1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,040 Speaker 1: Coming up on You Need Therapy. The opposite of home 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: isn't distance, but it's forgetfulness. And I believe that self 3 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: care is this really regular practice of nurturing and kind 4 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: of cultivating the truest version of ourselves. I started to 5 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:25,120 Speaker 1: realize that not being an expert isn't a liability, it's 6 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: a real gift. If we don't know something about ourselves 7 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: at this point in our life, it's probably because it's 8 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:35,160 Speaker 1: uncomfortable to know. If you can die before you die, 9 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: then you can really live. There's a wisdom at death's door. 10 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: I thought I was insane. Yeah, and I didn't know 11 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: what to do because there was no Internet. I don't know, man, 12 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, I feel like everything is hard. Hey, y'all, 13 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: my name is Kat.

And my third little announcement is extra extra 102 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: exciting because it involves my guest for this week, and 103 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: I am about to be joined by a returning guest 104 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: and another fellow therapist, Katie Gustafson, and if you remember, 105 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: she was the one that came on and first talked 106 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: about the Instagram with us. I think the episode the 107 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: first time we aired it was called the one about 108 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: the inniogram, and she is back to talk to us 109 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: about the angiogram and how it can have a positive 110 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: influence on identifying the self care practices that are right 111 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: for each of us individually, and self care doesn't have 112 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: to be just getting a massage or going for a walk. 113 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: Me and Tera actually talked about self care last year 114 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: and one of our episodes. And what Katie does in 115 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: this episode, which is so powerful. I can't even tell 116 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 1: you how many light bulbs and how many things I 117 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: continue to think about after our conversation. But what Katie 118 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: teaches us in this episode is that self care is 119 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: less about escaping and indulging and more about restoring us 120 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: back to who we truly are. And again you will 121 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,239 Speaker 1: hear me having these light bulb moments. I ramble about 122 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: things and I'm like, oh my gosh, it's making me 123 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: think of this and this. She's just so knowledgeable about 124 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: the Instagram. She's so knowledgeable about self care and what 125 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: it really is and what it's really intended for and 126 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: I just I'm excited for you to start to have 127 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: some of those light bulb moments as well as you 128 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: listen to the episode.

I would say you're an 175 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: expert in the angiogram. I would tread lightly with that word. 176 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: I up. It's like, I feel like the more I know, 177 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: the less I know, and I just honor the system 178 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: so much that maybe in comparison to you know, just 179 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: the next guy walking down the street, I'm an expert, 180 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: but I don't know. That word scares me. Keat. I 181 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: like that you said that the more I know, the 182 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: less I know, because I recently have been just doing 183 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: my own thinking about self awareness and what is it 184 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: and how do you know if you have it? Because 185 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: everybody wants to have it and nobody wants to act 186 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: like they don't have it, but a lot of times 187 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: the people are talking about it, I'm like, you don't 188 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:55,239 Speaker 1: seem very self aware. And I came across a conversation 189 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 1: I had with somebody maybe two years ago and she said, 190 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: the interesting thing about self awareness is is that the 191 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: more self where you are, the more where you are 192 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: of how much you don't know about the world, about yourself, 193 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: about others. So I think that's a really place to 194 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: be of to say, like, yeah, I know a lot, 195 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: but also there's a lot of things that I haven't 196 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 1: learned yet. But you're an expert to me because you 197 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: know more than I do. So Lack you were here. 198 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: We just did like an overview of the indiogram, and 199 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: it was was that what it was? I feel like 200 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: it was. Was it before the pandemic? Oh my gosh, 201 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: I think it was. So that means it was a 202 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: lifetime ago. Yeah, okay, so we were We've been reborn. 203 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: So we did a whole over you. But what I 204 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: want to do to start this is for anybody who 205 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: is unfamiliar with what the inniogram is, I want to 206 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 1: give like a little baseline information about what the innogram is, 207 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: why people can become so obsessed with it, how it 208 00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 1: has turned into such a useful tool in the therapy rooms, 209 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: but also just anybody and they have to be a 210 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: therapist to be able to get something out of this, 211 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: and kind of just where this whole thing came from. 212 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 1: So can you give us, I say, cliffs notes, but 213 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 1: make it as long as you want. Background of what 214 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: is the Instagram? Why do we like it? Well? Man, 215 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 1: this is probably the topic of conversation that I most 216 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: love to have. Somebody asking the other day do you 217 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: already get sick of talking about the Instagram? And I 218 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: was like, no, I think I just get sick of talking. 