June 24 marks the start of Self-Care Month, which ends with Self-Care Day on July 24, 2024. This symbolic day was chosen because self-care can be practiced “24 hours a day, 7 days a week.”

Self-Care Month is an opportunity to:

?? Raise additional awareness about self-care and self-care interventions

?? Celebrate the benefits that they bring to people’s lives and what’s been achieved so far

?? Call for renewed commitments and action to expand health systems to include self-care interventions
