039: There's a Better Way to Self-Care

<p>What if we got the idea of self care wrong? </p> <p>What is self care isn't about spa days, and buying candles and cozy robes and a glass of wine? What if self care was supposed to be about time, and contentment, and asking for help, and being paid a fair and living wage? </p> <p>What if self care wasn't supposed to be something that was whitewashed and purchased?</p> <p>What if it was a fundamental change in how we support our needs? </p> <p>Today, on the podcast, I'm diving into what self care SHOULD mean, and how we can support ourselves in times of higher output. </p> <p>-------------------------------</p> <p>Todays episode is sponsored by the Nova Scotia Government. Today I'm asking you, as part of our team of 971,000, to work to slow the spread of COVID-19. Online self-assessments are available <a href= "https://covid-self-assessment.novascotia.ca/en">HERE</a> (and are SO easy to fill out and book a time for testing!) and anyone living in HRM between the ages of 18-35 can volunteer to have a COVID test completed to help slow the spread in our province. As my 6 year old says, teamwork makes the dream work. Let's do this. </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>The Goods:<br /></strong><a href= "https://www.ashleymargeson.com/podcast">Full Shownotes</a><br /> <a href= "https://cornerstonenaturopathic.janeapp.com/locations/cornerstone-naturopathic-inc/book#/list"> Get On The Clinic Waitlist </a><br /> <a href= "https://mailchi.mp/ashleymargeson/superwomancode">Subscribe to The Superwoman Code Email List</a><br /> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/drashleymargeson" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Follow @drashleymargeson on Instagram</a></p> <p><strong>Special Thanks To<br /></strong>Production: Ben Connolly<br /> Supported by Cornerstone Naturopathic Inc</p>
