Beating burnout is possible! This book will guide you step-by-step to heal—and prevent—burnout. Burnout is a common term for a state of perceived exhaustion of energy. Instead of dwelling on this problem that many nurses today are familiar with, this textbook focuses on solutions to beating burnout that you can immediately adapt to your personal needs. 
 
This book is about precision self-care for common health concerns, life transitions, and excessive stress that can lead to burnout. In the Elements of Care® gentle medicine program detailed throughout this book, you will trace the roots of ancient healing traditions and discover the power of plant-based medicines. 
 
Plant medicines are gentle but powerful catalysts for change and therefore healing. Herbalism as partnership with plants in human healing has stood the test of time. Simple, familiar, and accessible gentle medicines are the formula for reducing stress, increasing well-being, and beating burnout! Therefore, the Elements of Care® program begins with re-entering the world of plants.
 
Step into a laboratory for personal growth that is right within you and your own kitchen and garden—and beat burnout!  This special edition of the Elements of Care gentle medicine program for advanced practice and registered nurses features two books in one: Textbook and Experiential Guide.
