Self-care is not a bubble bath. 🧪
(Unpopular opinion, maybe — but hear me out.)
True psychological self-care is the set of behaviours that regulate your nervous system over time. It is sleep hygiene. It is boundaries around reactive communication. It is knowing when your stress window is closing, and what to do about it.
The wellness industry has turned it into something decorative. But the evidence base is clear: consistent, intentional self-regulation is one of the highest-leverage investments you can make — in your performance, your relationships, and your health.
At START with Gudrun, we take self-care seriously — because the science does.
