Self Care breaks the myth that self care is a wine party, Netflix binge, or pedicure social. Self care is what’s needed for your well-being and should always leave you with more energy and feelings of revitalization. Often, the activities that are described as self-care leave you more depleted and with less energy. This talk will break the myth and discuss the 4 components of self care that will support your overall wellness;
-nourishing foods,
-stillness & movement,
-time in nature, and
-self expression.

I
I stopped using caffeine in the 70’s. I saved a fortune on sleeping pills!!
I really enjoyed this video and it’s great but she forgot that our environment includes proteins based food . Little fruit indeed and some vegetables.
But not fruits all year around at massive quantity as all of it transform as sugar in your metabolism. Your diet does not need whole plant based food .
Although yes connecting with nature and moving and being active physically is essential.
Good talk simple and direct health advise .
I love this. Thank you 😊
✨ Thanks 💖🙌🏼💖 Bunches✨
I needed to hear this more than ever
Brilliant talk!!
This is a video that must be shown on broadcast television and taught to everyone especially children, so they can cope healthy not turn to addictions and escapism. Blessings 💜🙏🌎
Truelly
Brilliant thank you 🙏
"My son is SO unique-" describes average behavior of children…
By the grace of God truth rises and we humbly stand together to freedom for love by doing and being helpful in the world that is ea…
Fantastic advice. It is good to be reminded that it is a practice, just try to show up. Thank you Susannah!
Yay for earthing, totally agree with that, but the smug "start with the 5 hours a day most people are watching tv" ENRAGES ME. Talk about toxic. I know she said most, not all, but how about acknowledging those of us who work too hard and spend too much time parenting and keeping the house running to watch TV. We're the ones that really need the tips on self care.
This was a great presentation people don't understand if you don't take care of yourself and you cannot take care of anyone else so that 30 minutes a day is worth it
2:20 what self care is …
Love this! will be sharing it with my friends!
"Its about showing up for yourself"
Love yourself
Self care…is like when your young child is drowning… and you stop to check your hair and still worried about your weight…
This is awesome and simple and doable – thank you for posting
Hola teresiano
This has been one of my favorite Ted Talks!! She’s spot on!
you had me till you said caffeine…lol
Taking time to look after yourself in times of stress and anxiety, which is also important to do and anyone should be allowed to do it if they feel they need to.
She is so right about how just being outside makes you happy and helps with self care. Covid-19 and quarantining has definitely given everyone a new appreciation for the outdoors.
Very incourging and the truthful outside is one that's so true i have proven to be true thanks
Go for a walk!
Go for a walk!
God do I struggle
But I shall find
The way
Eat whole plant-based food. Meditation. Moving. Outdoors. Every day!
💙
Thank you for this TED Talk Susannah. I really appreciate it because I agree that the concept of 'self care' has got warped into some kind of 'package'. You've reminded me that true self care really is free – it doesn't need to cost anything at all. We don't require special equipment or the most expensive things in order to practice it every single day. All it takes is committing a little time and focus. I'm about to become a parent for the first time, and despite being incredibly excited about the challenge ahead, I know that self care will be even more important now.
yeah but I don't think you are right Am only doing this to save life's believe it or not am cure from HSV type 2 with the instructions and the product I get from dr Abolohome
NOTHING NEW HERE. Same as every other self-help guru that says controlling one's thoughts is the answer to everything. bleh.
This is so so accurate!
Great advice for self care! I think self care is a lot more simple than most people think. Because of social media, a lot of people think they have to spend a lot of money or indulge in over the top activities to practice self care, but that definitely isn't the case!
“Your hand gets sweaty…”
Me in my head: knees arms are heavy, mom's spaghetti
Thank you for this 🥰
ahem… knees week, arms are heavy
Ted Talk: Talks about earthing
Me allergic to grass: 🤕
I somewhat disagree with her, self care is doing whatever makes "self" feel relaxed, revitalized, refreshed, rejuvenated and relieved from stress and if that's a spa day it is what it is.
"Self care is eliberately taking care of your well being through restorative activities."
Daily self-care is so important! Thank you for this video 💛
Most of us aren't the average person so….
I must starting to do things
Really we are lost a lot of time in bad experience
when ( 7:37 ) did i ask about your child.. neverrrrrr
I couldn't find any self care videos by men. I guess I should record one.
Sometimes women out themselves last and they themselves should be a priority.
Thanks for sharing this most incredible info… it is so important for people. Making plans for self care personally, for the family and work – so important.
