Lecture by Carine Plancke as part of the 2026 webinar series "Care in Academia: An Interdisciplinary Perspective" , organized by the GRACE-ETN.
Self-care and spiritual wellbeing practices are increasingly shaped by neoliberal ideals of productivity. Yet when enacted as forms of radical self-love and self-recovery, they can also operate as sites of resistance.
This webinar explores this tension through an ethnographic study of womb yoga, a women-centred alternative therapy developed in the UK.
