International Self-Care Day is Friday, which is more than enough of a reason to find ways to mindfully pour back into yourself.
Whether self-care looks like getting a good sweat in during virtual workout or slipping into a warm bubble bath, something we all can appreciate are podcasts created to help put our minds at ease.
Self-care-related podcasts are great because they usually allow for easy listening while doing anything, from lying around in bed to catching up on some chores.
One platform that provides free access to a plethora of inspiring talks is Oprah Winfrey's Super Soul Conversations podcast. Here, you will find everything from enlightening conversations with Bog Iger to Jennifer Lopez.
Many would agree that between the coronavirus pandemic to the uprising fight against police brutality and social injustices, 2020 has been one wild ride. With that, a self-care podcast episode or three wouldn't hurt to tune into.
Ahead, check out six more podcasts that can help to leave your mind, body and soul feeling restored. The best part? Most can be easily found on Apple or Spotify.
