About this service

Each day, John Pelikan, LCSW, LCADC, guides you through a different self-care exercise on video. You can follow along, try the practice for yourself, and use a journal prompt to reflect on what works for you.

Rather than asking you to overhaul your entire routine, the program helps you begin with one manageable practice at a time. You’ll also receive a printable self-care planner to help you create a realistic routine that supports your energy, balance, and well-being beyond the seven days.

The complete seven-day program is available for $49 and includes access to a private support community.

Pain points

Does any of this feel familiar?

“I know I need to take better care of myself, but I don’t know where to begin.”

“I’m always taking care of other people, and my own needs come last.”

“I wait until I’m completely exhausted before giving myself permission to rest.”

“Self-care feels like one more task I’m supposed to fit into an already busy life.”

“I start healthy routines with good intentions, but I have trouble sticking with them.”

“I want simple guidance and accountability instead of more information to figure out on my own.”

Printable Self-Care Planner

Habit-Building Support
