Sophie Christophy explores self care and avoiding burn out as a Change Maker. Change-making is demanding work, that can take it's toll on body, mind and soul, and without self-care and burnout awareness, it is hard for activists to persist in their work in a healthy way.

In this session the group explores:

• What self-care means and why it's so important.
• Our own stories and experiences on this theme.
• What burn-out is, so that we can recognise it's signs and symptoms in ourselves and others,
• What our own self-care and burn-out aware practice might look like.

The Changemakers Lab is a two year program run by Phoenix Education supporting 14-18 year olds campaigning to reform the education system to better reflect their needs and rights.
