Self Care is Sexy

Today we are going over the top 5 ways you can encourage others’ self-care without sounding preachy. And we’re talking about how helping others is really helping you on your self care journey.

Got a pile of laundry that's been sitting there for a few days? A sink load of dishes piling up? Well guess what? So does everyone else and it doesn't mean you're a failure. It’s time to tell the truth - "Spring Cleaning" and “tidying for joy” is just another form of performative toxic positivity trying to sell us more organizing and cleaning supplies and that is NOT self-care. Your self-worth should not be based on whether or not you vacuumed today. And for God sakes stop holding your snacks hostage until you have cleaned the living room.

Know someone facing a really hard time right now? Been up all night crying? How you offer help says a lot more about your own ability, or lack of self-care. The next time you catch yourself about to say "let me know if you need anything" — and you will, because we all will, I'm gonna say it this week, you're gonna say it this week —Pause. Just for a second. Ask yourself: what would I want? And if you don't know — that's not a failure. That's information. That's the assignment. That's where self care begins.

Nobody handed me a manual. No one told me that surviving wasn't the same as thriving — or that five minutes of actual rest could hit different than eight hours of anxious sleep.This episode is the cheat code I didn't have.We're ditching the bubble-bath version of self-care and getting into the real stuff — the tiny, unglamorous, borderline radical acts that actually move the needle.
