When Was The Last Time You Paused?🤔🤔

When was the last time you paused? 

You have seen the statistics, 52% of teachers K-12 are burned out. In 2022, 79% of engineers and a whopping 83% of software developers suffer from burnout!  

This is a problem. Here is a tip that will help. 

Last week, I shared that burnout is multifactorial; however, I want to empower others with a tool to prevent or even lessen burnout.  

That is why I developed the P.A.U.S.E. Technique. 

This quick but powerful method incorporates acknowledging and addressing said stressor—then doing something about it now! 

P: Pause 

A: Acknowledge your stressor 

U: Understand how the stressor is affecting you (palpitations, short-temper, tension in your shoulders, lack of mental clarity) 

S: Set a selfcare goal (two minutes of deep breathing exercise, yoga, meditation, walking, journaling, etc.) 

E: Execute the goal 

The next time you find your stress level rising.  

Take a second and P.A.U.S.E. 

 Always wishing you the best, 

Dr. Beckford. 

Whenever you're ready, there are two ways I can help you: 

1. Book me to speak at your next company retreat or conference. 

2. Book me to do an organizational selfcare workshop.
