I hope you enjoy these videos I created to accompany my book, 365 Ways to Feel Better: Self-care Ideas for Embodied Wellbeing. While they’ll make more sense if you have the book (in terms of the benefits for our mental and emotional health and wellbeing), I hope you’ll find them helpful even if you don’t.
