JAKARTA - Health is not only about physical, but also about how to maintain the mind, energy, to financial conditions. In the midst of a fast-paced modern lifestyle, many people unknowingly sacrifice rest, mental health, and future planning. In fact, all of them are interconnected.
One of the basic things that is often overlooked is rest. In the Halalbihalal event entitled "Better Tomorrow Starts Today: Feel Good, Stay Healthy, Be Protected" held by Sequis Life, artist Donna Agnesia emphasized the importance of sleep and body recovery.
"The point is that we get up more, then we also rest, rest is also very important. I think maybe many people don't have time to sleep," said Donna, when met at Ramela Resto, South Jakarta on Tuesday, March 31, 2026.
"People say at least 6 hours. But if you can get more than 6 hours, it's better. Instead of scrolling through social media or watching TV, it's better to use the time to rest so that life is healthier," he continued.
This simple message is relevant to the current condition. Many people prefer to stay up late to watch digital entertainment, even though sleep quality greatly affects the body's resistance, concentration, and long-term health.
Apart from resting, Darius Sinathrya's wife reminded the importance of managing stress. Donna highlighted that mental health is now a big issue that should not be ignored.
"Stress management is also important, something that is often forgotten. In today's time, we often talk about mental health and that is very important," he said.
"Many diseases are not only caused by physical factors such as diet or pollution, but are also influenced by mental conditions. Moreover, a mother usually tends to be more easily worried, so maintaining mental health is no less important," he added.
Unmanaged stress can have an impact on various diseases, ranging from sleep disorders to chronic problems. Especially for parents, worrying about their families is often a burden in itself.
The mother of three shared her experience as a parent who still wants to ensure that her children are safe and healthy.
"That's why, if I seem a little fussy when my child wants to go far, I say 'first of all I'm sorry. I often ask you to always give me news, just say again where or have you arrived at your destination'," he said.
"As a parent, small things like that can make the heart calmer and not think. It feels really relieved to know, for example, that I know I'm at school or I've come home safely. So I also know that the child is okay," he continued.
This shows that mental health is also closely related to security and communication in the family. The 47-year-old woman emphasized that maintaining health cannot be separated from the overall resilience of the family.
"Empowering mothers and families to be able to carry out various aspects of life. Starting from maintaining family resilience, managing finances, to taking care of physical and mental health. In the end, all of these efforts are carried out to protect the most valuable things in life," he concluded.
The concept of "protecting the most important" is not only about physical health, but also about being prepared for life risks. This is where financial planning plays an important role.
In this context, the Faculty Head of Sequis Quality Empowerment (STAE) Sequis Life, Yan Ardhiano Handoyo explained that financial resilience is not only about the size of income, but how a person manages it wisely. After moments like Eid, financial pressure often increases due to large expenses.
According to him, the post-Eid period is the right time to do a financial reset. Starting from rearranging cash flow, controlling debt, to preparing emergency funds. He also emphasized the importance of financial protection as part of a comprehensive family health strategy.
"Life and health insurance are an important part of building family financial resilience. Insurance is not just a cost, but a protection instrument to minimize the financial impact of unexpected risks," added Yan.
Physical, mental, and financial health are one unit. Lack of sleep can lower productivity, stress can trigger disease, and financial problems can exacerbate mental stress.
