š When Self-Care Isnāt Enough - Counselling Psychologist Dr Louise Hall
In this video, Louise Hall explores why traditional self-care practicesālike yoga, journaling, or taking a bathādonāt always relieve stress in the way we expect.
While these tools can be helpful, they often donāt address the bigger picture. Stress is not always an individual problem. External pressures such as work demands, financial strain, or lack of support systems cannot be solved through self-care alone.
Dr Hall also highlights how deeper emotional patternsālike feeling the need to ādo it allā or struggling to ask for helpācan keep us stuck. These experiences require more than routines; they call for self-compassion, reflection, and support from others.
At its core, we are wired for connection. Sometimes, the most powerful form of self-care is not doing more, but reaching out, sharing the load, and allowing ourselves to be supported.
