Believe, Practice, Choose

The Gift of Self Care

Relax, reflect, and feel rejuvenated

Welcome to Fuzzy Red Socks

I’m so glad you’re here.

Fuzzy red socks are a symbol of self care and a reminder to treat yourself well. Imagine you’re on the couch curled up in a blanket with a cup of hot chocolate, a good book, and a pair of fuzzy red socks that keep your feet warm and cozy. This site is where you can come for practical ideas to help you Believe you matter, Practice Self Care, and Choose your best life. This is a safe space to come for simple tools to make YOU a priority and start on your path to regular self care.

I’m Carole MacLean, author, blogger, and self care advocate. My personal experience caring for my parents during the end of their lives and as a hospice patient advocate motivated me to blog about taking better care of myself, conduct Fuzzy Red Socks Retreats, and write my book Believe, Practice, Choose the Gift of Self Care – 21 Tips for Your Self Care Tool Belt and its companion, The Self Care Affirmation Journal. You can check them out here and here. I’m also the host of The Self Care Podcast which you can find on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

I can’t wait to help you start your self care journey.
