Debunking "Self-Care."

At LIFT, we work with mothers who have been told, or have read, that they need to do more for themselves. “I need to do more self-care!,” we hear moaned (and wail to ourselves.).

Is it not satirical to beat yourself up for failing to “self-care?” The failure to pursue self-care has become a weapon women use to beat themselves and each other with – yet another thing to feel badly about ourselves for. Evidence of something else amiss: low-self worth, self-sabotage, low-self-esteem. Or is it?
