Author: Abbott Nutrition Health Institute May 15, 2023 Duration: 14:59

It seems like, everywhere you turn, a new study concludes that the importance of mental health is on par with physical health. We’re encouraged to find time for self-care, meditation, and reflection; but how many people find time to put themselves first when the needs of their kids, patients, or parents always seem to take priority? This episode contains a discussion of suicide, which may be triggering for some listeners. If you or someone you know, is struggling with thoughts of suicide, please seek help immediately by contacting a mental health professional or calling or texting 988, the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.
