Author Description

Women Physicians: where are You in your list of duties and tasks for the day? Do you feel that self-care has to be pampering yourself, and you don’t have time( or money ) for that? “Self-Care is not a mani-pedi” is a title inspired by the constant “take care of yourself and….” suggestions and exhortations to do things like taking a bubble-bath or get your hair and nails done instead of advice and support to prioritize our own health and well-being on a par with those we take care of, our patients, family and friends. In this little book nine women physicians write about what self-care means to them and how they have made space for themselves in order to achieve a healthier work and family life. Tiny book, tiny price with potential for BIG changes. All proceeds go to MSF (Doctors Without Borders)
