Am I Taking Time for Emotional Self-Care?

emotional self-care, Newsletter, Self-Care
emotional self-care

I define self-care as the art of attuning and responding to your needs (and desires) moment to moment. Self-care is not about adding something to your to-do list, it’s about cultivating a new way of being with yourself and nourishing yourself physically, mentally, spiritually … and emotionally.

Everyone I meet is experiencing some type of COVID hangover. For many this is showing up as depression, anxiety, loneliness or feeling lost. This week I’m asking, “Am I taking time for emotional self-care?” and exploring how I can make my emotional well-being a priority.

Here are the three ways I’m doing this (3-minute video):
