Career Development Training for Personal and Executive Assistants - Self-care for Assistants

Learn and master the skills you need to be an incredible Assistant ➔ https://www.practicallyperfectpa.com/ https://www.practicallyperfectpa.com/newsletter/ In this video, titled "Self-Care for Assistants," Gemma will guide you through a transformative session aimed at helping you prioritise guilt-free me time and honour it as an essential part of your daily routine. Do you remember the last time you took some time for yourself? With the overwhelming number of tasks and responsibilities assistants have, it's common for self-care to be the first thing pushed aside. Gemma understands this struggle and asks another critical question: When did you last feel stressed? Perhaps it was today as you try to juggle work amidst various obligations. Or maybe you enjoy the busy nature of your job and find it motivating. While not all stress is evil, excessive time and mental energy demands can lead to built-up tension. Gemma compares this stress to water pouring into a cup, eventually causing it to overflow. You may feel distracted and uneasy, primarily if you work from home while homeschooling. This scenario is all too relatable in the chaos of work and home life today. To help you find some calm amidst the chaos, Gemma guides you through a breathing exercise. Find a comfortable position, focus on your breath, and consider its qualities. Notice how inhaling expands your belly and how exhaling slowly brings a sense of ease to both your mind and body. By practising this exercise, you've already taken a step towards self-care. Self-care goes beyond basic hygiene and occasional indulgences. It involves consciously and deliberately caring for your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. It's not about being selfish; it's about being your best self at work and in life. While the self-care industry often misrepresents it as luxury experiences, self-care is about establishing a daily practice that nurtures all aspects of your well-being. The risks of neglecting self-care are significant. Work-related stress is one of the biggest risks to businesses. According to a study, mental health costs the UK economy billions of pounds yearly. You benefit and contribute to your workplace's well-being by prioritising your self-care. Join Gemma on this transformative journey as she helps you shift your mindset, prioritise self-care, and discover a sustainable approach to thriving in your assistant role.
