About the Book

Learn how to replenish your spirit and tend to your soul with this 49-day devotional created by clinical psychologist, theologian, and author Chanequa Walker-Barnes.

Taking care of ourselves is essential. But while many of us are focusing on our physical, emotional, and mental well-being, we’re overlooking an aspect of ourselves that needs nourishing as well—our souls. This 49-day interactive devotional from clinical psychologist and theologian Dr. Chanequa Walker-Barnes shows how to begin caring for your spiritual self in only forty-nine days.

Each day includes short, accessible, and practical prompts, practices, scripture passages, hymns, and prayers that help you nurture your spirit and offer insight and guidance on:

• Practicing self-compassion
• Setting boundaries
• Accessing pleasure and joy
• Identifying priorities and establishing routines that reflect your values
• Understanding why self-care is subversive and reparative in social justice
• And more.

Inspiring and practical, ruminative and actionable, Sacred Self-Care teaches you how to craft a sustainable self-care practice to care for yourself as the beautiful and wonderful creation of God that you are.
