Real Self-Care for Moms
Does self-care mean ice cream? Facial serums? Leaning in? Saying no? Taking yoga? According to our listeners, it means all of the above.\nIn this episode, we talk both about how to arrive at your personal definition of self-care, and how to prioritize it, so your self-care practice will be there for you when you need it. You can't just meditate extra on the day your kids both get the stomach flu. Self-care is a program you kind of need to have running in the background all the time.\nHere are links to research and other writing on the topic that we discuss in this episode:\nJacqueline Baker for The Mighty: When Self-Care Means Saying 'No'\nTim Herrera for NYT Smarter Living: How to Make \u2018Self-Care\u2019 Actually Feel Like Self-Care\nJenny Odell: How To Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy\nDeanna Zandt: The Unspoken Complexity of 'Self-Care'\nClaire Zulkey for Romper: The Hardest Thing To Do Is 'Less' Of All That\nLearn more about your ad choices.
