from Take A Breath · host Polly Warren
You know the phrases… “You can’t pour from an empty cup.” “Put your oxygen mask on first.”But here’s the real question…Are you actually doing it?Or are you still giving your time, energy, and attention to everyone else… and hoping you’ll get a moment for yourself somewhere down the line?In this episode, I’m sharing a very honest reflection, one that’s come from being forced to slow down after surgery, and what it’s helped me realise about what I thought was self-care… versus what actually supports your nervous system.✨ In this episode, I also explore: Why knowing you should prioritise yourself isn’t the same as actually doing it The hidden ways you might be “pushing” under the guise of self-care What your nervous system really needs to feel calm and supported Why one-off self-care (like holidays or occasional treats) isn’t enough The power of small, consistent moments to reset and reconnect A simple 3-step approach to start showing up for yourself dailyTo claim your FREE month's membership for The Inner Space (offer ends at end of May 2026) email INNER SPACE to [email protected] Download 15 Breaths to Calm Anxiety - a FREE 5 minute audio to calm you down in real time.Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.Download my energising 5 Minute Morning Practice to get your day started in the best way possible.To find out more about my membership The Inner Space go to: https://www.pollywarren.com/theinnerspaceEmail me at: [email protected]://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/
