Recognising Burnout in Volunteering

 

Burnout isn’t just physical exhaustion - it’s also emotional depletion, lack of motivation, and disengagement from service.

 

Strategies to Manage and Prevent Burnout

 

1. Reassess Your Commitments

• Are you taking on too many responsibilities? Prioritise tasks that align with your strengths.

 

2. Develop a Self-Care Routine

• Small daily habits - rest, proper meals, and mindfulness - help maintain energy levels.

 

3. Delegate and Share the Load

• Lions Clubs are teams, not solo missions. Involve others to prevent one person from feeling overwhelmed.

 

4. Seek Coaching Support

• A coaching session can help reshape your role, set boundaries, and refocus your purpose.