219 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, I love talking about this because a it's 220 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: been so transformational in my own life. And I say 221 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: that in all just honesty and transparency, and because it's 222 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: been so helpful to use in the therapy office with clients, 223 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: and I've I've just seen change happen using this tool, 224 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 1: and and so many insights and all the things. So so, 225 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: the indiogram is basically this really dynamic personality and character 226 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: typing system that suggests that there are nine core personality 227 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: types in the world, one of which we gravitated to 228 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: in early childhood. And I used the word character in 229 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: there along with personality very intentionally, because the angiogram doesn't 230 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: just identify your kind of surface personality traits kind of 231 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,719 Speaker 1: the optic of our personality. It really goes so so 232 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: much deeper. Two kind of unearth our character, like the 233 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: deeper structure of who we are and why we do 234 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: the things that we do, and what motivates us in 235 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: thought and emotion and in behavior. So it gives us 236 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: this really comprehensive picture of kind of who we are 237 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: and what we like and how we act, but it 238 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 1: goes so much deeper to help us understand why we 239 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: are that way. Not only that, but it gives us 240 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: really specific growth paths to move from kind of where 241 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,199 Speaker 1: we feel stuck in our personality and where we really 242 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: want to be. So where kind of where we've been, 243 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: where we are now, and where we want to go. 244 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: The angiogram gives us some really clear practical application as 245 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: to how to effect change in our lives. Well, that's 246 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: I think really important, that last part, because the critique 247 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: I hear most when it comes to having conversations with 248 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: anybody about the Instagram. If somebody feels kind of off 249 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,599 Speaker 1: put by that, it's usually because they say something like 250 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to be put in a box. I 251 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: don't want you to just label me as something, and 252 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: I don't want some tests to tell me what I am, 253 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: and and all of that and what you just said 254 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: speaks to I think the most helpful response that I've 255 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: come to with that is I totally hear that. I 256 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: don't want to be put in a box either, and 257 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: I don't want to be told from a thing that 258 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: doesn't actually know me and speak to me what I 259 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: can I cannot do. But what I have known Instagram 260 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: to really explain is what you just said. It shows 261 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: you kind of some of who you are and how 262 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: you got there where you're stuck, and a lot of 263 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: the purpose of it is to get you out of 264 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: whatever box you are locked in. So the point isn't 265 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: to stick you in a box. It's to say, like, hey, 266 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: you might be in this box, and there's some ways 267 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: for you to get out of it. So well said, 268 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 1: I think I don't know who said it first. I 269 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: know Ian Cron has said it before, and he may 270 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: originated it. But there's this quote that says that angiogram 271 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: helps us know who we were before the world told 272 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: us who we were supposed to become or be. And 273 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: I really love that because, as you just said so eloquently, 274 00:14:55,440 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: the angiogram really helps us understand the loud kind of 275 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: edges of our personality, not to live more into those qualities, 276 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 1: but to live beyond them. So in essence, it's showing 277 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: us the box that we're in of personality, the story 278 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: we've been living out of, as it were, and it's 279 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: and it's really inviting us beyond that, beyond the box. Okay, 280 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: I love that quote. I'm gonna have to write that 281 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: down because that reminds me of everything when it comes 282 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: to therapy and the work we do. And I don't 283 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: know if I said this last time and we talked, 284 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: but I am so interested I want to do I've 285 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: been saying this for five years. Probably I want to 286 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:41,239 Speaker 1: do some study of like attachment styles and the antiagram. 287 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: Maybe there is one out there. I would love to 288 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: not have to do the study and actually just read 289 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: about it. But I say that because that's where the 290 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: reasons I really really liked the Instagram as opposed to 291 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: these other just personality tests I learned about in school. 292 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: We didn't learn about the Instagram and school, which I 293 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: feel if we should have, But anyway, I liked it 294 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: because I was like, oh, this is just aligned with 295 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: what we learned about attachment and attachment theory, where you 296 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: literally have these experiences that kind of send you these messages. 297 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: You learn how to get your needs meant through that. 298 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: That develops into your attachment style and it helps you 299 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: survive to a certain point. But then sometimes it gets 300 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: you stuck. And that's what the intagram is. Also, it's 301 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: just to me, the intagram is a different, more personalized 302 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: version of that. Yeah, I see nowadays as as attachment 303 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: theory and all of that has become popularized and people 304 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: know about it than when two years ago people would 305 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: be like, kin, what is that? People are getting very 306 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: attached to their style. So it's why I'm anxious, I'm avoiding, 307 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: I'm this, I'm that. I'm just kind of how people 308 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: are like I'm seven, I'm a six, I'm a four. 309 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: And the point of any of that stuff attachment and 310 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: the any ram numbers. I'm not teaching somebody about attachment. 