What Does Taking Care of Yourself in 2025 Really Mean?
How to make meaningful and sustainable choices in 2025
We hear the phrase "self-care" all the time—on social media, in wellness circles, even in corporate settings. But in 2025, what does it actually mean to take care of yourself? Is it a bubble bath after a stressful day? A strict morning routine? Or something deeper?
In the latest episode of our podcast, Selves Unedited, Dr. Danielle Colborn and I break down the evolving meaning of self-care in today’s fast-paced, high-pressure world.
Here are a few themes we discuss:
Setting boundaries is essential for maintaining mental health.
Navigating discomfort is a crucial aspect of self-care.
Intentions and goals should align with personal values.
Moderation is key to avoiding an all-or-nothing mindset.
Embracing imperfection can lead to personal growth.
Holistic health encompasses physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
Authenticity fosters deeper connections in relationships.
Mindfulness can help reduce anxiety and improve focus.
Self-care is about living fully and loving oneself.
True self-care isn’t about achieving perfection. It’s about building a life that supports your well-being—mentally, physically, and emotionally.
