Do you think it costs money to have excellent self-care? I have many clients who do think that, and so did I. But here’s the truth: Self-care is not an indulgence, it’s a discipline.

Sometimes I feel so much doubt in myself. Simply because I tell myself I’m not doing something right or I should be doing it better. Or, a favorite, “I’ve never done it right and I never will!” I sound so logical, and I’m so smart that I actually believe these thoughts. But then I catch […]