311 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 1: So then they're like, well, I'm anxious and I'm always 312 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: going to be anxious. It's like, oh, look, this is 313 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: you that you're following this pattern, and if we trace 314 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: it back to these things, we can unlearn these things 315 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: and actually uncover who you really are versus who you 316 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: train yourself to be to get your needs met when 317 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: there's no other way. Totally. Yes, I have done some 318 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: study on attachment and the attachment styles and the Instagram, 319 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 1: so we'll have to Maybe we'll have another conversation on 320 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: that and I can share my notes with you. I 321 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 1: think you're so onto something. And you know, it's the 322 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: difference between theory and application, right, It's like it's the 323 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: difference between knowledge and transformation, because knowledge without application, it's 324 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: really not transformational. It doesn't affect change. You know, there's 325 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: a lot of people describe the Instagram as a roadmap, 326 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 1: and I think that really it checks out because it 327 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: kind of helps us understand like it's like a trailhead 328 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: like where did we get on this trail of personality 329 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: type for or personality type seven? And how were we 330 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 1: conditioned in our adaptive child to learn how to survive? Right, 331 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 1: and then unpacking our story, but really using this roadmap 332 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: to live beyond the limiting beliefs of that story. So 333 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: going beyond theory really into application of this powerful tool 334 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: that really exists to help us put into practices things 335 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: that help us be our true authentic self. Okay, I 336 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: can't wait to have that conversation because I'm just thinking 337 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: about things in my head. I'm applying this to my 338 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: own life, but I'm thinking about like, oh my gosh. 339 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 1: For me to move out of a very anxiously attached place, 340 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: I had to stop doing things that I literally thought 341 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,360 Speaker 1: were who I. Like it was how I was surviving, 342 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: but I thought it was who I was when it 343 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: comes to being a seven. And for those of you 344 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: who are like, what is that mean, it's one of 345 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: the types. And for a lot of people, we're very 346 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 1: loud and and we can be kind of center of 347 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: attention even if we don't want to be. But that's 348 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: where I found a lot of security. And I had 349 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: to keep performing. And there's performance in all of these numbers. 350 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: But for me to actually allow myself to find a 351 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: secure attachments, I had to stop kind of filling up 352 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: space with being funny or being available all the time 353 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: being the friend that everybody wants to be around. I 354 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 1: had to kind of like relax and not do so 355 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 1: many fun things that would give it an oppression of me. 356 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: And that's how I learned that I can be okay, 357 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: like in a secure, like healthy relationship is Oh, I 358 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: don't have to do all this stuff. I don't do 359 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: all this stuff. So that's the whole conversation for another day. 360 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: So there's a little overview of Instagram, what it is, 361 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,719 Speaker 1: why it's useful, why I love it so much. I 362 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: want to switch gears because we're also talking about something 363 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 1: else today, and I also want to call you an 364 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: expert in this too, but you probably still want me 365 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: to do that. We're going to talk about self care, 366 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: and a couple of months ago, Tara Booker and I 367 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: broach the subject in the series we were doing talking 368 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: about how pop culture kind of confuses some of these 369 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: some of them very clinical, but some of these things 370 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: mental health wise, into something that they're not. And I 371 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: want to hear from you. I do really find it 372 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: very interesting you to hear different humans, whether their mental 373 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 1: health professionals or not, Like, what is your idea of 374 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 1: what self care is? And how did you come up 375 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: with that idea? So I want to hear from you. 376 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 1: What do you see self care as, what's it's supposed 377 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: to be, what's its purpose? And why why do we 378 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: care about it? What do you see self care as, 379 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 1: what's it's supposed to be, what's its purpose? And why 380 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: why do we care about it? Well, you make such 381 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: a good point that there's so many different styles of 382 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: teaching in different kind of belief systems, And you know, 383 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: I think it's grabbing hold of what really works for you, 384 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: you know, who resonates with you. Because I think there's 385 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: so many great approaches to self care, I think there's 386 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: also so many really limited ideas of self care. A 387 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: few words I just want to toss around before we 388 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: really dig into the meat of it. But some words 389 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: that may surprise you kind of bubble up for me 390 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: when I think of self care. Probably the first is remembrance, homecoming, 391 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: self compassion, integration. So I really believe that self care 392 00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: is more about remembering the truest connecting you and remembering 393 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 1: and coming back to the truest version of ourselves. Then 394 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: it is about indulgence, and I want to unpack that 395 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: a little bit and and ps, I'm offering builgence. Yeah, 396 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: we're not here to to dig on that. But there's 397 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: there's this other great quote that says the opposite of 398 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: home isn't distance, but it's forgetfulness. And I believe that 399 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 1: self care is this really regular practice of nurturing and 400 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: kind of cultivating the truest version of ourselves. And that's 401 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: really broad and I'm gonna go I'm gonna I'm gonna 402 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: go in with it. In a broad sense, it's coming 403 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: home to the truth of who we are, which is 404 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: where the angiogram really comes into this practice of self care. 405 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: And I believe that it's really anything that we practice 406 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: on a regular basis that reminds us of, that aligns 407 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: with and that really promotes this truest version of ourselves, 408 00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 1: this homecoming, if you will, or this integration and want 409 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: to talk about kind of those words for just a minute, 410 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: but integration is a big word and an angiogram speak 411 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: