I think it's safe to say that the year 2020 was the year of self-care. Now, while the self-care of today that we see on the gram seems to simply consist of only facials and bubble baths, self-care has deep roots and a radical history that definitely wasn’t in our textbooks.
Joined by Les Alfred founder of Balanced Black Girl an online wellness community and podcast focused on health, wellness, and self-care from the perspectives of Black women, we uncover the radical and political act of self-care that started with revolutionary Black women.
In this episode we :
- Find out why the term self care was coined in 1950s
- Uncover the connection between self-care and the women of the civil rights movement and Black Panther Party
- Learn about Les and the wellness platform and podcast that she has created for Black women
- Talk about the ugly parts of self care
- Highlight some self care tips and tricks
- And sooo much more.
Available now, where ever you listen to podcast.
Where I get my info from:
