About
Kia ora and welcome. I’m Dr. Robyn Charlton, a psychiatrist, self-compassion meditation teacher, yin yoga teacher and founder of The MindFitness Dr. I created this SOAR Beyond Stress Mini Course for one simple reason: because I know what it’s like to care for others while your own nervous system is running on empty. Whether you’re a health professional, a carer, neurodiverse or someone navigating high stress and emotional load—this course is here to offer you science-backed, embodied micropractices that are both practical and deeply restorative. In this short video course, I’ll introduce you to the SOAR Self-Care Battery, a nervous system–informed tool I developed after years of working with burnout, trauma, ADHD, and the hidden costs of caring. Here’s what SOAR stands for: • S – STOP: Come to your senses and reset • O – OBSERVE: Notice your energy drains and inner patterns • A – ALLOW: Make space for emotions with compassion • R – RECHARGE: Restore your nervous system using the SAVOUR pillars of well-being SAVOUR is a practical recharge framework inspired by Lifestyle Medicine, Positive Neuroplasticity, and Te Whare Tapa Whā, a Māori model of well-being. Together, we’ll explore how to: • Identify and name what’s draining your energy • Use micropractices to interrupt the stress cycle • Build a habit of recharging your inner battery—one breath, one moment, one pillar at a time This isn’t just about managing stress. It’s about learning how to pause, reconnect, and recharge in a way that’s kind, sustainable, and deeply human. You’ll find: • Short teaching videos for each module • Guided meditations and micropractices • A daily battery check-in to help track your energy And remember: this isn’t about doing it perfectly. It’s about coming back It’s about coming back to yourself. So welcome. I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s begin. Trust your wings. You are built to SOAR.
