    It’s important to have healthy coping mechanisms. My three main ways of dealing with burnout are: 1. Manual labor, 2. Journal, 3. Play an instrument. If I have enough energy, doing a quick exercise routine or cleaning the kitchen and bathroom or some other physical task tends to help. If I’m feeling sluggish too, then I shift to playing an instrument (piano or guitar for me). If anxiety is part of the problem, journaling helps.
