Nurturing Yourself: The Vital Role of Self-Care in Recovery

If it's not at the top of your priority list, then you are risking all of those other priorities not being fulfilled or falling apart, because we don't have the capacity to just keep going, we do not have limitless energy, we do not have a limitless mental capacity and we have to stop occasionally to recharge these things.
Why is it that taking care of others often feels easier than looking after ourselves? In this episode of 'Mindful Recovery', therapist Robert Cox dives into the heart of self-care, especially for those grappling with trauma and addiction. Cox unpacks why self-care is essential yet often neglected, exploring the deep-seated fears and wounds that hold us back. Through mindfulness, he sheds light on how childhood experiences shape our adult habits and resistance to self-care.
This isn't just about pampering yourself; it's about recharging your mental and emotional batteries to face life's challenges head-on. Cox offers practical advice and even a free body scan meditation to help you start prioritizing your well-being. If you've ever struggled to put yourself first, this episode provides the tools and encouragement you need to make self-care a daily practice.
