In this episode, I've chosen articles from the BASW's PSW Magazine which caught my interest.   I was particularly grateful for the information on the importance of self-care, this issue can be really difficult to achieve for us as Social Workers.  We often feel guilty for putting ourselves first, and our professional code of ethics makes very little reference to this necessity as with many of the other vocations.  We need to eat and rest well, breath deeply, take regular exercise and maintain good boundaries so as our mental well being remains intact.
