Abstract

There aren’t many people who would disagree that caring for ourselves is crucial, particularly when working in an emotionally and physically challenging profession. However, there is an assumption that we all know how to do this. Self-care isn’t lighting candles, going shopping or having a spa day – these might be part of your routine but it’s much more than this. Practising self-care is a skill and, without this being taught, it sets us up to fail when we find it difficult to put in place. It begins with the relationship we have with ourselves. Like any relationship, this will have its ups, downs and complexities. Connecting with ourselves requires holding a part of us that is vulnerable while acknowledging and believing we are “deserving” of being cared for.
