Self-Care in 10 Minutes: Tips from Nurse Coach Jamie Jenkins
In our latest podcast episode, we were privileged to sit down with Jamie Jenkins, a seasoned registered nurse with a decade of experience in labor and delivery. But Jamie isn't just any nurse; she's a Nurse Coach – blending her vast medical knowledge with empowerment techniques to help individuals lead better lives.
One of the episode's key focuses was on realistic and tangible self-care strategies. In today's fast-paced world, many lament the lack of time for self-care, often associating it with lengthy spa days or weekend retreats. However, Jamie challenges this notion, shedding light on how self-care can be seamlessly integrated into our daily routines, often requiring just 10 minutes or even less.
Some of her valuable insights include:
- Phoning a Friend: A simple call can make a world of difference, reminding us of our connections and giving us a momentary escape.
- Early Arrivals: Jamie suggests getting to work a tad early. Those extra few minutes in the car can be a golden opportunity to recenter oneself, mentally preparing for the day ahead.
- Morning Calm: For those with bustling households, setting an alarm just 10 minutes before everyone else can grant you a pocket of serenity. Jamie emphasizes on using this time for practices like breath work or meditation.