and a therapy speak, and to me, it really is 412 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: becoming a whole, dynamic self, the self that we were 413 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 1: created to be. And you know, I think self care 414 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: really becomes creating the space within ourselves and within our 415 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: experience to show up in our lives and our relationships 416 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: with real meaning and purpose and vitality and wakefulness. If 417 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: we go just one step deeper, you know, I kind 418 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: of want to rebrand self care as self compassion essentially, 419 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: because I really think that it's also this process of 420 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: befriending ourselves and treating ourselves with kindness like we would 421 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: a dear friend or loved one. So I believe that 422 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 1: when we create and commit to self care in our lives, 423 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: it's really just this beautiful process of becoming really close 424 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: friends with ourselves and in that way understanding ourselves and 425 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: understanding our needs and how to meet those needs. I 426 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 1: think culture has created this monster of self care that's 427 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: a lot about kind of escapism and again indulgence and pampering, 428 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,479 Speaker 1: and I'm all for those things, but I think the 429 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: difference for me is that self care is it's got 430 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: to be restorative, right, It's got to be connective. And 431 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: I think that's kind of the litmus test of is 432 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: this true self care for me right now or not? 433 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 1: If I'm like getting all these facials and massages and 434 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: hanging out, having wine nights with the girls and spats 435 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: and all these I mean, like all very fun yet 436 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: very expensive. And also, you know, maybe that self care 437 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 1: for you in the in the season that you're in, 438 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: or maybe it's just a distraction. Yeah, And so it 439 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: also becomes the question of like, am I running towards 440 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: myself or am I running away from myself? Oh my god, Okay, 441 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: I just threw so much I have I even wrote 442 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,479 Speaker 1: some notes down because I'm like, oh my gosh, this 443 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: this this so. I first of all, I'm obsessed with 444 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: the idea of rebranding self care self compassion. And I 445 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: think that we can see this if we study language. 446 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 1: Language continues to change because as we continue to use language, 447 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: the meanings kind of get convoluted, and self care is 448 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: something that I think the meanings have gotten a little twisted, 449 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 1: and it does make so much sense. Like I love 450 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: that quote. Will you say the quote about what do 451 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: you say home and the opposite of whatever that was? 452 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: We say it again? Yeah, it's Ellie. We sol why 453 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 1: so I can't remember how you say it, but she 454 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: says the opposite of home isn't distance, but forgetfulness. Okay, 455 00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: I'm obsessed with that. That's so good. It's Oh that 456 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 1: is why I feel like self care is so It's 457 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: one of the reasons why it's so hard I think 458 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: for some people to do is because the things that 459 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 1: are promoted of self care really might not be or 460 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: have anything to do with somebody actually getting closer to themselves. Yeah. 461 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: When you said that at first, the picture I had 462 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: is I've recently been doing like a little art project 463 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: like elementary school. But I've been like looking forward it 464 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: to it so much and I can get lost into 465 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: doing it for hours and it's nothing special. And to 466 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:36,919 Speaker 1: some people that might be like, oh, that looks like 467 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 1: so much work and like I would hate doing that, 468 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: but I'm like, I feel so relaxed. I feel like 469 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: kind of like a kid. I feel like I don't 470 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: have to worry about anything. I am not judging the 471 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: work I'm doing. I'm like, oh, this is funny, this 472 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: is cute, this is whatever, and it it feels it 473 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: feels very restorative. It feels like I'm integrating like different 474 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: parts of myself together as I do that, Like the 475 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: part that is uh, I'm doing like a little grap 476 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: book thing and something I did when I was really 477 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: like in like middle school and stuff I used to 478 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: do like these collages and stuff, and I was like, 479 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: I want to do something like that again. So I 480 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: think I'm integrating these old parts of myself. I'm integrating 481 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: my relationships and um, these memories that I'm putting together, 482 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: and that sounds so exciting to me. I'm all for 483 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: getting massages sometimes that actually feels like work to me 484 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: right now, like actually being there and getting the massage 485 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 1: and in the middle it's great, but like having to 486 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 1: schedule it and going to the point man waiting, and 487 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: then like I don't like to go to places by 488 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: myself all the time. And then so I think that 489 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: is like some people might not identify with that stuff. 490 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: It's because that's not what self care is. And the 491 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: other thing I thought of I used to explain and 492 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: I still think it can do this integrating kind of 493 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,679 Speaker 1: what you're teaching me. But I used to explain that 494 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 1: there's a difference between self care and self maintenance, where 495 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: a lot of people thing if there are universal self 496 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: care activities, but they all come down to like pampering 497 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: kind of things or even like why night with a girls. 