It’s Well-being in Law Week and so I have a special message today for my siblings at bar. Ready? Here goes:
1. You are not superhuman. You are just regular human. That means that you need sleep, water, food, sunshine, exercise, human interaction, laughter. All of those things.
2. Burnout sneaks up on you. It’s so, so easy to miss it until you’re deep in the muck of it. To protect yourself, create and keep a self-care routine, talk about the hard stuff, and know your warning signs. You can see my article on that here.
3. Take a moment this week to learn more on these topics. Read an article, do a CLE, watch a TED Talk. There are a million fabulous resources here. I’ve got a CLE on compassion fatigue when working with clients in trauma that you can watch here. Extra credit for passing something along to a friend.
I care about you, my friends. Take the support you need, this week and in the future.
