Self-Care is NOT Temporarily Turning Off Your Brain (Replay)
from Sober Powered: The Neuroscience of Being Sober · host Gillian Tietz, MS, CPRC
We think that turning off our brain with alcohol at the end of the day is “me time” and it’s the only way to get a break. This isn’t self-care, it’s called being depleted and trying to survive a life that drains you. Poor self-care is one of the most reliable predictors of relapse in people trying to get sober. It’s important and in this episode I’m explaining what self-care is and 5 simple ways you can begin to prioritize self-care in your life.