498 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: Sometimes that is for somebody who is less social, that's 499 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: work for them. But there are things that we have 500 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: to do to maintain our health in our bodies, health 501 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: and our minds, health in our friendships, health in any relationships, 502 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 1: and those things some of them that come to mind, 503 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: like getting my nails done or going to get my 504 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: hair cut, or going to like a I don't have 505 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 1: one of these currently, but if I had like a 506 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: monthly get together with my group of friends, like if 507 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: we had some book club or something like that, those 508 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: can be really good. And also, like things like drinking 509 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: a green juice, those are not bad. None of those 510 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: things are bad. And some people love those things and 511 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: some people don't mind them, but that doesn't like fill 512 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: them up. It's kind of like a check mark. And 513 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: so there are things we have to do to maintain 514 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: how we want to show up appearance wise. I have 515 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: to get my nails done so I don't rip them 516 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: all off. I do like what they look like, but 517 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: that's one of the reasons I do that. And like, 518 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: if I'm going to drink a green juice, I would 519 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: never choose that because I just love drinking green juice. 520 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: But I might be like, oh, I haven't had a 521 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: vegetable in three days. I need to do that. And 522 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 1: that is a way of caring for yourself, I think, 523 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: but it bleeds into this maintenance phase. For me. More 524 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: self care is something kind of like what you're talking about, 525 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 1: where it's actually bringing me back to the core of 526 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: who I am, not how I want to appear to others. 527 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: If I didn't have to worry about nutrients, I want 528 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: to never be tricky to green joices, so like that 529 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: to me is that self care. Does that cut make 530 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: sense when I'm saying no, I love that that delineation 531 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: between maintenance and self care and bring in the language 532 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: piece that you mentioned earlier is so important as well. 533 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: At in different cultures, this means drastically different things, right, 534 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: And that's why I think we have to really just 535 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: understand kind of the high level, like hit the high notes, 536 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: and then personalize it and make it true for us. 537 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: But I do think what you and I are talking 538 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: about that's really important is the difference between kind of 539 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: escapism indulging and true restorative self care. Right. And this 540 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: idea of the maintenance is almost like sometimes that kind 541 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: of falls maybe in the middle, I don't know, but 542 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: it's that kind of way of taking care of ourselves 543 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 1: and our health and you know, doing the things day 544 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: to day that just feel good and and and I 545 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: think that self care maybe the difference that I would 546 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: kind of draw out is that self care might be 547 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:58,719 Speaker 1: on a deeper, more kind of internal self relational space, 548 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: and then kind of the maintenance kind of is like 549 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: a byproduct of that, right, And it's not bad, it's 550 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: just a little different totally, you know. I think something too. 551 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: That a good question, and I think this is where 552 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: the angiogram really ties into true self care, because we 553 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: have to really know and understand ourselves in order to 554 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: love ourselves well and know what we need. And I 555 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: think knowing what we need is really four pronged. It's physical, 556 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:37,479 Speaker 1: it's emotional, it's spiritual, and it's relational. And so really, 557 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: when we kind of create our version of what is 558 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: restorative and really helpful self care for me, it might 559 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: look different and different seasons based on what I'm needing physically, emotionally, spiritually, relationally. 560 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: So I think I think that we can really flesh 561 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: it out and create um simple yet really powerful self 562 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: care practices that hit all four. Yeah, okay, so can 563 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 1: you walk us through how getting to know your Instagram 564 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 1: type and how learning about that can influence you being 565 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: able to identify like you kind of would get to 566 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: know yourself a little bit more through that, so then 567 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: you can actually identify that what you need part like 568 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: how that can help and how that looks different for 569 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: different people. Absolutely, and this is also what we're going 570 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: to be digging into quite a bit in this little 571 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: workshop that we're about to start talking about. So if 572 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: this sounds kind of out of reach or not as clear. 573 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: We're going to dig into this and just a little 574 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: bit um in our conversation, but just for starters, let's 575 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: just take you and I for example, Like you are 576 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: anagram type seven. You've kind of fleshed out a little 577 00:32:55,960 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: bit of what that means. Hyper relational, extroverted, more kind 578 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: of assertive in nature, innovative. You bring the juice and 579 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: the energy, very magnetic personality, highly creative, fast thinking. You 580 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: kind of operate from this more cognitive or headspace. Your 581 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: need in life is kind of the motivating need is 582 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: to avoid pain most of the time, to get out 583 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: ahead of it. For me, as a type four, I 584 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: am more reserved in nature, more introverted in nature. I 585 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 1: tend to be a little bit more withdrawn energetically, and 586 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: I really love kind of going deep. I'm not turned 587 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 1: off by scary emotions like melancholy or even sometimes depression. 