Synopsis

It's okay to put yourself first! For thousands of years, social and religious conditioning have encouraged us to always put others first. This complicates the issue of self-care. There are billions of people in the world, so if you always put others first, who will take care of you? This book champions equal rights for self-care. The human heart will never be satisfied with caring only for the self. If you take good care of yourself, you will naturally want to care for others. Dr. Cat's Helping Handbook can help you find your way.
