Self-care is big on everyone’s mind right now, what with lockdown 2.0 here in the UK, surge capacity depletion, the shorter days and colder weather. It’s been a buzzword for months, everyone has their own opinions and versions of it and it really is something we should all be considering during “these unprecedented times” (sorry).

Having a reflection practice is becoming more and more important to me, and the benefits more apparent. There was a time a few years ago where I knew it was useful, but I did the majority of the reflection in my head. As a general ‘thinky’ person I can spend a lot of time in there anyway; reflecting is kind of a natural state for me to be in - away with the fairies, head in the clouds. But these days I’m much more intentional in my reflection practice and the results are much more rewarding.
