In this special episode, join us for a heartfelt exploration of self-care as we celebrate another year of life and wisdom. As we grow older, we also grow wiser, and part of that wisdom comes from understanding the importance of self-care and the values that guide it.
We'll delve into the "8 Cs" of Internal Systems therapy, a framework first described by Dick Schwartz during the development of his unique approach to talk therapy. These "Cs" represent the core qualities of the Self, including compassion, calmness, clarity, curiosity, confidence, connectedness, creativity, and courage. Discover how embracing these qualities can transform your self-care journey.
In addition to the 8 Cs, we'll also explore the "5 Ps" of the self: patience, perspective, presence, playfulness, and persistence. These principles complement the Cs and help us navigate the complexities of self-care.
Join us for an episode that combines an annual reflection, personal growth, self-care, and the wisdom that comes with each passing year. Learn how integrating a set of personal values into your self-care routine can lead to a happier, healthier, journey and help you succeed in business and life! They can help you keep your day job...
Tune in and celebrate the journey of becoming "A Year Older, A Year Wiser" while gaining valuable insights into the world of self-care and the role of these qualities in this transformative process.
This podcast is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only. We are individuals sharing our personal experiences and insights related to self-care, personal growth, and the concepts we have read.
While we strive to provide accurate and well-researched information, please be aware that the content discussed here is based on our lived experiences and understanding. We have made every effort to credit the theories and frameworks we discuss to the best of our knowledge.
It's important to remember that self-care is a highly individualized journey, and what works for one person may not work for another. We encourage you to consult with a qualified healthcare or mental health professional for personalized advice and guidance on matters related to self-care and mental well-being.
Thank you for joining us on this journey, and we hope you find value in our discussions.
