Summary

Does “self-care” equal “self-ish” to you? Often there is a negative connotation with the idea of focusing on yourself, especially when you have a child who is in crisis. Sadly, that is when self care is the most needed.When we are depleted, anxious or overwhelmed we are in no condition to help our kids. Believe it or not, the very first step in helping our kids with anxiety or OCD is to help ourselves. So how do you do that? Where do you start?I invited Dr. Orlena Kerek to the AT Parenting Survival Podcast to talk to us all about self care!

0:00.0	Welcome to AT Parenting Survival Podcast, where you get supporting guidance through the chaos of parenting.
0:07.0	Here's your host, Child Therapist Natasha Daniels.
0:11.0	Well, hello there, and welcome to another episode of the AT Parenting Survival
0:16.2	Podcast. Today we're going to get all into self-care, taking care of yourself
0:22.2	because that's really important. If you don't take care of yourself
0:27.1	there is no way you'll be able to take care of your child with anxiety or OCD.
0:33.4	That's just a fact.
0:34.8	And unfortunately, all too often,
0:37.2	we are very quick to put that at the end of our to-do list,
0:42.3	to say when I get more time, when things are not as stressful,
0:46.1	I'll focus on me. And I have learned recently in the past year that that's backwards that the more we pour into ourselves the
0:55.8	more we fill our cup up the more we reset and take care of ourselves the better
1:00.1	parents we are the better moms we are the better dads we are, the better moms we are, the better dads we are, the better partners
1:05.1	we are, like the more we show up in life when we take care of ourselves.
1:09.6	So there's a huge payback, there's a huge reward when we spend some time focusing on taking
1:17.2	care of ourselves and that can look different for each one of us and so I
1:21.8	wanted to bring on another guest who is going to talk about self-care.
1:26.0	So before I get into that though and introduce her, I want to give you some updates on what is going on in the AT parenting community world at AT parenting survival.
1:35.0	I just got back from a conference that if you follow me anywhere I talked about
1:41.0	kind of my big exposure, my big challenge for OCD Awareness Week and I was
1:48.0	going to a conference without knowing anybody and it went really well. So that was a very cool end to my hierarchy in my
1:58.4	social anxiety put myself out there and when I did that I took some risks I met some really awesome people.
