Resilience - Meaning & Satisfaction without Burnout

     "To improve coping with the challenges of the medical profession, it helps to:

     • Align your practice with the values that support meaning or purpose in your life; 
     • Provide the self-care of adequate nutrition, sleep, exercise, and social interaction; and 
     • Develop insight into the behavior and motivation of yourself & others. 

     Resiliency concepts and skills can help you to retain that balance of meaning and satisfaction in one of life’s most rewarding professions without succumbing to the destructive aspects of burnout."
