Many of us struggle with the guilt of taking time for ourselves, often viewing self-care as a luxury we can only afford once everything else is done. But here’s the truth: when we neglect ourselves, we welcome exhaustion, resentment, and burnout. This week, on episode 297 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I am continuing my special series guiding you through my Positively Productive Toolkit, with the key to self-care: the Joy List.
In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I’m diving into my Joy List, reframing self-care not as an indulgence, but as essential maintenance for your mind and body, helping you map your way back to yourself through the science of positive emotions and the art of “compassionate productivity.”
Key takeaways:
Your joy is not a frivolous "extra", it’s the fuel that keeps you whole. This week, start by identifying three quick ways you can sprinkle joy into your day. Whether it’s listening to a favorite song or taking three deep breaths outside, notice how your energy shifts when you choose yourself.
