Recovering from burnout
Recovering from burnout, rebuilding yourself from the ground, is not that simple and takes a long time... You need to know where to get started, what are the best solutions for you, what works, what is essential to recover and then do the work, month after month, to be able to function again, to work again, to live fully again.
We are here to help you do this, help you understand what is happening, help you find the right strategies and solutions for you, help you be yourself again, maybe even more than before.
What is burnout?
Burnout is a long-term extreme physical, mental and emotional fatigue
caused by excessive and prolonged overload.
It is not “in your head”, your adrenals are exhausted and therefore the problem starts in your body and affects you on all fronts. There is a “before” and an “after”, you go into burnout suddenly but it takes years to get there. Most people collapse abruptly. Too much work, too much stress, too much pressure… One day, your body switches the “off” button. In most cases, you collapse in a heap on the floor or find you are physically unable to get up in the morning. From one moment to the next, everything changes. From then on, like an empty phone battery, you cannot get started again without recharging. You find yourself unable to work, unable to perform even the simplest task, constantly exhausted. Unfortunately, unlike a mobile phone, the human body needs more than a few hours to recharge. It usually takes several months, 6 to 12 in most cases, before being able to go back to “normal” life. Your body is depleted, your adrenals are unable to function properly, you have reached complete body-mind exhaustion.
"Burnout is “Radical Healing”, a forced improvement of self. Burnout feels like the end of the world. It is not.
It is the beginning of a new one.” Dina Glouberman: The Joy of burnout
If you are or think you are in burnout, we are here. We have created this programme to help you rebuild with more serenity. Whether you have already put some solutions in place or not, our programme is the ideal complement, it will help you put in place a more complete strategy to strenghten and improve your recovery.
This programme is for you if:
You have been unable to work, are on sick leave for burnout and do not know what to do from there or what you have put in place does not seem to be enough.
You have been in burnout for several months or years or you were a few years back and are still not fully back to your usual state of energy: you are still feeling too tired, have a short attention span or difficulties memorising, aches and pain or panic attacks.
You are feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, with zero energy, a brain that does not function like it used to, you have high anxiety, your body is in pain...
You wish this would stop and you could go back to your usual activities in the way that you like. You would like to feel ready to work again in the best way.
How does it work?
First we talk: the consultation
We start with a one-hour online consultation with Florence. This will allow you to:
Understand what is happening exactly and where you are at.
Review what you have already tried or put in place and what is missing in your recovery strategy so that you are able to recover fully, body, mind and spirit.
Advise you on your strategy: this may imply additional appointments with other profesionals depending on what you have already done or not. A multi-therapy approach is always essential for a complete and durable recovery. We advise, you decide. We can refer you to specialist professionals we know or you can chose your own. You decide to make appointements when the time is right for you.
Give you personalised advice to improve your everyday life.
Our goal is to help you put in place everything that is necessary for your recovery.
We can then plan some sophrology and/or coaching sessions for you.

Florence Parot, founder of La Bulle de Repos
I am a Sophrologist, Coach, Teacher and Author.
I went in burnout aged 23 when I was still a student and it changed my life. I had to rebuild myself from the ground up. It was scary and it was difficult. It took me time to understand where and how to get help and how to be able to still have the buzzy life I wanted while also respecting my own limits. My doctor recommend sophrology to get better. Thanks to sophrology, I was able to manage anxiety, pain, exhaustion, stress... I was able to live again with more serenity and balance. I built up resilience and could enjoy life again.
For more than 15 years now, in Paris, London, Kent and now central France as well as online, I have helped hundreds of people avoid burnout or recover from it.
I have helped them release their stress and anxiety, find a balance, a calmer and more harmonious life, they have found solutions for a better life, they have been able to rebuild themselves and be truly themselves. I have also trained many sophrologists on burnout prevention and recovery all over Europe.
I know how hard it is not to know what to do about burnout or who to ask for help and I would like to help you avoid being lost by guiding you every step of the way through this programme.
Florence
What Florence's clients have said over the years:
“ I had been looking for months at burnout solutions. In just one consultation you have allowed me to understand at last clearly and precisely what was really happening to me and how to get out of it."
“A great listener, empathy and kindness, Florence gave me everything I needed at that time.”
"Your teaching and guidings are always clear and of the highest quality. The way you communicate with others simple and authentic.”
“ Florence's style is both calm and full of energy, joyful, clear and down to earth.
Her listening skills, her kindness and her expertise are such that I have always felt I could trust her implicitly.”
“Your authenticity, gentleness and inner strength made a real difference for me.
Thank you.”
"Working with Florence has helped me gain perspective, consider events from a different, more positive, angle, accept that time is necessary for change. As for the sophrology techniques themselves, learning to breathe has helped me feel calmer or more energetic; visualising, also esential for my energy levels, has helped me project myself in the future with a more positive approach.”
