Self-care: A dynamic approach to integral health (EPUB)

By Fernanda Cabral Schveitzer, Mariana Cabral Schveitzer

Self-care is a dynamic and continuous cycle of self-knowledge. Caring for oneself is a complex process influenced by the culture and health model with which each person identifies. Consequently, care is also influenced by the perception of what resources are available to promote health and well-being.In this book, you will find references to deepen your knowledge in health and care, through approaches found in Western health, integrative and complementary therapies and consciential health, thereby broadening your understanding of the elements that make up this dynamic process, which that favor self-research and self-awareness.The authors present the FEMA method, an innovative proposal developed over a decade of research and experience in integral health, to organize self-care in four stages: Find-Embrace-Move-Again. In this method, you will be invited to connect with your own needs and desires, embrace personal demands and discomforts, mobilize the necessary resources to achieve a new benchmark of well-being, and then start a new cycle of self-care whenever necessary.The intention is that, while reading this book, you will refine your understanding of self-care, and apply the method on a day-to-day basis to benefit your own well-being and those with whom you live or assist professionally.
