To rest, you don’t have to be physically away from work: a psychotherapist explained what to do

According to the National Well-Being Index (NSI), conducted by Eurovaistinė, achieving a state of good well-being remains a distant objective for many Lithuanian residents. The study reveals that only approximately one in five Lithuanians rate their current well-being as very good. Furthermore, the data indicates that half of the population currently maintains a middle-class standard of living, while three out of ten respondents admitted to experiencing negative feelings regarding their overall state.

The findings suggest that sustained well-being is influenced by factors extending beyond short-term respite, such as a weekend getaway or summer vacation. Experts participating in the study noted that daily routines are primary determinants of one’s mental and physical health. Key areas identified as crucial contributors include adequate sleep, physical health maintenance, managing fatigue, the quality of personal relationships, and achieving a sustainable balance between professional duties and rest.

The analysis emphasizes that internal tension does not necessarily dissipate following periods of temporary relaxation. Consequently, the report advises that efforts to improve one’s well-being must move beyond seeking only short-term fixes. Instead, a deeper understanding of the root causes contributing to suboptimal well-being is necessary.

Addressing these underlying systemic issues is presented as the crucial step toward making lasting and substantial improvements in the overall well-being of the population.
