A destination for those who want to navigate their way to a better future, Sylo Magazine’s mission is to answer life’s most difficult and pertinent questions.

From improving your finances and managing your mental health to developing better relationships and career opportunities, Sylo promises to do exactly what it stands for -- to help you ‘Sort Your Life Out’ (SYLO).

    Beating Burnout

    Beating Burnout

    Do you feel stressed, tired or just numb to the mounting pressures of everyday life? If so, you might be going through burnout.
    But what do we mean by burnout, how does it affect us, and what should we do about it to help ourselves, our family, friends or colleagues who might be suffering from it?
    In this episode of the Sort Your Life Out (SYLO) podcast, I speak to two mental health experts to get all the answers to your burning questions. Tune in now to hear from:
    Dr Rachel Morris, a GP, executive and team coach specialising in resilience in the workplace. Rachel taught General Practice at the University of Cambridge for some twenty years, before branching out into coaching. She is the founder of the Shapes Toolkit for stressed-out doctors, and podcast host of ‘You are not a frog’.
    Chevy Rough is a wellbeing and performance coach, the self-proclaimed ‘Wellbeing CEO’ on Instagram, ambassador for the men’s mental health charity CALM, and star of BBC documentary Mind Over Marathon, where he coached ten people with mental health issues how to run the gruelling London Marathon.
    Listen to the episode now to get a practical guide to beating burnout, to learning about the crossovers with stress, depression and anxiety, and how relatively simple things like breathing, exercise and maintaining your energy flow can help. We also tackle how managers can spot the signs in team members, and why you need to throw your new year’s resolution straight in the bin...
