Feeling flat, foggy, and exhausted… again?
Jun 18, 2025
Burnout isn’t just in your head. Burnout shows up physically too: fatigue, low mood, sleep issues, and brain fog. But what if the root cause is deeper?
👉🏽 Enter: your gut!
What happens when your gut is struggling? When your gut lining becomes ‘leaky,’ harmful particles and bacteria sneak into your bloodstream. This triggers chronic inflammation, which can worsen fatigue, anxiety, and hormonal imbalances.
The Gut–Stress Cycle. Stress weakens your gut lining. A leaky gut increases inflammation. Inflammation impacts your mood, energy, and resilience. It’s a vicious cycle.
Signs Your Gut Needs Support
- Bloating
- Brain fog
- Food sensitivities
- Mood swings
- Trouble sleeping
- Feeling “wired but tired”
How to Start Healing
- Prioritise rest (yes, really)
- Nourish with anti-inflammatory foods
- Add bone broth or fermented foods
- Reduce sugar, alcohol, and gluten
- Consider removing common triggers like dairy
The good news? Your gut is resilient, and so are you. Support your gut and you’ll feel stronger from the inside out.
You don’t need to push through burnout. You need to heal.
