Summary
Hey lady! These times call for intentional self-care but lady, do you know what self-care really is? By now you know that self-care is more than just sheet masks and massages. What if we tell you that it’s more than even therapy and meditation? This week, Dr. Dom and Terri dive deep into the seven dimensions of wellness to help themselves (and you) create a plan to help you not only sustain but thrive.
Grab your Cultivating H.E.R. Space journal, brew some tea or warm up some bone broth, and allow Terri and Dr. Dom guide you through your wellness plan with questions that interrogate your deepest self so that you can drill down to what makes you authentically you.
Lady, self-exploration and self-examination are worthwhile endeavors that can you help you align with your purpose. When you prioritize the mindsets and activities that help you feel your best, you get to embody wellness and shine your light as brightly as possible.
