Burnout Resilience Program
Join psychologist Diane Malaspina, Ph.D and Tiffany Cruikshank, L.Ac. for this 5-week guided program that provides information, practices & techniques, and personalized resources to help you progress through burnout.
Program Description
With burnout becoming such a prevalent & timely issue, we’re excited to share this brand-new, research-based program to help support & prevent burnout. This intentionally curated 5-week guided program provides information, practices, and individualized resources to help you move through burnout.
Burnout is a syndrome of chronic unmitigated stress mostly studied as a workplace phenomenon, but can occur within any situation that creates exhaustion, negative mood, and reduced effectiveness. Since 2020, workplace surveys report more than half of employees are experiencing burnout leading to challenges with physical and mental health and reduced performance.
Yoga, breath work, and mindfulness practices can be potent tools to help alleviate and prevent the onset and progression of Burnout Syndrome. In this course we’ll explore a variety of practices that aid in recovery and build resilience. We’ll use breathwork, restorative yoga, movement practices, meditation, acupressure, and MFR along with education and mindset shifts to help dial in your unique tool set for working with and preventing burnout. Diane Malaspina, Ph.D. brings over 20 years of experience as a psychologist and coach to provide the research and psychological lens of burnout, recovery, and resilience. Our founder, Tiffany Cruikshank, L.Ac, MAOM, brings over 20 years of experience in Chinese Medicine to lend a different perspective & additional resources to train the nervous system for resilience. We’ll investigate physiological arousal and performance, the window of tolerance, symptoms & risk factors of burnout, the art of regulation & recovery, and the individual patterns & consequences of burnout on the brain. This course will also examine active recovery strategies, tools for antifragility, and yoga applications throughout that serve to burnout proof for future resilience.
In addition, participants will have the opportunity to create an individualized burnout plan that can be used personally or as a yoga teacher seeking to support others who experience burnout. The course format is a guided program for those with burnout but also provides a learning experience for those working with clients with burnout.

“I'm continually impressed with the quality of Yoga Medicine programming, the dedication to real, usable education, and the hearts of the group of people that show up to each training. Each YM training has served me perfectly at that moment in my life, and I just want to express my gratitude again to you Tiffany and your team for your tireless commitment to creating exceptional experiences.”Sophie Tashkovski
500-Hour Yoga Medicine Teacher
“There is no doubt that I have become a better teacher with each training I attend. YM trainings have fine tuned my understanding of anatomy, and helped me better understand how to help individual clients feel best in their bodies. I’ve also learned about my own body and how to treat it with kindness. YM trainings have changed my Yoga perspective-when I started as a Yoga student, I thought you had to push yourself at all costs to achieve a pose. Now I accept where I am on any given day and know that it might be different the next day.”Meet the teachers...
