Leigh Joy Mansel-Pleydell
The self-care tripod model I have devised is based on 25 years of studies of medical articles, psychological textbooks, spiritual texts and philosophical books aswell as the 12 step program. It is called the tripod model as it has 3 distinct aspects to it, namely 1. Self-care (physical, mental, emotional) 2. Tribe care (relates to how we teach others how to treat us, boundary setting, assertive communication setting and finally choosing our tribe) 3. Sacred care (relates to where do we draw our inspiration from, how do we surrender our will, how do we lean into the universe of creativity and bliss). The main focus of the tripod model is to encourage my client to create an authentic and deeply compassionate connection to themselves, others and the sacred. Addicts or partners of addicts have used substances or people to numb the pain of trauma, rejection, grief and abandonment. My role as a coach and counsellor is to help them to gently connect to those feelings, feel them without wanting to numb them and allow the feelings to move up and out of their bodies. I encourage my clients develop deep compassion for themselves which they are later able to give as a gift to others. The self-care tripod model helps them to do this.
