What is Burnout and how can diving limit the symptoms?

      Burnout is an occupational stress syndrome characterized by emotional exhaustion, disillusionment with one's work and a decrease in work performance. It has become increasingly common in modern societies and can have serious consequences on the mental and physical health of individuals.

     Scientific studies have shown that scuba diving can help limit the symptoms of burnout. A 2015 study showed that people taking a week-long scuba diving course had significantly lower levels of perceived stress and a better quality of life compared to a control group doing multisport.


     There are several reasons why scuba diving may help limit burnout symptoms. First, the peaceful and quiet underwater environment can help relax the body and mind. In addition, scuba diving can provide a beneficial distraction for people with burnout who may be obsessed with their work. Finally, scuba diving can offer sensory stimulation different from the land environment, which can help break the isolation and monotony that can accompany burnout.

It is important to note that scuba diving may not be advisable depending on a person's advanced state of stress and the medication they may be taking.

Also, if you are interested in diving for stress relief, it is strongly recommended that you work with instructors trained in the Bathysmed protocol which targets the symptoms of stress.

The Bathysmed protocol has been specifically designed to address the pathologies of stress. It is also very effective for people who want to dive differently and/or who wish to improve their quality of life.
