When loss rearranges your life, even basic care can feel complicated. Today, we explore how tending to your well-being is not a retreat from love, but a daily way to honor it. We walk through chapter four of Rise Again—Care For You—and share simple practices, honest mindsets, and supportive tools that help you rebuild balance without guilt.
We start with the essentials: small rituals that calm the nervous system and make space for emotion, like a quiet cup of tea, a short nap, breathwork, or a nature walk when the weather allows. From there, we look at why reaching out for counseling, coaching, or spiritual guidance is an act of courage that accelerates healing. You’ll hear how to combine professional support with everyday choices so you can maintain steadiness when grief surges, and life stays busy.
To move from ideas to action, we open the workbook and walk through reflection prompts that identify your soothing routines, rewrite guilt narratives, and set simple plans you can keep. We also share a few ways to weave remembrance into self-care—lighting a candle, speaking their name, revisiting a favorite passage—so memory and healing sit side by side. Finally, we preview next week’s focus on passion and SMART goals, showing how compassionate structure can guide your next steps.
If you’re ready to feel supported while you support yourself, this conversation is your starting place. Grab the book and workbook, follow along with the prompts, and share this episode with someone who needs a calm voice.
