The concept of anthropological practice as a special form of transformation practice and person development practice is introduced. The concept is discussed in terms of cultural tradition known as the practice of "self-care". The concept of anthropological practice is considered from different focuses, primarily from the topic of care: ontological tope, discourse of care tope, a tope of care as the practice, a tope of care object, a tope of care subject. A classification of anthropological practices is proposed, where different types of objects and subjects for anthropological practice of care are revealed from the perspective of this topic. As a result, five types of anthropological practices of self-care are described: "epistrofe", "agon", "mimesis", "cogito" and "autopoiesis". Each type means different identities for a subject of practice, different practices and different teloses, i.e. ultimate aims of the practice. Works of contemporary authors containing analysis and classification of self-care practices in the culture are reviewed.
