What is self-care? In this episode, I explain what self-care is using Very Well Mind’s 5 categories of Self-care and give my top 10 self-care tips. Self-care gets a bad rep because it’s constantly tied to consumerism and indulgences. Many people view self-care as a luxury they and afford to ignore. While others see it as an excuse to do whatever makes them feel good in the moment. But neither of those is actual self-care. Self-care is about making sure that you take care of yourself mind, body, and soul. Tune in and learn the different categories of self-care and the tips to use to keep yourself sane.
