Ep229: Self-care for rope people

Self-care is a topic Mya is particularly passionate about, and in this episode we take a deep dive into what self-care means for people who practice rope.

Although many of our episodes touch on aspects of caring for ourselves and our partners, this conversation focuses specifically on building self-care practices that support a healthy and sustainable relationship with rope.

Topics include:

• What self-care is and what it isn't

• Why self-care is important in rope practice

• The foundations of effective self-care

• How self-care can look different for tops and bottoms

• Mya and Fox's personal self-care approaches

• Why self-awareness is one of the most important self-care skills

• The highly individual nature of self-care

• Practical ideas to support your own wellbeing

• Adapting self-care to different styles and intensities of rope
