درباره این اپیزود
In this bitesize moment pulled from the Laura Dowling Experience back catalogue, Siobhan Murray, psychotherapist and burnout strategist explains why she has banned the phrase self care, and shares the small daily habits, walks, box breathing and a mindfulness trick called the purple alien, that she uses instead to avoid burnout.
What if self care isn't a retreat or a spa day at all, but something you can do in the two minutes it takes to boil the kettle?
🔑Key Points
• Siobhan bans the phrase self care and replaces it with care of self, something practised daily, not as an occasional treat
• A one-off pilates class, a retreat or getting your nails done is maintenance, not care of self
• She does four ten-minute walks every day without fail, even in the rain, simply to change her physical state
• She practises box breathing, in for four, hold for four, out for four, hold for four, while making a cup of tea