588 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,479 Speaker 1: Like I can sit in there and and kind of 589 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: like move around in that a little bit. Whereas the 590 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: type seven, well, I'll say, in like more of an 591 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: unintegrated type seven is they're wanting to get way out 592 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: ahead of that pain. Um so to avoid it and 593 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: so like for me, this driving kind of motivating need 594 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:12,239 Speaker 1: in my life is to find significance and self expression 595 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 1: and to be seen as special and unique. And so 596 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: I want to unpack both of those types because there's 597 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: different energies going on there, there's different needs, there's different 598 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: motivators happening. For you, that's to be kind of up 599 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 1: and out, and for me it's kind of like to 600 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: be in and down. So part of my self care 601 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: is gonna look a little bit different for me, to 602 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: to kind of grow beyond some of the limiting parts 603 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 1: of my personality that can get in the way self 604 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: care can integrate. The work of integrating and coming home 605 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: to the truth of who I am can look much 606 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: different than what that looks like for you as a 607 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 1: Type seven. So here's maybe an example. Maybe for you, 608 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: some self care might look like what you just explained, 609 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: doing something on your own right, coming into yourself and 610 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: going within and and spending time doing something creative. Right 611 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 1: For me, like something that's really arounding out, if you will, 612 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: and integrating practice for me is to kind of like 613 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: be done with the navel gazing already and kind of 614 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: get outside of myself and maybe connect with a friend 615 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: for a walk, right, that becomes really nourishing to me. 616 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 1: And of course I love the alone time in the solitude, 617 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: and I can meditate myself into a dizzy. But for me, 618 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 1: self care might look much different as a type four 619 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: than self care might look for you as a type 620 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:50,399 Speaker 1: seven in this avenue, because you got me thinking oftentimes 621 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: self care, we just have these like blanket self care 622 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: things are like that's for everybody, And one of them 623 00:35:55,760 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: that comes to my mind is spending time with friends. Yeah. Uh, 624 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: where you're saying, as a for something that might be 625 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 1: self care might be to go on a walk with 626 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: a friend, not go to a huge party, but go 627 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 1: on a walk with a friend. Would it be true 628 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 1: that oftentimes that would be the opposite of what I 629 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,280 Speaker 1: would need because I spend so much of my time 630 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,840 Speaker 1: being in that space, and I can be so exhausted 631 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 1: by even though a part of me enjoys it, absolutely, 632 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 1: But enjoying something doesn't then equal self care exactly. You know. 633 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: I think what self care is also trying to do 634 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: is get us out of our autopilot. Right, So auto 635 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: pilot for you, like this habitual just kind of kind 636 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 1: of autopilot is being around people that is so much 637 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: a part of your personality type structure, and it's a 638 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 1: beautiful thing about you, and it's not all there is 639 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: to you. So part of integrating, the integrating part of 640 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 1: self care for you as a seven might be, you know, 641 00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 1: exploring more solitude it in downtime and connecting to the 642 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: beauty of all different kinds of emotions and doing that 643 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,879 Speaker 1: in creative ways that are again restorative for you. We're 644 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,879 Speaker 1: not wanting to like put you in a torture chamber, right, 645 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: but I'm thinking now I have to admit something because 646 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 1: I love puzzles like I love them. I love puzzles 647 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 1: like I love them. I haven't done one since Christmas. 648 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: I ended a couple during Christmas, but I am so 649 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 1: obsessed with them, and at times I would have to 650 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 1: argue with myself if there's something to do with friends 651 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:42,839 Speaker 1: that I'm like working on a puzz, I'm like, oh, 652 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: I just want to stay home into my puzzle. And 653 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: I think a little subconsciously I have been demonizing that 654 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 1: part of me and kind of like self deprecating that 655 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 1: part like l O L, like I'm a grandma, just 656 00:37:58,200 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: or saying, like, what's wrong with me? Like why do 657 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 1: I go to stay home and do this versus like 658 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,280 Speaker 1: go hang all these people or call my friend or whatever. 659 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: But I love I love it like I love it. 660 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 1: And so what I'm saying all this because something has 661 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 1: been different, like that is different than what I am 662 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: used to doing. The autopilot thing shot this up in 663 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: my brain, Like my autopilot is you want to feel better, 664 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 1: go hang out with a friend, or you should hang 665 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: out with people. Being social is better. Isolating is not good, 666 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: Like you are a people person. That's my autopilot. But 667 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: autopilot is not always the correct way to fly. Yes, yes, 668 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: And so even hearing you say that to me, it's like, oh, 669 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: I need to give myself permission to listen to myself. 670 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: There's so many things that I want to just praise 671 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 1: you for in that because honestly, cat like for you 672 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: as a seven, integration for a seven often looks like 673 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: the higher aspects of type five personality and vibes are 674 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 1: really comfortable with the lone time with downtime. So that's 675 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: such a natural progression for type sevens as they really 676 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: do the work of the angiogram and do the work 677 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 1: of self care. Is they allow themselves that space to 678 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: practice solitude and to stay home and to miss out 679 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: quote unquote, you know, it goes from like that phone 680 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: mode to the joemo right, It's like there's all the 681 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 1: sudden this joy and missing out. And I will say this, 682 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: it took me, I think, learning about the Instagram to 683 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: really identify this because I think I try to push 684 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: it away so much. Being a therapist and being a 685 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: seven is very challenging for me personally. I think that's 686 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 1: maybe where someone my savior complex came in. When I started, 687 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 1: all I wanted to do is make people feel better. 