About this listen
Are you too busy to breathe, let alone meditate?
Overwhelmed by the idea of self-care routines that require hours, expensive candles, or pretending to like kale smoothies?
Self-Care(ish) Sanity Hacks is here to help. This hilarious and practical guide skips the fluff and gets straight to self-care hacks that actually fit into a busy life—because you deserve to feel human, even if your schedule disagrees.
Packed with stress relief tips, time-saving tricks, and plenty of humor, Self-Care(ish) Self-Care(ish) Sanity Hacks is perfect for anyone who feels like they’re constantly juggling work, family and the occasional shower. Whether you’ve got five minutes or just five seconds, this book will show you how to:
- Sneak mindfulness into chaotic mornings (hint: it involves coffee).
- Turn “me time” into a reality—even if it’s just hiding in the bathroom.
- Use daily chores as moments of calm (yes, folding laundry can be meditative).
- Recharge with laughably simple routines that won’t add more stress.
- Embrace imperfect self-care because, honestly, who has time for perfection?
Through relatable humor, bite-sized advice, and plenty of you’re-not-alone moments, Self-Care(ish) Sanity Hacks shows you how to create small wins that add up to big changes. You’ll laugh, you’ll sigh with relief, and you’ll finally feel like self-care isn’t just for people with endless free time and immaculate living rooms.
So, if you’ve ever tried meditation but got interrupted by a crying child, a barking dog, or your wandering thoughts, this book is for you.

Sanity in Chaos
This book is a hilarious and honest look at the messy reality of self-care. It's relatable AF and offers practical tips that actually fit into my chaotic life. No judgment, just realistic advice and a good dose of humor. I've already started implementing some of the "hacks" and I'm feeling a little less overwhelmed. If you're a busy parent, a working professional, or just someone who feels like they're constantly spinning their wheels, this book is for you.

Very Helpful and Fun!
Listening to this audiobook felt like chatting with a hilarious, understanding friend who just gets how overwhelming life can be. The practical tips on sneaking mindfulness into chaotic mornings, like turning coffee time into a mini escape, were a lifesaver for me. The narrator’s warm tone and humor made even the simplest advice feel comforting and relatable. I laughed out loud more than once, especially at the idea of hiding in the bathroom for “me time” (been there!). If your schedule leaves you gasping for air, this audiobook is perfect for making self-care feel doable and fun.

Self-Care That Actually Fits Life
Between work, kids, and everything else, “me time” felt impossible. This book made self-care feel realistic, not some Pinterest-perfect fantasy. The small, sanity-saving tips helped me squeeze in moments to recharge without adding stress. I’ve even stopped feeling guilty for taking a break! It’s like having a friend who gets how chaotic life can be and offers advice that actually works. If you’re over the “just meditate” advice, this book will be your new favorite.

Self-Care
I laughed out loud while listening to this because it felt like the author was describing my life; chaotic, messy, and nonstop. The tips are refreshingly realistic, like sneaking in mindfulness while drinking coffee or finding peace in everyday chores (seriously, who knew folding laundry could help?). It’s not about perfection, and that’s what I love. The humor made it relatable and fun.
