Self-Care Essentials Mini-Course: Three Days of Self-Compassion

Practice sustainable self-care, honor your needs, and reclaim joy and well-being.
 

Making sure our own needs are met is as important as taking care of those we love most. Self-care is the practice of taking an active role in protecting our own well-being, pursuing happiness, and having the ability, tools, and resources to respond to periods of stress so that they don’t result in imbalance and lead to a health crisis.


Why You Need a Self-Care Plan
We’re all being called to tap into deeper wells of courage and resilience, making self-care critical, not optional. So what do we do when turning attention toward ourselves feels challenging?

At Mindful, we don’t have all the answers, but there are a few things we know for sure: 

• We can connect with what’s true
• We can check in with how we’re holding difficult emotions
• We can practice self-care
  
  

All of this combined allows us to cultivate compassion and resilience, so when an opportunity to show up and act arises, we can meet the moment with skill.
