“Recovery is not for people who need it, it’s for people who want it." Recovery is a personal journey where individuals with psychiatric disabilities work toward adapting to their condition and making positive changes in their lives. It's about improving overall well-being and finding a sense of connection with the community. Mental health professionals play a crucial role in this process by understanding each person’s unique story and helping them access the right resources and support. Some simple yet impactful approaches to recovery include avoiding high-risk situations, being honest with yourself, and reaching out for support, whether it’s from government initiatives, non-profit organisations like Vandrevala Foundation or AASRA, crisis helplines, or trusted networks like family, friends, or psychologists. With the right support, setting small, achievable goals, developing self-care routines like healthy eating and exercise, and doing things that bring joy can make all the difference in the journey to a healthier, more fulfilling life. #RecoveryJourney #MentalHealthSupport #WellBeing #SelfCare #MentalHealthAwareness #SupportMatters #Therapy #CommunitySupport #HealthyLiving #Mindfulness #MentalHealthRecovery #OvercomingChallenges #HopeAndHealing #Resilience #PersonalGrowth

Taking planned breaks improves an individual’s creativity, productivity in comparison to individuals that don’t take any breaks. A popular example of a study technique includes the Pomodoro technique which includes working for 25 minutes and taking a break for 5 minutes. This technique involves an individual taking planned 5 minute breaks every 25 minutes. It is important for workplaces to allow their employees to take breaks throughout the day. Along with this workplaces should provide a place for employees to rest during their break.
