About the event
Presented by Samuel Odhiambo, Certified NVC Trainer and Crystal Talley, NVC Certification candidate
The dictionary defines self-care as a practice of taking actions to preserve or improve one’s own health. The process of taking an active role in protecting one’s own well-being and happiness in particular during periods of stress. This implies mostly reacting when one’s emotional balance is uncertain. It is like firefighting, reacting later.
Our intention in this session includes:
o Harvesting our collective understanding of self-care, and the various practices embraced, the community perceptions on the same and how they impact us; acknowledging individual wisdom on the same. I do acknowledge there is no strategy or tool which is 100% effective address all of ones worries and concerns which lead to stressful situations,
o Practicing various self – care tools for balance and ease
o Building support systems for emotional wellness
