January 22nd What do I do (or can do) for Self-Care - Led by Ravinder Gabble
For many of us, self-care can sometimes feel like another commitment on top of everything else we have going on. During this walk, we will talk about how you build a self-care plan that works for you and your busy schedule. Participants will start with a reflection of their current daily choices relating to health and wellness; what changes they would like to make, and finally, how to integrate simple, effective self-care ‘moments’ into their daily routines.
