Are you feeling these emotional, physical, and behavioral symptoms? 

 

Before you can look for a solution, assess your mental health. Mental exhaustion or burnout often results in the following emotional and physical signs: 

 

Emotional signs: 

  • Anxiety
  • Cynicism
  • Apathy
  • Detachment
  • Anger
  • Feeling of dread
  • Reduced motivation 
  • Depression 

 

Physical signs:

  • Lack of sleep or insomnia 
  • Body aches 
  • Chronic fatigue 
  • Appetite changes 
  • Weight gain 

 

These symptoms, combined, can lead to poor performance, lack of discipline, social withdrawal, and inability to keep up with commitments. 

While mental exhaustion may not lead directly to any physical symptoms, it can cause behavioral symptoms. And over time, these behavioral problems can reduce your capacity to achieve your goals. You need to make sure that your mind, body, and soul are in harmony to avoid any of the aforementioned symptoms. 

So here are some of the top wearable tech brands that can help you maintain health and be ready for the challenges ahead.
