Real Self-Care: "Our Brains Want to Self-Destruct"
Manage episode 504352803 series 3681315
When we hear “self-care,” it’s easy to picture spa days or beach vacations. But real self-care is far less glamorous — and far more powerful. It’s the daily practice of showing up for yourself in the small, often difficult ways: getting out of bed when you’d rather hit snooze, fueling your body with nourishing foods, moving with intention, and knowing when to step away from the noise.
In this week’s episode, we explore how true self-care lives in the balance of discipline and softness. We dive into the raw work of healing — processing emotions instead of avoiding them, practicing gratitude, detaching from unhelpful thoughts, and recognizing when our brains are holding us back in the name of protection. It’s gritty, it’s hard, and it’s often messy — but on the other side is a stronger, wiser, more aligned, and more joyful version of you.
