Mayo Clinic Strategies to Reduce Burnout: 12 Actions to Create the
Ideal Workplace tells the story of the evolving journey of those in
the medical profession. It dwells not on the story of burnout,
distress, compassion fatigue, moral injury, and cognitive
dissonance but rather on a narrative of hope for professional
fulfillment, well-being, joy, and camaraderie. Achieving this aim
requires health care professionals and administrative leaders
working together to create the ideal workplace-through nurturing
positivity and pushing negativity aside. The ultimate aspiration is
esprit de corps-the common spirit existing in members of a group
that inspires enthusiasm, devotion, loyalty, camaraderie,
engagement, and strong regard for the welfare of the team and of
common interests and responsibilities. Mayo Clinic Strategies to
Reduce Burnout: 12 Actions to Create the Ideal Workplace provides a
road map for you to create esprit de corps for your team and
organization. The map is paved with information about reliable,
patient-centered, and thoughtful systems embedded within
psychologically safe and just cultures. The authors drew on their
extensive research on the well-being of health care professionals;
from their experience in quality, department operations, leadership
and organization development, management, safe havens, and care
teams; and from their roles as president, chief wellness officer,
chief quality officer, chair, principal investigator, senior
fellow, and board director.

Attacks Depression, Low Mood or Melancholia Low Confidence and
Self-Esteem If you have reached Breakdown or Burnout, this unique
and life changing book will be invaluable to you. Whilst working in
a mental health setting for 30 years Mary Heath soon discovered
that everyone she encountered shared a similar problem: no one
appeared to have any knowledge at all of how to cope with the
stress of life and its consequences. The great majority of patients
had no coping skills or strategies at all. No one had been taught
how to deal with stress, and many didn't even know what stress was
and why they felt so helpless, so alone and so afraid. Mary on the
other hand had a very large tool box and a set of skills that
helped all of them to change their lives around and become
healthier and stronger in every way. Having been trained in many
disciplines in the field of stress, anxiety, depression and
personal development she was able to tailor an individual's
requirements, according to their specific needs. Working with a
wide-ranging and extensive variety of therapies Mary taught people
not just how to cope but how to really live again. Many of the
techniques and therapies Mary used can be found in this book and
include: The Simple Principles of the Philosophy of Yoga Pranayama
- a unique sequence of breath control exercises Relaxation,
Meditation and Mindfulness Stress and Anxiety Management Depression
Management Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Self-Esteem and
Confidence Building Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) Emotional
Freedom Technique (EFT) Life Coaching

the extent to which it affects our lives. Maureen Cooper explains

transform our habitual way of responding to stress by training
ourselves in compassion and thereby improving our sense of control

Up to 44 in every 1000 adults suffer from a condition known as
Generalised Anxiety Disorder. This is much more than the normal
worrying we all do - it can be a debilitating disorder leading to
significant personal and social problems and sometimes financial
loss. Using established and proven CBT techniques, expert
clinicians Kevin Meares and Mark Freeston help readers to
understand that it is their propensity to worry, not the multitude
of problems they worry about, that is the root of the problem. The
user-friendly, step-by-step approach explains why they worry, how
to recognise what feeds it and develop effective methods of dealing
with it. With each step the authors introduce new ideas that add to
the picture of worry, and use questionnaires, exercises and tasks
to help the reader understand and then challenge unhelpful habits
and beliefs.
