Well, well, well

As a health educator with degrees in Health Promotion and Public Health, I see the term "self care" get thrown around a lot. This pleases my warm little hear to no end! Unlike mental health diagnoses that require clinic evaluation and often medical attention, the term self care is fluid. In fact, those of us in the industry cannot agree on one particular model. There are models with five, seven and even nine wellness spheres.

What all health educators agree on is that in order to keep all of the spheres spinning you need balance or homeostasis. Currently, this modern life has served us all enough darkness, anger and reasons to be bitter. I encourage you to pursue the lovely, pure, and wonderful ...nope I want to change that to wonder FULL things life has to offer. Be sure to stock your day with belly laughs, enticing scents (when was the last time leaned in and filled your nostrils with the aroma of fresh fruit?) and groovy music. Why? Well, because I need you to because you are very important to me.
