Every day, surgeons dedicate their skills, focus, and compassion to transforming lives. Yet even the most resilient among us require moments to pause, reflect, and recharge.

On this World Mental Health Day, October 10, 2025, we are shining a light on the importance of personal wellbeing, which is not merely a luxury; it is a vital cornerstone of professional necessity.

To support this philosophy, we developed the ISAPS L.I.F.T. Program to help surgeons thrive both personally and professionally. We encourage you to explore some modules designed to enhance and sustain mental health. 

Explore Module 3 of the LIFT Program: Personal Wellbeing
Designed specifically for surgeons, it offers practical strategies to help you:

- Manage stress and avoid burnout
- Build emotional resilience in high-pressure environments
- Find balance and meaning in your work and life

Because when you look after your own wellbeing, you strengthen your ability to care for others.
