A Gift of Self Care for 2021

January 2021 –

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” – Adapted from Marcel Proust

As hospice physicians, we search for opportunities to improve self-care. The 10% Happier app has changed our lives.  It is brief, accessible, and gentle to those with busy brains. Even on days you don’t take 10 minutes to rest with the app, try listening to it during your commute. It’s a powerful kindness.

Access is free to frontline workers during the COVID pandemic.