688 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 1: Like if I don't want to sit with people in 689 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 1: their feelings, I wanted to what are you feeling? Okay, 690 00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: you don't want to feel that, Okay, we're gonna get 691 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 1: out of it. That's how we're gonna do it. And 692 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: then as I learned, oh, that's not really a very 693 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 1: helpful way to be a therapist, I started, you know, 694 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 1: sitting with emotion and being really present with people and 695 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 1: getting in in the middle of all of the sorrow 696 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,399 Speaker 1: the fear of the sadness versus running away from it. 697 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,799 Speaker 1: And while that has I think been very helpful for 698 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: clients and has been very helpful to develop myself as 699 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 1: a therapist. It has made work. Although I love it 700 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: and I find a lot of joy in it, it 701 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 1: is hard in a different way than like, I mean, 702 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: everybody's job can be hard in its own way. I 703 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 1: went to UM site visit at a treatment center maybe 704 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: like five years ago. I was talking to these different 705 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: therapists at lunch and kind of talking about kind of 706 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,799 Speaker 1: our schedules and how we do things, and one of 707 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 1: these therapists said, oh, I see eight clients a day. 708 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 1: And I literally shopped my fork and it was like, 709 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: what like every day, five days a week for eight 710 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: clients to And I felt at first this rush of 711 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 1: like shame, I think, because I was like, my sweet 712 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: spot is like four or five. And while they might 713 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 1: make more money than me, I'm like, I'm a good 714 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 1: therapist when I'm seeing four or five clients a day. 715 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:23,720 Speaker 1: I can go to six, But anything over that, I 716 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: know I'm not giving good care to eat, even the 717 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 1: first client or the last one, because the first one 718 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, this is gonna be such a long day, 719 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: and the last one I'm like this had been has 720 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 1: been such a long day. But then when I get home, 721 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: I am just spent, like completely spent. I don't find 722 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 1: joy in that. It makes me question my job. That's 723 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 1: when I have those moments where I'm like, should I 724 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: be just working at like the post office or something? 725 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: And it's not because I'm a bad therapist. It's not 726 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: because therapist should all be seen eight clients a day. 727 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 1: What I learned is, oh, this feels different to you 728 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 1: than other people. So you're pushing through different things that 729 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 1: other people might just want to sit in all day long. 730 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: And that is not a bad thing. That does not 731 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,880 Speaker 1: make you being a therapist the wrong job, but it does. 732 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 1: I think kind of what I'm hearing now, it um 733 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: influences what you're needing after a work day. Where some 734 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 1: people might love to go to happy hours and meet 735 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: up with their friends after a work day. I sometimes 736 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: make plans and most of the time want to cancel 737 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: those plans if they're during the week, because all I 738 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: want to do is go home and do my puzzle 739 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 1: or watch a TV show and zone out. Or I 740 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,280 Speaker 1: hate talking on the phone with people. If anybody listening 741 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 1: to who's my friend? You know, if you're calling me, 742 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: you better text me and tell me why you're calling. 743 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: Me because I'm not just going to answer the thunder chat. 744 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 1: It's that feels after work so exhausting. And I used 745 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,720 Speaker 1: to think it was just about my line of work. 746 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: But when I when I heard that other therapists feel like, well, no, 747 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 1: I can see eight clients a day and I love 748 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 1: it and I could do it every day, I'm like, oh, 749 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 1: it's not my line of work. It also has to 750 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 1: do with who I am as a human being versus 751 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 1: you are a different person than me. Yeah, and it 752 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 1: also might have to do with different stages in life too. Yeah. 753 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: That is so. I used to see so many clients 754 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: and I won't see I do, won't see more than 755 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 1: four day. Yeah. No, it's like m X and I 756 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: can sit all day in those dark emotions and be 757 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 1: happy as a clum, but I can't serve a client 758 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,359 Speaker 1: in the way that I want to if I'm doing 759 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,799 Speaker 1: it all day every day. Yeah. So I Yeah, I 760 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 1: love this conversation because what I'm getting a lot about 761 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 1: out of it, and I'm sure I'm going to have 762 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 1: all these things pop up in my head as I 763 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 1: go throughout my day, but I'm getting out of this 764 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 1: is oh my gosh, let what you've learned about who 765 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 1: you have kind of trained yourself to be, and how 766 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 1: you've unlearned some of those things that aren't necessary anymore. 767 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 1: Let that actually impact what choices you make. Because I 768 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 1: think it's exactly what you said earlier about application and knowledge. Right, 769 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 1: I've learned all these things. I feel like I feel 770 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 1: like one of my clients right now. I've learned all 771 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 1: these things, but like I have to use that as 772 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:13,360 Speaker 1: I make decisions throughout my life as what's the point, 773 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: right and so, rather than oh, this is good, because 774 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 1: I wonder how you do this as a My mind 775 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 1: is all over the potas right now, but I wonder 776 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,239 Speaker 1: how you do this as a therapist because a lot 777 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 1: of clients will say, I might recommend you it sounds 778 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,319 Speaker 1: like you need to some self care, like we need 779 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:34,280 Speaker 1: to slow down a second, Like you have a homework assignment. 