Description: "This book examines the conflicts and deterrents to self-care that can often lead to distress, impairment, or burnout. It invites readers to add their own "voices to the chorus" via journaling exercises that systematically peel through the layers of this complex issue by individually exploring topics ranging from exercise and body image to vicarious traumatization, coping, replenishing, and seeking personal therapy."--BOOK JACKET.
