Description

"We may think of caring for ourselves as a selfish act, assuming that any care we extend ourselves takes away from the caring we can offer others. But this is not true. Rather, a willingness to care for ourselves expands our ability to care for others because our hearts are open to the warmth of what is precious in each of us. We grow in our ability to care when we practice opening our hearts to all beings, including ourselves."
Tarthang Tulku. Caring. xxi

Eat your veggies, shake your booty and get over it! Nutrition, Exercise and Stress Management are the keys to Awakening to Health, which is a precondition to caring for others.