780 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 1: They'll say, okay, what should I do? How do you 781 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 1: help a client figure that out for themselves versus you 782 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:45,879 Speaker 1: just listing one of those general activities. Yeah, I mean, 783 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: I think there are some baseline practices that we can 784 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: all benefit from in self care, and two of those 785 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: right off the bat that every single type I mean 786 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: it's it's part of myself care practice every day, depending 787 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,360 Speaker 1: on kind of how much time and hunt, but moving 788 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 1: your body and writing journaling. It's getting into your body, 789 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, because you know this doing so much work 790 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 1: as a therapist and and just being so brilliant and 791 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 1: research and and and just such a learner that you know, 792 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: trauma lives in the body, our emotions live in the body, 793 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 1: and part of our primal right as human beings is 794 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: to move. Yeah. Well, I like that. It's not about vanity, 795 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,879 Speaker 1: it's not about staying at a certain weight. It's about 796 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 1: a primal right that we have as human beings to 797 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 1: move our body because we're created the way we are 798 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: and we have to process all that we go through 799 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 1: from day today. That is such a good I want 800 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 1: to pause on that for a second. Way to say 801 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,800 Speaker 1: that we have a primal right to move our body, 802 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 1: like you are created to do this and you are 803 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: allowed to do it, versus you should do this right? 804 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 1: That feels very kind. Does it also feels very inviting? Yeah? 805 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,800 Speaker 1: I mean, and that can look different ways. At the 806 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 1: self Care workshop, we talk a lot about mindful movement. 807 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,240 Speaker 1: Coola is going to talk and teach us all about 808 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 1: trauma in the body and how it's stored, and what 809 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 1: mindful movement is. Something that I also think can be 810 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 1: very unhelpful is mindless exercise, right, so super high impact. 811 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: I'm all for high impact. I mean, I don't really 812 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: do it a lot, but like, if you want to 813 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:40,239 Speaker 1: go run ten miles and that is restorative for you, 814 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:43,719 Speaker 1: do that. But for me, it's all about movement that 815 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,560 Speaker 1: connects us back into the present moment, that connects us 816 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 1: into our bodies. There has to be intentionality in the 817 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: movement that you're doing, whatever it is, right. I like 818 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:56,399 Speaker 1: that you said that because I don't want to send 819 00:46:56,480 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 1: the message that movement isn't self care, because it's something 820 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: that's easily thrown out. But what I think I'm learning 821 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,919 Speaker 1: is the movement that is self care. For you might 822 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 1: be impacted differently based on who you are where. For 823 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 1: me self care, it might be really good for me 824 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 1: to do some yoga, because I'm the kind of gal 825 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 1: who's going to a group fitness class and hanging out 826 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,799 Speaker 1: with all my friends. But what I've been learning more 827 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 1: recently about myself is when I go to those fitness classes, 828 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:31,920 Speaker 1: I want to go sit in the corner so I 829 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 1: have to make I contact for people, But what I'm 830 00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 1: needing is time to move my body with my slow 831 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:44,280 Speaker 1: It would only be fair to go to a place 832 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,879 Speaker 1: that that is the goal is to connect with you 833 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 1: versus there's plenty of places that one of the goals 834 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 1: of the of the studios is to create community, and 835 00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 1: I don't always want that. Yeah, right, okay, So you 836 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,040 Speaker 1: said one of the things is movement. What was the 837 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 1: other one? The general self care? Oh? Writing or journaling 838 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 1: the other thing I was gonna say when you said 839 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,320 Speaker 1: that kind of the same vein. Would it be true 840 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 1: that like some people their self care is going to 841 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 1: have this journal where they write every day about experiences 842 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 1: in blada ba blah blah blah blah blah. But some 843 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:20,839 Speaker 1: people's form of journaling might be their Instagram grid and 844 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 1: writing little blurbs about things, or I have a Google 845 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 1: doc on my computer. But journaling and writing it it 846 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be one way of doing it, and 847 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 1: that's the self care way. Whatever is going to get 848 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:37,240 Speaker 1: your butt in the chair. I mean, you could be drawing. 849 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: Ali talks a lot about, you know, people who just 850 00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 1: really are resistant to writing for self care. You know, 851 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,319 Speaker 1: she's an author and a writing coach, and she'll say, 852 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,799 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes she'll just encourage people to start off 853 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 1: and just doodle on a page. And I love this, 854 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 1: like whole idea of kind of stream of consciousness, just 855 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,480 Speaker 1: sitting down and dumping. You know. It's like the morning 856 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 1: pages and out of that great book, The Artist's Way. 857 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 1: You know. It's like, I think there's so much power 858 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 1: in putting what is internal on an external surface. There's 859 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,400 Speaker 1: a transfer that happens, and I don't know all the 860 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,920 Speaker 1: brain science behind that, but I know it's powerful and 861 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,719 Speaker 1: I know it works. So in the workshop that you 862 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,040 Speaker 1: guys are doing, all of this is going to be 863 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,880 Speaker 1: talked about in detail for each type of person. Correct, 864 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 1: yate create correct, Okay, two ideas merging. It's a mashup. Basically, 865 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 1: this workshop that we're talking about is called the Self 866 00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:43,120 Speaker 1: Care Workshop.
