Kelsey Patel: How to Ease Burnout

“Each of us has a story of why we burn out,” says Reiki master Kelsey Patel, who just released her first book, Burning Bright.

But we don’t have to suffer in order to do it: Today, Patel teaches us how we can begin to turn inward to fill ourselves up so that we can more productively turn outward to take on the world. She talks about tools that have been helpful along her journey, like emotional freedom technique (EFT), or tapping. And she takes us through a simple breathing exercise for checking in with our chakras and identifying energetic blocks.
