From a trauma informed approach, self-care is an important part of the work that we need to do to regulate the nervous system and practice feeling safe. Self care is an important part of the healing process.

We can map the nervous system, building awareness of what causes us to shift into a stress response but we then need to “do the work” to practise shifting back into a state where we feel calm, safe, present and connected as appropriate. 

That “work” is the process of reparenting ourselves, literally treating ourself like a loved one – taking care of our self, showing compassion for our self. We can do that through regular, simple acts of self care. 

We can identify those things that help us to feel safe, relaxed and calm and start to build them into our daily lives.

These are the very simple and seemingly mundane actions that reinforce the belief that we are safe and worthy.

The seemingly simple and small actions of self care, when practised regularly, compound to have a powerful effect over time that cannot be discounted as an essential part of the healing process.

Self Care = Cues of Safety + Empowering = Healing
