Abstract

The shift toward hybrid learning in the digital era has provided flexibility for students; however, it has also introduced various psychological challenges, particularly academic burnout. Burnout is characterized by emotional exhaustion, decreased motivation, and reduced engagement in the learning process. This study aims to explore a counseling approach based on Minangkabau cultural values in reducing student burnout in the hybrid learning era. This approach integrates local values such as adat basandi syarak, syarak basandi Kitabullah, deliberation (musyawarah), and collectivism as sources of individual resilience. The research employs a qualitative approach through literature review and conceptual analysis of cultural integration in counseling practices. The findings indicate that the internalization of Minangkabau cultural values within counseling processes can enhance coping abilities, strengthen self-identity, and reduce levels of student burnout. This approach is considered relevant and contextual in addressing students’ psychological challenges in the hybrid learning era. This study is expected to contribute to the development of culturally based counseling services that are more effective and sustainable.
