Fight Travel Burnout with Healthy Habits like Sleep
Are you always traveling for business? Do you find yourself exhausted after that last tradeshow? Feeling overwhelmed, irritable, exhausted, and forgetful are just a few symptoms of a burnt out business traveler.
The Miami Herald offered tips for professionals to fight burnout:
Sleep – Getting enough sleep is something that many entrepreneurs decide they can do without but it is one of the most important defenses against burnout. Our sleep expert Dr. Drake recommends adults get 7-8 hours of sleep.
Exercise – Physical activity helps reduce stress, so experts recommend a relaxing walk or bicycle ride, or a meditative yoga session.
Schedule a Timeout – It’s hard for many small-business owners to stop working, but scheduling some down time like watching TV for half an hour or reading a book can help keep burnout at bay.
Travelers who are constantly on the road can experience negative effects on their work but with a little effort, and sleep, experts say small business owners can alleviate the impacts of business traveling.
