Creating a Self Care Plan

For some, the idea of self- care is getting a massage and then going back to your life as if Calgon™ took all the stress away in an hour. In actuality, self-care is a plan that allows us to think broadly of what we truly need consistently to feel nurtured and whole across many domains of our lives. Come and imagine what self-care looks like for you right now.
