After a quick chat about current COVID state of affairs (and Star Wars day), we talk about "languishing" - a new term but one that we think fits really well and that we will hear more often. Then we dive into a few ideas we have on how we can help ourselves and our patients address feelings of languishing. Hopefully these are useful for you as well.
