#8 Be Kind to Yourself (Self Care Part 1) & #9 Be Kind to Yourself (Self Care Part 2)
Summary
The Pod shares some life stuff, then tackles self care- answering two questions from our Patron, Jenny:
- “How do you manage self care with so many people around?”
- “How do you nurture your relationships with metamours, partners, friends, etc?”
In this two part release, they work through a Self Care Assessment , examining their physical, emotional/psychological, spiritual, and professional self care activities. Learn the differences between proactive self care and reactive coping; and explore mindfulness, meditation, and creativity with the Pod!
