Episode 16: Self Care Shouldn’t Stress You Out
In today's episode we're tackling the topic of self care. Sure, we all need to take care of ourselves, but "self care" as a modern phenomenon can be more anxiety inducing than stress reducing? Am I doing it right? Often enough? At all? The topic becomes especially fraught for moms, who are also told that we should always put our children's needs in front of our own, a recipe for some serious parenting burnout. So how do you navigate self care as a parent? We believe it starts with self awareness, and we're talking about how, through trial and error, you can figure out what actually serves your needs — and little ways to teach your family that those needs are indeed important, too. Self care shouldn't stress you out, but you shouldn't ignore it either. We'll help you find that balance to better serve your own physical and mental health on today's episode. Listen now and share with the people in your life who also deserve a break (i.e. everyone).
