Self Care 101
Do you love being a mom, but wonder when it's your turn to take a break?
Are you stretched thin taking care of everyone else?
Many of us are drawn to the idea of self-care, yet feel blocked from making time for ourselves.
The good news is this: we have a Good Shepherd who cares for us. When we follow Him, he leads us beside quiet waters, makes us lie down in green pastures, and restores our souls. Being cared for by God is PART of our walk with Him. When we connect to what brings us joy, not only are we filled up for the journey, but God uses us to change the world.
Self Care 101 is a workshop for moms of young kids.
Through story-telling, reflection and sharing, you'll get the space to identify what brings you life, what prevents you from making time for it, and the first steps you can take in the next week to be cared for by God.
Perfect for moms' nights out, women's retreats, and MOPS-type groups.
