About Real Self Care
From women’s mental health expert and NYT contributor Pooja Lakshmin, MD, Real Self-Care is a refreshing take on the wellness industry’s false promises and a guide to creating real, lasting change.
Dr. Lakshmin exposes how "self-care" has become a superficial buzzword, tied to products and quick fixes that often distract from deeper issues. Instead, she introduces a meaningful, values-driven approach that empowers you to set boundaries, practice self-compassion, and take ownership of your life.
With relatable case studies and actionable steps, this book offers a roadmap to real self-care—one that challenges broken systems, prioritizes your well-being, and sparks a personal and social revolution.
