A healthy personality is about balance and about understanding what the body needs.
If we do not give it, we will be like a pool from which flows out, but into which nothing flows.
One day this “pool” dries up, and emotional burnout can happen to a person, he can lose his foothold and become depressed, ”Petukhova explained.
The psychologist also noted that in the absence of rest, there is an increase in the level of anxiety, adaptive functions deteriorate, and problems with the gastrointestinal tract arise.
“People sometimes say that they are too lazy to do something, that they often get sick ... Few people think that these may be signals from the body that they need to rest.
When a person ignores rest, after a while he gets sick and does not understand, and all because the body makes you take a break, ”she concluded.
