From puppy yoga to gua shas, we are promised pastel-colored quick fixes to long-term social problems that cause burnout and stress. But the truth is, you can't meditate your way out of a 40-hour work week with no childcare. So when these promises prove empty, we are made to feel like failures within a system that is failing us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, psychiatrist Dr. Pooja Lakshmin offers a sustainable practice for real self-care. Based on her clinical and personal experience, Dr. Lakshmin's revolutionary framework reimagines self-care as an ongoing, internal process that involves making difficult decisions in line with your values, putting boundaries in place, treating yourself with compassion, and asserting your power. Practicing it has the power to change your relationships, your workplace, and our broken systems. Her work serves as a wake-up call, reminding us that wellbeing is not a product to buy, but a way to be.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is time to let go of the illusions of wellness and start practicing real self-care. Because the result - having ownership over your life - is nothing less than a personal and social revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 206g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 197 x 129 x 18 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781847943729\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pooja Lakshmin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":45224279015674,"sku":"9781847943729","price":7.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1708704055388_book.jpg?v=1708717357","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/real-selfcare-powerful-practices-to-nourish-yourself-from-the-inside-out-9781847943729","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
