📩 Contact us: [email protected] In this episode, Dr. Paul Zalzal and Dr. Brad Weening sit down with psychiatrist Dr. Barakat to explore the four key pillars of good mental health and how they work together to keep your mind strong. Mental health isn’t just about emotions. It’s about caring for your physical, emotional, cognitive, and social well-being as a whole. When one pillar weakens, the others often follow but with the right habits, balance is possible. You’ll learn: - Physical Health: How exercise, sleep, and nutrition support your brain and mood - Emotional Health: How to manage stress and express feelings in healthy ways - Cognitive Health: Why your thoughts, mindset, and perspective shape your reality - Social Health: The importance of relationships, connection, and community Dr. Barakat shares science-backed, practical ways to strengthen each of these four areas, so you can build resilience and maintain better mental health in your everyday life. 🎧 Listen on Your Favourite Platforms: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3OFxEjictC41CCS1z2AVKe Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/talking-with-docs/id1799242189 YouTube Music: • TWD Podcast 👕 Shop Our MERCH: https://www.spreadshirt.ca/shop/user/talking+with+docs/ ❤️ Support Oakville Hospital: https://donate.oakvillehospitalfoundation.com 📱 Follow Us: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@talkingwithdocs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkingwithdocs/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063617375848 🛑 DISCLAIMER: This content is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
