🎉 Happy International Self Care Day! 🌿✨
At the Existential Academy and Dilemma Consultancy, we know that self-care isn’t just a luxury — it’s an essential part of living authentically and sustainably, especially for those supporting others in therapeutic work. 💬🧠

Today, take a moment to slow down and reconnect with yourself. Whether it’s a quiet walk, journaling, meaningful conversation, or simply doing nothing — your presence with yourself matters. 💖

You can’t pour from an empty cup. So here’s to honouring your needs with the same care you offer others. What’s your go-to self-care ritual? Share below! ⬇️
