Hey, mamas! This week, we talked about what’s the deal around guilt about self-care. Is it a luxury? Is it selfish? Is it important? We’ll start by defining self care, different self care practices and how to establish non-negotiable me time. Let’s dive into daily routines and the importance of involving family members and support systems in the process. We’ll also touch on  the inner critic and some strategies for overcoming guilt and negative self-talk. Let’s fill those cups! Guilt around self-care is deeply ingrained in new moms due to societal and personal expectations. Me-time can take various forms and should be defined based on individual needs and preferences. Setting boundaries and involving family members in supporting self-care can create a positive dynamic and understanding. Overcoming guilt and negative self-talk requires cognitive reframing and seeking support from others who normalize self-care. 00:03:00 Defining "me time" and its importance for mental health 00:05:00 Identifying non-negotiable self care practices 00:06:00 Incorporating self care into routines and structures 00:11:00 Overcoming the inner critic and negative self talk 00:15:00 Shifting the narrative of self care globally 00:17:00 Investing in personal growth and the impact on creativity Mamaprenuers, get your Giggles and Worth prompts here!
