Wellness Plan/Self Care

Self-Care is essential to the practice of ethical counseling. I consider myself to be a physical, spiritual, and emotional being. I learned the importance of self-care in my earlier career as a CEO, and feel that it is even more important as a counselor. My self-care practice, prompted by GCU professor Dr. Audra Tousaint, initially involved doing an act of self-care in each of these categories, and has since evolved to a practice as described in the "Self Care Transformation" resource I have developed and included below.  The practice of self-care is essential for everyone who is interested in their physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
