The power behind self care as a leader

When I’m feeling a bit run down like I have a bit of a mild cold there is a sort of chicken and egg moment.

I have a shave,
cut my hair

and then I KNOW it’s gone even if I still have some symptoms.

I think I probably feel a bit better first but the hair, the shave, some smart clothes

that’s what creates the leap forwards.

It’s not vanity,

it’s self care

When we look OUR best,

We feel our best

When we feel our best

We think our best

When we think our best

We act our best

The power of that is hard to measure

The better we feel

The better we can feel

When we feel better

We treat ourselves better

When we treat ourselves better

Our energy goes up

Our body becomes more toned

Our posture improves

We act how we want to act

We have created this funny idea about the inside and outside being non-representative or reflective of each other.

That’s rarely true.

Work on the inside and the outside and you feel better

Feel better

Act better
