120. Healthy Habits Suck with Clinical Psychologist Dr. Dayna Lee-Bagley

Let’s face it:  self-care is a journey.  And like any journey, we’re bound to run into unexpected roadblocks and detours that are beyond our control (think pandemic, home schooling, client crises, etc.).  Fortunately, we all have a built-in global positioning system (GPS) called values, that can help us navigate our journey, even in the face of roadblocks and detours.  It can help keep us moving in the right direction, even if that might mean taking a slightly different path than we had initially planned.        In this episode, clinical psychologist and author, Dr. Dayna Lee-Baggley, shares how her values have shaped the work she does and offers her perspective on some of the unique self-care, or 're-charging', challenges facing healthcare providers, the impact of the pandemic, and some easy ways we can start incorporating value-driven action into our own self-care.   Episode highlights:What led Dr. Lee-Baggley to leave her hospital position after 15 yearsHow the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) framework can fit into self-careFactors that make it hard for healthcare providers to take care of themselves How the pandemic (or “apocalypse”) has impacted usAn easy way to start incorporating value-driven action into our livesDr. Dayna Lee-Baggley is a Registered Clinical Psychologist in BC, AB, ON and NS.
