Join Jayne Hardy to learn everything you need to know about self-care; what it is, why it's important, why it's such a struggle and how to integrate it into day-to-day life.

Self-care is a tool, accessible to all, which helps us to take responsibility for our own happiness - our physical, emotional, psychological and social needs. Jayne, author of The Self-Care Project, argues that it is the best preventative measure available to us to combat feeling overwhelmed, stress and ill health, in our hectic, modern world.

The founder and CEO of the Blurt Foundation, Jayne will walk you through the case for self-care and provide advice on how to chisel out daily space for self-care in a practical, achievable and realistic way.
