Summer is now officially over, which means everyone is back to work. Many enjoy returning to their daily routine, while others feel uneasy about this. This is also called an autumn burnout.

Because we now spend many days indoors, it is difficult for many to stay motivated and pursue goals. How do you get such a burnout? And how do you avoid it exactly? We have some tips.

What causes autumn burnout?

In the summer you spend a lot of time outside, so you get vitamin D. This is different in the fall; the days are shorter and you spend a lot of time indoors. The effect of the transition between these two seasons is also called seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Your body experiences a lot of pressure, which goes against your biological clock. This is because you have to go back to work in the fall, while summer is often all about relaxing and doing fun things. There are a number of things you can do to avoid fall burnout next fall.

Ensure the right balance

In addition to your career, it is important to also have a nice private life. Set boundaries when it comes to work: for example, turn off your phone after a working day and don’t work on weekends. This gives you time to recharge and enjoy your day off.

Still want to pursue your dream career, without too much stress? These tips will help you with that.

Pay attention to your health

We humans have a tendency to neglect ourselves when we are not feeling well. By maintaining a healthy lifestyle you stay motivated and can perform better at work. Make sure you get enough sleep, eat healthy and exercise. This will make you feel more energetic and prevent autumn burnout.

Maintain contacts

Make sure you don’t isolate yourself. Maintain the contacts that give you energy. If you feel like you’re not feeling well, it’s important to talk about it with the people you love. You are not the only one who suffers from this phenomenon and by bringing up the conversation you may discover that someone in your circle of acquaintances is also suffering from autumn burnout.
