Practicing self-care

Practicing self care

Self-care is essential to your journey of healing and to working with us at the Brave Movement. The National Institute of Health examined various definitions and concluded that self-care is “the ability to care for oneself through awareness, self-control, and self-reliance in order to achieve, maintain, or promote optimal health and well-being.”

If we can’t take care of ourselves while doing this work and ultimately burn out or become exhausted, we aren’t doing the work right.

"It is vital for us to recognize what actions we’re taking when we’re at our best"
