Taif University Specialist Outlines Holistic Mental Health Practices in Ramadan

In a special report from Taif University, mental health specialist Abdulkarim Al-Dakhil highlights Ramadan as a prime opportunity to enhance psychological balance and emotional regulation, noting that consistent worship and spiritual reflection can significantly reduce stress and anxiety while fostering a sense of contentment.

 Al-Dakhil recommends a holistic approach to the holy month, including structured time management, balanced nutrition, and healthy sleep patterns to support stable mood and concentration. Furthermore, he emphasizes that strengthening social bonds through family gatherings and volunteer work is essential for reducing isolation.

 To achieve true peace of mind, Al-Dakhil advises a "digital detox" from smart devices, regular light exercise such as walking, and daily Quranic recitation as foundational practices for lasting inner stability.
