Healthcare providers (HCPs) play an essential role in our society by helping people maintain their health and treating them when they are sick or injured. However, despite their critical role, many healthcare providers do not engage in self-care, which can lead to burnout and negative impacts on their physical and mental health.
One of the reasons why healthcare providers do not engage in self-care is the demanding nature of their work. Many healthcare providers work long hours, often with minimal breaks, and deal with high levels of stress due to the nature of their work. This can make it difficult for them to find time to take care of themselves and engage in activities that promote their own well-being. This contributes to eating habits that do not nourish their bodies or minds. Weight gain is common, even if HCPs are not actually eating much.
The body can go into survival mode and hold on to every pound for dear life.
Additionally, healthcare providers often prioritize the needs of their patients above their own needs, which can lead to neglect of their own health. This may result in healthcare providers feeling overwhelmed and fatigued, leading to decreased effectiveness in their work or at home.
It is essential for healthcare providers to engage in self-care to ensure they can provide quality care to their patients. Self-care can include engaging in physical activities, eating a balanced diet, making time to savor their meals, trying out new culinary delights, getting enough rest, and taking time to relax and unwind.
