Description

Many nurses come to Lacey wanting to feel more productive on their days off… they feel like they are a waste of space because all they want to do is sleep, rest, watch tv and numb out… 

First of all - we need a perspective shift on rest. Rest is not lazy, it is extremely productive. We need to regenerate and relax after work…

Why?

  • Improve cognitive function 
  • Restore our mental health 
  • Reflect and integrate 

If you see a pattern where you are feeling like crap after every single shift and its taking you over 24 hours to bounce back… there may be a bigger issue and you may be experiencing the post shift hangover… 

In this episode Lacey talks about... 

What does the post shift hang over feel like.

What can you do to prevent it. 

Over all it is so important that you are treating yourself well both on and off the job.
