Welcome to 'Lupus Life Podcast', your congenial guide to physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being with lupus. In today's episode, I, Cory Hollingsworth, a spiritual advisor and meditation facilitator, discuss the importance of nurturing oneself through simple everyday practices. With the experience of managing systemic lupus erythematosus personally, I stress here the significance of treating yourself kindly each day. This podcast will shed light on ways to bring self-love into your daily routine. Firstly, I discuss the physical aspect of self-love, sharing personal tips including regular walks, eating well and ensuring ample rest. Then, moving on to mental care, I deliberate on maintaining brain stimulation through reading, learning new tasks and keeping abreast with different topics, acknowledging the unique challenges of those living with lupus. Subsequently, the episode explores the emotional aspect of self-care, indicating healthy emotional releases, such as journaling, finding laughter, expressing emotions, and not hesitating to shed tears when needed. Lastly, we dive into the spiritual dimension, emphasizing the role of personal meditation, prayer, and simply breathing exercises in establishing a profound connection with your soul and spirit. This episode serves as an inspirational guide to striking a balance in your well-being, motivating you to be gentle, compassionate, and happy with yourself, no matter what day it is. So tune in to learn more about self-care strategies and remember, taking care of you is the first step to a happy, fulfilled life with lupus.
