Based in part, on the author’s recent publication, “Ultimate Self-Care, A Holistic Guide for Strength and Balance In Changing Times”, the on-line courses, “Essential Self-Care, Part One and Part Two” are both meant for anyone, in any walk of life, who is interested in strengthening their self-care practices and quality of life – especially those who work in direct service industries, or who provide direct care to others at home and/or who are in the people-helping areas.

Essential Self-Care Part One contains initial, vital key concepts that lay a strong foundation for your self-care. Essential Self-Care Part Two will enrich your self-care practices with more in-depth concepts. Both of these courses will encourage your awareness of why mindful self-care is absolutely essential for your mental, physical, emotional and spiritual health – especially now, while we manage increased stresses, that we are experiencing in this unprecedented transformative time of societal socio-political changes, as well as Earth’s dramatic shifts, that are now even more devastating to human and animal life.

In addition to an array of easy-to-use tools, exercises, articles, tip sheets and reference links, the author offers a compassionate, in-depth approach throughout, in addressing many of our work and homelife challenges.

Essential Self-Care, Part One and Essential Self-Care, Part Two: Some of the essential self-care areas include: barriers to our ability to practice self-care, recognizing and managing anxiety, stress and anger; creating healthy boundaries, ensuring an adequate support system, utilizing the power of gratitude, staying grounded and centered, clearing and raising your energy; as well as, how self-care is connected to Earth’s care; emergency preparedness, how to change unhealthy habits and successfully maintain your self-care strategies – and much more!
