The go-to guide for self-care, an A to Z, mental health–centric handbook from asking for help to catching some zzz’s
Self-care is everywhere—but sound bites on this trendy subject tend to focus more on face masks and bubble baths than on its key objective: mental health. Now, top health writer Anna Borges is here to fix that in The More or Less Definitive Guide to Self-Care.
Formerly at BuzzFeed, Borges helped popularize the self-care movement in the first place, and her book distills the “self-care internet” into an A to Z list with over two hundred entries—from soul-searching prompts to simple pick-me-ups. Listeners can tailor their own routines by choosing among Borges’s strategies, which cover four distinctive realms of self-care: physical, mental, social, and spiritual.
Drawing on real-world experience, her own and others’, as well as expert advice, Borges empowers listeners to take charge of their well-being. This guide is a one-stop shop for mind, body, and soul.
Anna Borges is a writer, podcast host, mental-health advocate, and senior health editor at Self. Her work has appeared in Buzzfeed, Cosmopolitan, The Outline, and more. She lives in Brooklyn with two cats, and you can find her making sure everyone in the group chat is practicing self-care.
Eileen Stevens is a voice-over actress whose voice can be heard on cartoons, promos, programs for English-language learners, and audiobooks. An Earphones Award–winning narrator, she is also an audiobook director and producer.
