"I am grieving the death of a loved one. My spiritual self-care has been important to me this week. I'm reading from books that inspire me and this helps me seek a deeper purpose in my life." ~ Fellow meditator, Juliana from Brazil Welcome to a week of ultimate self-care. This week, you'll be guided on a journey to nourish your mind, body, and soul. Consider what you need most in your life right now and create slow-down rituals for self-care. In each episode, you'll be guided with meditations that relax your mind and body. You're invited to join our 3 Best Quest by doing three self-care rituals every day. Consider the kind of self-care you need most in your life and weave three daily rituals into your life.

This is day 7 of a 7-day meditation series, Ultimate Self-Care Journey, episodes 2446-2452.
