Uppward: A Self-Care System for Purposeful Living

Do you have a habit of putting yourself last? Do you feel exhausted and overwhelmed trying to make others happy at the expense of your own health?

Let's face it, investing time in ourselves often feels selfish, especially for those of us who are nurturers at heart. Uppward challenges some of our long-held beliefs about self-care by suggesting that caring for ourselves properly can actually enhance our ability to love and care for others.

Uppward outlines eight dimensions of self-care: Systemic, Emotive, Luminescent, Financial, Cognitive, Aptitudinal, Relational and Environmental, and explains how to design a comprehensive self-care practice that can help you live your purpose.

In 2015, I quit my job without having another one to go to. Was it scary? You bet. Irresponsible? Not at all. A year later, I felt more focused and energized than I ever imagined, and I realize now that having time away gave me the space to find clarity of purpose.

In this book, you will learn how to:

• Cultivate more positivity and optimism
• Create clear, meaningful goals
• Design a self-care system that fits your unique needs and life circumstances
• Take personal ownership of your health
