For you to land on this page, I'm guessing you would like to see some form of change in your life. Managing the human condition is tricky! I believe that prioritizing self-care lends itself to a more balanced lifestyle and can prevent dis-ease and dis-order. Most people associate self-care merely with hygienic practices.

If you are ready to take a step in the direction of self-compassion, you've come to the right place.
