Burnout is a word we hear a lot in healthcare, and many of us have experienced it firsthand. The demands of our jobs often leave little room for self-expression, joy, or personal fulfillment. But what if I told you that one of the best ways to combat burnout is by finding something that sets your soul on fire—a passion project that reignites your energy and creativity?

Today, we’re diving into a topic that has sparked quite a bit of controversy: ultra-short sleep, specifically the approach promoted by Daisuke Hori. Hori, a Japanese man who claims to thrive on just one hour of sleep per night, has attracted attention—and skepticism—for his unconventional lifestyle.
He even teaches others to drastically cut down their sleep, challenging the widely accepted idea that most adults need at least seven to nine hours of sleep a night for optimal health. -
Today, we’re talking about sleep—something we all know is important, but often sacrifice in the face of busy schedules, long shifts, and the demands of medical practice.
Yet, sleep is not a luxury; it’s a fundamental component of our health, impacting everything from cognitive function and mood to our immune system and overall well-being. In fact, sleep should be our number one priority when it comes to self-care, because without it, all other aspects of our health can quickly unravel. -
Today, we’re exploring the power of gratitude and how a simple, two-minute practice can instantly boost your mood, even on the toughest days. As healthcare professionals, we face a unique set of challenges—long hours, emotional stress, and constant pressure.
It’s easy to get caught up in the negatives and overlook the small moments of joy and appreciation that can make a big difference in our overall well-being. -
Today, we’re exploring the concept of food as medicine and how we can maintain healthy eating habits during hectic shifts. As healthcare professionals, we know the importance of nutrition, but the reality of long hours, unpredictable schedules, and limited breaks often makes it challenging to practice what we preach. However, eating well doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming, even on the busiest days.
-
Today, we’re diving into the concept of self-care, but we’re going beyond the typical imagery of bubble baths, spa days, and indulgent treats.
While those can be nice, self-care is so much more than an occasional escape or a luxury reserved for rare moments of downtime. True self-care is about creating sustainable habits that support your well-being every single day. -
Today, we’re tackling a topic that many of us in medicine know all too well: perfectionism. In a field where precision can mean the difference between life and death, it’s easy to see how striving for perfection can become a default mindset.
But while perfectionism can drive excellence, it also has a dark side that can lead to burnout, anxiety, and a relentless cycle of never feeling “good enough.” -
Today, we’re breaking the silence on a hidden epidemic in healthcare: physician fatigue. Fatigue among physicians is often underreported, underrecognized, and certainly under-addressed. Yet, it’s one of the most significant threats to our health, our performance, and ultimately, our patients' safety.
We all know that medicine is demanding. Long hours, night shifts, the emotional toll of patient care, and the relentless pressure to stay at the top of our game can wear anyone down. But what happens when this becomes the norm?
-
Today, we’re talking about the power of pausing. In the fast-paced world of medicine, where every minute is accounted for and multitasking feels like a survival skill, the idea of taking a moment to pause might seem counterintuitive.
But what if I told you that just five minutes of stillness could significantly change the trajectory of your day? - Visa fler
