Top Ten Reasons Why Women Won't Take Care of Themselves with Kylie Patchett
What you would do if you walked into a room and a baby is shrieking with distress alone in its crib.
Your VERY NATURAL response is going to be:
- Pick the baby up and snuggle it close
- Use your voice to soothe and calm
- Cuddle / rock / sway / change movements to settle
- Respond to actual physical needs - hunger, thirst, nappy change
- If it’s in an environment which cool be uncomfy (too loud, hot, cold, exposed) move to somewhere new
- Take baby to their mum/dad/familiar caretaker
What you WOULD NOT do is:
- Ask that baby to earn your care
- Tell the baby to get over itself
- Ask the baby to look after you instead
- Get angry or upset that the baby needed care
Why then do we do this to ourselves?
We withhold love + acceptance + self care for so many reasons.
Feeling into SOOTHE self care immersion and the convos I am having with women who are on the cusp of investing in their own self care, and there are themes in the surface objections why this is not available / possible / ok to do, so I recorded a solo ep on just that.
Here’s the Top Ten reasons Why Women Won’t Take Care of themselves:
- Numbing
- Conditioning
- Identity
- Leaky Boundaries
- No reference point
- Poor self worth
- Feeling Selfish
- Have to Earn it
- No bandwidth
- Thinking feels safer
All very real, all very “sensible” objections.
But what if I told you the very way to unravel old hurts
to let go of stuff that ins’t you anymore
to ride the waves of this discombobulating peri rollercoaster with more ease
to take care of your own needs as readily as you would that baby was to
Have the courage to turn inwards.
To connect to your heart.
To gently ask your soul “how can I honour your right now?”.
And have the tools, the support, the community to be able to respond.
Gently.
Mindfully.
Respectfully?
