18. The One Where You’re Tired Of Carrying The Mental Load

  • Summary

  • Feeling like you’ve been more forgetful lately: forgetting your keys, or phone, or walking into a room and having no idea what you came for? Those are all signs of mental fatigue- and chances are your brain is tired too from carrying the mental load.

    In this episode, Dr. Sarah shares how she knew she was dealing with mental fatigue, what the key signs of mental fatigue are, and how to start giving your brain the rest it desperately craves. We also talk about 2 other types of fatigue that often go hand-in-hand with mental fatigue: emotional fatigue and sensory fatigue.

    Tune in for a very practical episode to learn more about what kind of tired you are and what you can do to put more energy back where your body needs it most.

    Key takeaways:

    • If your doctor can’t find a physical explanation for why you’re tired, it may be time to look at mental, emotional and sensory fatigue
    • How to stop the exhausting cycle of people pleasing & start living more authentically
    • Why anyone who has kids or works at a computer needs to practise sensory rest & how to start
