116: Superficial Self-Care

from Full-Time Black Woman · host Aleese Real & Esha Belle

Send us Fan MailSelf-Care has been moving up in priority since the beginning of 2020. Sometimes you will see it depicted as luxurious spa visits, shopping sprees, or lavish vacations. Practices that appeared slightly materialistic to get you to buy the latest expensive thing And to some, it was a practice reserved only for the white and wealthy. To reach a wider audience, media began to focus on the simple things you could do from home: bubble baths, painting your nails, and facial masks. And while all of these things from lavish to basic can have an impact on your mood and well-being, there’s a deeper level of self-care that exists. Self-Care is an intentional act done for the purpose of supporting and promoting one’s physical, mental, or emotional health and well-being. It can take many forms, but overall self-care is necessary in order for us to manage stress, protect our energy and live our best lives as our best selves. So today we want to go deeper than the superficial versions of self-care and offer some additional options that can have a longer effect and stronger impact on your well-being.And before we go on, we want to be clear…we’re not saying the other things aren’t self-care. We just want to start a discussion about the less glamorous, often less appealing self-care that no one typically wants to do, but everyone needs.MERCH IS HERE!!
