03/12/20 BLOG 26: SELF-CARE & MY DOG
Anna here. This week’s blog comes from a woman with lived experience of the sex industry who has been working alongside the Together Alone Project. She has created a list of the self-care benefits she gets from the relationship she has and time she spends with her dog. We would like to thank her so much for all of her input and time. |
When I was thinking about self-care during difficult times, I considered how much my dog helps me. I explored the idea in more depth with Anna, and I saw my relationship with my dog was even more important than I realised.
It’s been a lovely process. I have been reminded of my skills and having a voice that may help or encourage others, has just been great. |
This list is such a lovely reminder of how relationships can be a huge part of our own self-care, as can the process of reflecting on the positive ones in your life. I don’t know about anyone else, but this makes me want a dog in my life immediately! Thanks so much again to the woman who created this list. We’d love to hear from anyone else about positive self-care they get from the pets in their lives, or any other form of self-care you’d like to talk about. You can contact us here or via email on [email protected]
Looking forward to hearing from you, take care |
