Hi there, thank you so much for joining and welcome. My name is Josh. This is Darma Punk's New York, our Tuesday night class. if you are interested in attending our five day retreat, beginning of September over Labor Day, please feel invited.

It's gonna be up a Garrison Institute

and the information is now live on both the Garrison website as well as Darmpunks NYC.com in a beautiful location

overlooking the river with hiking trails and a bunch of teachers.

If you're around maybe an inviting possibility.

It's easy to get to Garrison.

It's just a short hour long ride up the Hudson.

Yeah, so, and as well, if you'd like to support my work, the Venmo is Darmapunks NYC and the PayPal

button is on the website.

So, thank you for joining.

And tonight we're going to be talking about

burnout and cognitive overload and mental fatigue and ways to avoid these outcomes.

So relax, settle in, and jumping right in.

Imagine you are in a normal day with five to ten unread emails.

One email response half written,

maybe you've got some text messages waiting

to be responded to, maybe on your browser there are 10 open tabs maybe at the

same time you're trying to focus on making plans for dinner but you also realize that it's the

tax season so you've also got to focus on preparing the info for your taxes or getting them mailed out and then

suddenly you find yourself unable to focus, unable to take a step forward, stalled, overwhelmed.

Or imagine a job where we're called away from our tasks to an ongoing

unpredictable series of Zoom meetings or messages that pop up from coworkers needing information or changing deliverables.
