Do you invest the same amount of time into your mental health, as you do into your physical health or career?

I think I prioritise my mental health a bit more than my physical health - the latter in trying to improve. For many years I had a high cardio lifestyle but in recent years and lack of motivation also due to mental health issues, I'm not nearly as active as I'd like to be. The past few years I've also gained a bit of weight too which I'm also working on. Prevention is best so I try to alleviate as much triggers like stress for example, that can have a downward spiral on my mental health. I'm currently doing mindful meditation classes in the hope this might be beneficial. I definitely need to work more on my physical health and I'm very mindful of this.
