Self-Care has gone mainstream. We see it everywhere from magazines to podcasts and social media. Everyone says we need more of it. Therapists and life coaches claim that self-care will make life more enjoyable and less stressful. But what is self-care, really? How does it work? Who is it for? And how can anyone possibly fit it into an already jam packed schedule? In this podcast, clinical psychologist Dr. Robyn Gobin provides a fresh perspective on the definition of self-care, explores why it’s essential, how to make time for it, and how self-care benefits you and your loved ones. Tune in for your weekly dose of self-care where you’ll hear honest conversations and learn practical tips on taking better care of yourself--mind, body, and spirit.
