Summary
In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I delve into the foundational concepts of anxiety self-care and how to get started on this essential journey toward mental well-being. Inspired by a lively discussion in our Facebook group, where members expressed feelings of overwhelm and posed the question, “Where do I begin?”, I realized the need to provide Clarity on this crucial topic. Understanding where to start with self-care can be challenging, especially when we often find ourselves focused on external responsibilities and the needs of others rather than tending to our own inner peace.
I emphasize the importance of self-care as a holistic approach that includes nurturing the mind, body, and spirit. Before we can effectively assist those around us—whether they are family, friends, or colleagues—we must first attend to our own needs. Drawing on the familiar analogy of putting on our own oxygen masks first in an airplane emergency, I highlight that we cannot effectively support others if we ourselves are in distress or depleted. The act of self-care is not selfish; rather, it is a vital step that empowers us to contribute positively to the lives of others without feeling overwhelmed or resentful.
Throughout the episode, I also address common misconceptions and guilt surrounding self-care practices. Many tend to prioritize external responsibilities over their own well-being, leading to exhaustion or anxiety. I urge listeners to reflect on their own lives and check in with themselves—assessing how they feel, what activities they engage in for self-care, and identifying any gaps in fulfilling their personal needs. This process can be aided by journaling and self-reflection, which can illuminate areas that may require more attention.
