Podbite - Nurturing Self Worth an interactive episode

Reframe Food

Today's podcast episode, 'Nurturing Self-Worth', is an immersive, interactive session designed to guide you through reflective exercises, provoke thought and understanding of self-worth, self-care, and express personal boundaries. Starting with a poignant poem about the pervasive, invisible emotional labour we carry daily, it encourages you to query what you visualise when you think about self-care. It challenges perceptions and uncovers the often-forgotten aspects of self-care, like getting enough sleep, setting boundaries and voicing needs.

This episode takes you through simple exercises to gauge your self-worth and understand your value independent of your roles, your relationships and approval from others. The 'Bill of Rights' lists statements related to valuing ourselves, our needs, our desires both physical and emotional. This could act as a triggering catalyst to understand what aspects of self-worth we struggle to assert.

Next, through a reflective 'Petals of Worth' exercise, you are prompted to acknowledge your inherent attributes beyond their appearance. This practice then extends to daily exercises to gradually build your self-worth 'muscle' with simple mantras such as "One thing I value about myself is.." significantly contributing to our self-dialogue.

Concluding with a soothing meditation, this episode serves a gentle reminder and affirmation of our self-worth, self-value, our rights to voice our needs, exercise boundaries, and the need for rest.
