Hi lovely, It’s Selina here this week with a gorgeous and soothing conversation that is guaranteed to have you breathing a sigh of relief and calm, because I got to dive deep into conversation with the queen of self-care, Suzy Reading. Suzy is a mother of two, an author, Chartered Psychologist and Coach. She specialises in self-care, helping people manage their stress, emotions, and energetic bank balance.    I have always loved her first book ‘The Self-Care Revolution’ and now she has written another, equally powerful book: ‘Self-Care for Tough Times’.    Reading it was like receiving a warm and soothing hug and talking with Suzy filled me with so much love and comfort and I hope hearing the conversation will do the same for you.   In this episode we talk about:  Why so many of us can find ourselves resisting self-care (and what to do about it) Why parents, particularly mothers, feel guilt around needing time to themselves away from the kids   What self-care looks like during tough times (and why it can be different to self-care during normal times) Our innate capacity to self soothe and heal when we go through tough times Why we are both head over heals in love with managing your energy The importance of going gently and tenderly with ourselves as we come out of lockdown   As always, if you loved this episode, please do let us know by leaving a 5 star rating wherever you listen to your podcasts.    And to connect with Suzy and find out more about her books and the work that she does, go to: Instagram: www.instagram.com/suzyreading/  Facebook: www.facebook.com/SuzyReadingPsychologyAndYoga/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SuzyReading   www.suzyreading.co.uk Lots of love,  Selina
