Breaking the Cycle of Burnout

October carries a certain rhythm. The summer rush has faded, the back-to-school scramble has settled, and yet many of us already feel the creeping weight of the holiday season. Before the swirl of family gatherings, work deadlines, and endless to-do lists, it is common to feel worn thin. This is often the beginning of a cycle of burnout that can take the joy out of the season ahead.

At Transcend Health Spa in San Antonio, we believe October is the perfect month to interrupt that cycle. Think of this time as a wellness reset, a chance to restore balance before life speeds up again. By investing in rest and recovery now, you build the resilience and energy you need to move into the holidays with more ease and less stress.
