Wheel of Life Balance for Doctors
Assess your personal wellbeing as a physician. Heal yourself to better heal others.
Introduction
Doctors dedicate their lives to patient care, often neglecting their own health. The irony is painful — the healer who does not heal themselves. The wheel makes this visible.

Patient outcomes, professional satisfaction, skills

Family, partner, friends beyond medicine
5. Finance
Income management, loan repayment, investments

Frequently Asked Questions
I am too busy to focus on balance.
That belief is exactly the problem. Even 15 minutes of self-care daily prevents the burnout that would take months to recover from.
How do I improve balance during residency?
Focus on the basics — sleep hygiene, one social connection per week, and brief daily exercise. Small habits compound.
