| Summary: | At the heart of soul care is self-care. Being able to love God and love others is rooted in how we love ourselves. Each person’s understanding of self-care is informed by their personal belief system and their implementation practices. This article will provide a multi-phasic model that describes the self-care journey and focuses on how to implement self-care practices. A key distinction of this model is that it is used in an ongoing fashion. To avoid confusion between beliefs and practice, attention will be given to the decision-making process for self-care implementation. Specific activities that address the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and relational parts of people will be discussed. The article will also consider the nuances of assessing self-care and why it is important to value self-care, which is in keeping with the greatest commandments provided by Jesus in Mark 12:28–30. |
