This session will address the idea that "self-care" can sometimes be privileged, idealized, and over-simplified in a culture that applauds busy-ness and individualistic definitions of well-being. The term self-care also suggests that caring for ourselves is something that we do alone. Presenters will facilitate a discussion that allows for new ways of thinking about the topic, including mindfullness and stress relief.
