Patricia has found her PEACEFUL Spot!

After over 15 years as a social worker, she has learned that self-care is about maintaining inner peace and balance in both her professional and personal life. She finds peace in morning walks, Tai Chi stretches, reading, and spending time with my kids and family.

How do you find your PEACEFUL SPOT?
