Do you ever get stuck not enjoying your self-care because you're too worried that it's an excuse to be indulgent? In this episode, we explore why you might be struggling with self-care and how you can care for yourself in guilt-free ways that feel fulfilling, comforting, and rewarding.
 Key Takeaways:

The Problem: not knowing whether something counts as self-care or how to take care of ourselves in ways that aren't indulgent.
The Solution: understanding the difference between self-care, self-comfort, and self-indulgence.

Self-Care: ways we care for ourselves that often involve proactive or productive habits and patterns.
Self-Comfort: a less-acknowledged form of self-love where we create space for heavier emotions and genuine relaxation.
Self-Indulgence: actions we take that puts a buffer between us and our emotions (e.g., social media, indulgent eating, mindless tasks, etc.)


The Application: three simple shifts that can help you create healthy habits.

Motives: check your motives. Are you buffering or are you loving?
Boundaries: make decisions ahead of time to stop worrying about how much or how long you're doing it.
Reflect: take a moment to reflect after self-care or self-comfort to learn what is working and what needs to shift.


The Invitation: honor what you're already doing well and take time to explore how you can improve your self-care and self-comfort habits without slipping into self-indulgence.
