212 // How to Put Yourself First

Published: Jan. 23, 2020, 3:09 a.m.

Hello and welcome to episode 212 of The Mindful Kind podcast.\xa0

In this episode, I've answered a lovely listener's question about how to be less of a people-pleaser and start prioritising self-care.

Here are three reasons why it's important to prioritise self-care:

  • It can be important for maintaining good mental health\xa0
  • It can teach people around you to engage in self-care, too
  • It can boost your self-worth and self-esteem

And here are three tips for putting yourself first:

  • Clearly know what you want and need so you can communicate it\xa0
  • Offer to help when you're actually able
  • Be prepared for some resistance when you stop people-pleasing (at least at first!)

Thank you so much for listening and I hope you have a wonderful week, Mindful Kind.\xa0
