When everything feels harder than it should — and how to find your way back
eBook Edition £6.90
____________________________
Running on Empty was developed in response to the growing demand for our Burnout and Nervous System retreats at The Barn Wellbeing Centre.
As more people began to recognise themselves in the patterns of burnout, it became clear that this work needed to extend beyond the retreat space.
This book brings together the core ideas, tools, and reflections used within those sessions, making them accessible in a format you can return to again and again.
Written by Kate Robbins, Running on Empty is a practical, reflective guide to understanding burnout and rebuilding your energy.
It explores:
▪️why burnout happens and how it affects the body and mind
▪️why symptoms like anxiety, fatigue, and overwhelm can linger
▪️ how to begin restoring balance through small, manageable changes
In this book you’ll find a combination of explanation, structured exercises, and simple tools designed to help you make sense of what you’re experiencing and start moving forward.

This book is for you if:
▪️everything feels harder than it used to
▪️you feel constantly tired, overwhelmed, or stretched too thin
▪️you’ve tried to “push through” but it’s no longer working
▪️you’re not in crisis, but you know something isn’t right
This book isn't about quick fixes, it’s about understanding what’s happening and taking steady, realistic steps to rebuild.
