We often imagine healing to be a magical, linear process. However, true healing holistically combines the wellness of the mind, heart, and body, and that can take a lot of hard work. Understanding how the three are intertwined may be difficult, but the link between body and mind has actually been scientifically proven by studies around the world.

The PAAH cites international programs that have revealed how physical activity guidelines can reduce onset, incidence, and severity of depression, while also mitigating stress and anxiety.

Running on Empty

Burnout can creep in quietly, showing up as lost motivation, fatigue, or disconnection from the work we once loved. Recognizing the signs—like procrastination, emotional exhaustion, or dreading the day—is key. Self-care isn't selfish; it’s essential. Whether it’s through therapy, movement, mindfulness, or mental health days, creating space to rest and reset helps reconnect us to our purpose. Tools like the HALT method (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) can bring awareness and support timely self-intervention. Ultimately, honoring your needs allows you to sustain your passion, protect your energy, and live with more presence, joy, and compassion—for yourself and others.
