Burnout is some part of your body and/or mind telling you you need to stop what you're doing and find a healthier path.
So, dealing with burnout requires you to identify what it is about your current work/life situation that is causing some part of you to apply the brakes.
For me, it's been many different things, but it has included: both fear of failure and fear of success; working for too long on projects that seem destined to fail; working with people who have values I don't share; resentments about all kinds of things that are mostly outside my control (and therefore pointless).
My methods for identifying these issues have included various emotional awareness/healing techniques that allow us to learn about our own subconscious beliefs and behavioural patterns, and then to take steps to adopt more healthy behaviours by aligning our internal thoughts with our external activities.
Feel free to email me if you want suggestions of specific techniques that have worked for me (email in profile).
