Summary
Do you think it costs money to have excellent self-care? I have many clients who do think that, and so did I. But here's the truth: Self-care is not an indulgence, it's a discipline. I think sometimes it's easier to spend money, than to discipline ourselves in the moment of wanting instant gratification. Instant gratification …

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Thinner Piece and Menopause and Beyond. |
| 0:05.4 | This is Dr. Deb Butler, Master Life and Weight Coach, and as always, your coach. |
| 0:11.4 | Today is episode number 226, and I am providing you with an encore presentation of a podcast |
| 0:19.2 | that I did last year that I think is so appropriate for now. |
| 0:23.2 | It's all about self-care. Stay tuned. Hi, everybody. How are you today? It's a beautiful day in |
| 0:31.2 | the beginning of summer. And I don't know about you, but we've had a lot of rain. You might |
| 0:36.1 | have heard about all the rain in the Midwest. And I'll |
| 0:38.8 | tell you what. The thing for me about all of this rain is I know that it's a problem, but it's also a |
| 0:45.5 | personal problem for me. And I'm going to tell you why. All my hiking trails are flooded. I love to |
| 0:52.9 | walk. I even love to walk in the rain, but I don't like to walk in floods. |
| 0:57.6 | And they are flooded. They're closed. Lots of these hiking trails are closed. So that does not make me |
| 1:05.1 | happy. And knowing that the rain is probably a bigger problem than any of us want to talk about. I'm not going to get |
| 1:12.3 | into that right now because that's not what this podcast is about. But it is about self-care. |
| 1:17.9 | That's what I want to talk to you about today, which is why I was talking to you about my walking |
| 1:22.4 | trails because one of the things that I like to do most days is to make sure that I get a beautiful walk in the |
| 1:28.4 | woods and nature, kind of have like a bath forest, like a forest bath. I think I've heard that |
| 1:35.2 | said before. It's like almost taking a bath in the woods. And that's how it feels to me when I'm |
| 1:39.1 | walking. It's like I can relax. I can relax my mind. I can think. I can be creative. And I think it's so important for all of us. |
| 1:48.7 | And for me, this is part of probably one of the most important self-care acts that I do for myself. |
| 1:54.7 | But here's what I want to talk to you about today. What do you think self-care even is? One of my really beloved clients who's been with me |
| 2:04.9 | for a long time, Jeanette, recently sent me an article from Forbes.com by a woman named Tammy Foreman, |
| 2:13.8 | and she wrote the most beautiful article. I loved it so much and it's pretty short that I want to read |
