    This week on MomLife: Yes I Can we discuss one of our core principles....SELF CARE! Like most people it's a word that we throw around in our everyday discussions without really looking into its true definition. Join us today as we set discuss self care with the guru herself Krystal Reddick of Total Life Care Coaching! Just about one decade ago Krystal was diagnosed with a Bipolar Disorder. After receiving the proper medical help she knew she had to 'intentionally' develop new practices to care for herself. Thus Total Life Care Coaching was born. Now Krystal does workshops working with adolescents, young adults, women (also one on one coaching) teaching what self care actually is and how to implement it into our daily lives. Self care is defined as intentional practices you put in place daily for your well being. These practices care for our Mind, Body, and Spirit. Krystal takes it a step further by discussing how self care can better us mentally, spiritually, financially, interpersonally, and professionally. We also discuss how to begin a morning self care routine using Hal Elrod's S.A.V.E.R.S "Miracle Morning" guide. S- silence, A- affirmations, V- visualize, E- excercise, R- reading, S- scribing You can find Krystal at www.totallifecarecoaching.com as well as on Instagram @totallifecarecoaching.
