Our 5-part mini-series Apply SPF (Self-Preservation Focus) is full of practical tips to have the best summer possible in a way that works for you. Even if our body is on a sun lounger on a faraway gorgeous deserted island, our head might still be worrying about the inbox. This second episode is a reminder that it is ok to focus on our own needs and self-care. In fact, it makes us more able to to look after others when we are feeling well ourselves.

3 practical tips include the Six Box Exercise, 21 Packets of Time concept and our very own 'Desire, Capacity, Option' 3-step conversation tool: a guilt-free way to say no to someone else so you can say yes to yourself.

Our call to action this week is simple but often not easy: list your feelgood activities - do more of these; list your feelbad activities - do less of these.

We dedicate this episode to all the Carers out there x
