A New Year of Surgo

Abstract

As we enter a new semester of university, this edition of Surgo is focussing on something a bit lighter. With a new year beginning and new stresses going around its important to take time for yourself to avoid burnout. That is why we wanted to focus on work-life balance.

As a medical student, with the pressures and expectations we feel, it is even more important to take time for ourselves in between those intense study periods, whether it is reading a book, or going for a walk, or playing your favourite sport it is essential to find time in your busy day to take your mind off university stresses and focus elsewhere in order to maximise your mental health.
