SELLEST OSAST
Why do you sometimes feel exhausted, get into bed, close your eyes — and suddenly your mind starts thinking about work?
For many corporate professionals, the working day doesn't really end when they leave the office. Emails, deadlines, meetings, difficult conversations, career worries and unfinished tasks can continue running through the mind long after work has finished.
In this episode of Wave Work Stress Goodbye, Luke Richardson explores the connection between work stress, sleep, work anxiety and overthinking, and why so many professionals struggle to switch off from work when they're lying in bed trying to sleep.
We explore:
• Why work thoughts can become louder when you finally get into bed
• Why corporate professionals can struggle to mentally switch off after work
• How work stress and anxiety can contribute to racing thoughts at night
• Why worrying about tomorrow can keep you awake tonight
• The relationship between overthinking, workplace stress and poor sleep
• How career pressure, responsibility and professional expectations can follow you home
• Why burnout and chronic workplace stress can affect our ability to rest
• A different way of understanding work stress from the inside out
If you've ever found yourself lying awake at night replaying conversations, worrying about tomorrow's workload, thinking about your career or mentally working through problems that can wait until morning, this episode is for you.
Rather than simply offering another list of sleep hacks, this conversation looks deeper at why work continues to feel present even when you're physically away from work — and how a different understanding of stress can change your experience of it.
