Making Your Self-Care Non-Negotiable
Written by Kristi Yeh, LMFT
In celebration of Black History Month I’m featuring G. Michelle Goodloe’s self-care journals! In addition to being a self-care therapist and new mother, Goodloe has published three self-care books. This post and worksheet is based on her book, “The Self-Care Investment: Your Guide to Making Your Self-Care Non-Negotiable.” Goodloe was on The Mental Mile Podcast talking about this book on our Season 2 finale.
“Self-care is a practice, because showing up as your best self requires routine care, self-reflection and self-maintenance.”
This self-care worksheet will help you:
Identify why self-care is non-negotiable
Overcome obstacles to self-care, including guilt
Keep your self-care routine consistent
Grab your free self-care worksheet to help you make your self-care a higher priority in your life.
