Accredited one-day CPD training from The STILL Method
Burnout Coaching Masterclass
When exhaustion becomes your normal, it’s time to understand burnout, not just manage stress.
Burnout doesn’t arrive overnight. It creeps in quietly, hidden behind “just one more email” or “I’ll rest when things calm down.”
But the truth is, burnout isn’t about workload, it’s about safety.
When the body doesn’t feel safe enough to rest, it keeps running long after energy is gone.
The Burnout Coaching Masterclass reveals what’s happening beneath the exhaustion and shows how to rebuild calm, focus, and safety using The STILL Method’s proven framework.
This accredited one-day burnout training course blends psychology, neuroscience, and trauma-informed practice to help you recognise, prevent, and recover from burnout — for yourself and for the people you support.

What makes burnout different from stress
Stress is a short-term surge of adrenaline — you still feel alert, motivated, and tense.
Burnout is the collapse that comes when that system never switches off.
The nervous system stays on high alert until energy, confidence, and purpose drain away.
This masterclass teaches you to recognise that shift early and guide others back towards recovery before collapse becomes crisis.
You’ll learn to see burnout not as failure, but as a survival response, a body doing its best to keep going when rest feels unsafe.
What you’ll learn
During this one-day accredited burnout CPD, you’ll explore five key strands that move from understanding to action.
1. The Physiology of Burnout
Understand what long-term stress does to the brain, hormones, and focus. Learn to identify the physical and emotional signs that burnout has begun.
2. Fear and Safety in Recovery
Discover why many people feel anxious when they rest and how to use body-based coaching tools to re-teach safety and calm.
3. Guilt and Overgiving
Explore the patterns that keep caring professionals in exhaustion — perfectionism, guilt, and people-pleasing — and how to replace them with self-compassion and boundaries.
4. STILL Tools for Regulation
Apply the five pillars of The STILL Method — Stop, Talk, Imagine, Listen, Learn — to restore balance and create sustainable habits of rest and recovery.
5. Sustainable Energy and Confidence
Create realistic, science-backed recovery plans for yourself or clients. Learn how to maintain motivation without sliding back into burnout.
By the end of the day, you’ll have a structured, trauma-informed approach to burnout prevention and recovery that you can use immediately.
