Before using Sleepio, I was very restless through the night, and at one point became accustomed to waking up at 3 a.m. every morning. Now, my sleeping is much more consistent, and I’m able to sleep more through the night.

Here’s how a working parent used sleep to boost his motivation:

In medical sales, you’re constantly hustling, and there would be days I would sit outside of the hospital in my car for 10 or 15 minutes, not wanting to go in. Now, I feel like Sleepio has helped me get out of my ‘funk’ and feel more driven.

Here’s how one woman with chronic insomnia established a consistent sleep schedule:

Sleepio gave me the tools I needed to establish a sleep schedule and maintain good sleep hygiene. Being able to log your sleep patterns — and receive feedback based on those patterns — was a huge help.

Lastly, here’s how a healthcare worker improved his sleep after an anxiety-inducing medical event:

One of the most helpful techniques I learned was how to reframe your thinking around sleep — previously, I would stay up at night thinking about everything that could potentially go wrong. Now, thanks to Sleepio, I have a designated time before bed to journal and release those negative thoughts so that they don’t impact my sleep.
