Reignite: Yoga Therapy for Burnout
Reignite is an eight-week yoga therapy programme for people living with sustained exhaustion, reduced energy, or a growing sense of disengagement, and who find that rest alone has not been enough to change how they are feeling or functioning.
Burnout can affect not only how much energy you have, but also how you sleep, recover from effort, relate to work, and recognise when you are reaching your limits.
Reignite helps you understand how burnout is affecting your energy, effort, sleep, and recovery, and develop a practice that works with your present capacity. Grounded in yoga therapy and informed by Karthikeyan's MSc study on burnout, the programme gives you time to practise, review what is changing, and adapt what you are doing. The aim is to recognise signs of overload earlier and develop practical ways of managing effort and recovery that can continue beyond the eight weeks.

How yoga therapy for burnout works in Reignite
The work begins with recognising your present capacity and the patterns that affect effort and recovery. Over the eight weeks, the emphasis gradually shifts from awareness to adaptation, helping you respond to signs of overload earlier and establish a steadier rhythm in daily life.
- 01Weeks 1 and 2, Establish. Understand how burnout is affecting sleep, energy, engagement, and recovery, and begin a daily practice suited to your current capacity.
- 02Weeks 3 and 4, Recognise. Notice physical, mental, and behavioural patterns that may be contributing to continued exhaustion or making recovery more difficult.
- 03Weeks 5 and 6, Adapt. Develop movement, breathing, relaxation, and reflective practices that support a more balanced relationship between effort and rest.
- 04Weeks 7 and 8, Integrate. Identify the practices that are most useful and build them into a routine that can continue after the programme.
What changed for participants
Reignite grew out of Karthikeyan's MSc study on burnout and online yoga. In the study, 30 people followed an online yoga programme and filled in the same questionnaires before they started and again at the end.
28 of the 30 people recorded lower burnout scores by the end.
That is 93% of the group. Two did not record a lower score.
Exhaustion
Being depleted, needing more recovery than usual. 27 of the 30 improved, the largest shift we saw.
Disengagement
Losing interest, going through the motions. 23 of the 30 improved. This moved less.
Average sleep score
A lower score means better sleep quality. Measured with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.
Average outlook score
Here a higher score is better. Measured with the Positive Thinking Scale.
Based on matched before-and-after assessments from the 30 people who followed the yoga programme in Karthikeyan's MSc study. Individual results vary.
Participant reflections
The programme helped me deal with my anxiety and my difficulty sleeping. I also received very personalised advice one to one, specific to my own challenges.
Olia Gladkova-BurgessI experienced an improvement of my sleep and energy levels. I also found myself to be calmer and more balanced.
Biljana Frints-TrajanovskaThanks to the yoga practices I learned from Karthikeyan, I was able to recover after a burnout that had lasted for years.
RakaReignite may suit you when
- you are experiencing persistent exhaustion, disengagement, disrupted sleep, or difficulty recovering after effort
- you want a structured programme rather than a one-time class or workshop
- you are comfortable taking part in a small group
- you can maintain a short practice between sessions
- you want to understand how habits, demands, and circumstances may be affecting your capacity to recover
- you value an approach that combines yoga therapy, personal guidance, and review over time
Individual yoga therapy may be more appropriate when
- you are managing several health conditions
- your symptoms or capacity change considerably from week to week
- group participation feels overwhelming
- you need a more closely adapted physical practice
- you would benefit from more frequent individual support
Does this feel familiar?
Burnout can affect both how you feel physically and how you relate to work or other sustained demands. Over the last few weeks, tick what feels familiar. This is a personal reflection, not a test or a diagnosis.

What the programme is designed to support
Outcomes are not identical for every person. Reignite is designed to help you understand how burnout is affecting daily life, develop practices suited to your capacity, and recognise earlier when exhaustion or overload is beginning to build again.
Questions about yoga for burnout
Can yoga help with burnout?
Yoga practices involving movement, breathing, relaxation, and reflection are one option some people use alongside other forms of support during burnout recovery. It provides a structured eight-week setting in which to rebuild a realistic practice, notice what affects your energy and recovery, and adapt the work to your capacity.
Is Reignite an online yoga class for burnout?
Not in the usual drop-in sense. Reignite is an eight-week online yoga therapy programme for burnout recovery. It includes weekly small-group sessions, two individual consultations, home practice, starting and closing assessments, and review throughout the programme.
Do I need previous yoga experience?
No. The practices begin from your present capacity, and previous yoga experience or flexibility is not required. During burnout, less is often more, and the practice is kept realistic for low-energy days.
What yoga practices are used for burnout recovery?
The programme may draw from gentle movement, breathing, relaxation, attention, and reflection, with particular attention to the balance between effort and rest. The exact emphasis changes over the eight weeks and according to what participants are experiencing. There is no single practice that suits every person or every stage of recovery.
Can I join if I am on sick leave or seeing a doctor?
Yes. Reignite is designed to work alongside the medical or psychological care you receive, and alongside any occupational health or return-to-work support. Decisions about diagnosis, medication, sick leave, or clinical treatment remain with the relevant professional.
