Suzy Reading: The real definition of self-care
It was the combination of motherhood colliding with her Fathers terminal illness that catapulted Suzy into the world of self-care. Suzy is, (among other things) a mother of two, a Chartered Psychologist, Yoga Teacher, Health Coach and author of the fantastic ‘The Self-Care Revolution’. Her mission is to support and empower people with the tools they need to engage in their own unique self-care habit.
In this episode, we discuss the importance of creating your own unique framework for self-care that can serve you both in day to day life as well as times of need.
In this episode you will learn:
· The true definition for self-care, that will help you concrete it in your daily life
· The common barriers to self-care and how to overcome them
· The importance of experimentation for what works at what time for you.
· How to build a self-care framework that is unique to you
One question to ask yourself based on today’s episode is:
· What does self-care facilitate in your life? What does it allow you to do? Who does it allow you to be?
What I love about Suzy’s work is she takes what can be seen as quite nebulous and brings it right down into the real world, giving us actionable tools and skills to execute our own self-care frameworks the fit our busy lives. I am absolutely thrilled to be sharing this episode on the real definition of self-care with Suzy Reading.

"You were put in my path for a reason. Over the course of our sessions a light bulb went off with me!!! That’s when it all changed for the better."
- Orla
"This programme is different from everything else you’ve ever done. It wasn’t just loads of advice. I liked learning and thinking about my goals – it wasn’t about someone else, it was about me specifically. We all know what we need to do, we need to exercise more and eat better but this was a different approach, it was empowering. Doing the programme was a light bulb moment for me, it became 100% obvious to me where I had failed in the past and what. I should do in the future. I feel so much more in control of my weight now but not only that I feel stronger, more relaxed and happier."
- Cathy
"It’s a different way of thinking a different perspective. All diets fail this isn’t a diet it’s different. It’s a lifestyle change it helps look at the behaviours behind why you eat rather than just solving the symptoms. It shows you if you take small but deliberate actions what the cumulative changes would be . I certainly feel positive I’m heading in the right direction. This isn’t a quick fix its looking at your motivation – changing your mindset and that helps change your behaviours."
