If there’s one thing we can probably all agree on this International Women’s Day it’s that, as women, we need to make more time for self-care, self-love and self-compassion. Because let’s be real, it’s a tough time to be a woman in the world right now. But can you remember the last time you carved some real time out to put yourself first? Nope, we can’t either.
That’s why we have decided to team up with broadcaster and long-time mental health advocate, Fearne Cotton, to bring you a social series on all things wellbeing and joy. The three-part series, shared on Instagram Reels, will see Fearne speak to industry-leading experts in sleep science, meditation and colour therapy to help you sleep better, relax your mind, and inject some mood-boosting décor into your wardrobe and home.
To help bring the series to life, we have partnered with the team at Samsung, who has just launched the new Galaxy S23 Series – made up of three new products: the Galaxy S23 Ultra, S23+ and S23 – the most powerful and long-lasting generation of Galaxy S Series smartphones yet. Image quality is better than ever thanks to the incredible 200MP Ultra High-Resolution Rear Camera (S23 Ultra only), and 50MP on the Galaxy S23 and S23+, far-reaching zoom, ’Nightography’ technology for capturing high-quality images even in low light, and enhanced noise control for capturing video content.
So, if you’re ready to feel your best self, here’s everything you need to know about GLAMOUR x Fearne Cotton’s Self-Care Series, in partnership with Samsung…
SESSION 1: SLEEP SCIENCE - 7th March
We all know how vital sleep is for our health – our immunity, metabolism, memory and mental health all rely on our bodies and minds getting a good night’s kip. Despite this, we’re a nation of terrible sleepers, with 71% of UK adults not getting the recommended seven to nine hours of sleep a night.
For this series, Fearne will chat with Dr Sophie Bostock, AKA The Sleep Scientist, for her expert tips and tricks to help you sleep better. From setting up your WFH station in front of a window to using the journaling technique on the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra to help set your intentions for the next day, these small changes in your daily routine can have a huge effect on your quality of sleep.

SESSION 2: MEDITATION – 29th March
If you’re feeling more than a little stressed and burnt out right now, you’re not alone; thanks to the news cycle, job insecurity, the cost of living crisis, we’re collectively dealing with a lot at the moment. So, for our second session, Fearne is teaming up with the spiritual guide and meditation teacher Giselle La Pompe-Moore to talk about all things meditation and its healing powers.
Meditation empowers you to take control of your emotions, reactions and behaviours and helps you achieve mental clarity and emotional calmness. It can help manage your stress levels, increase self-awareness, and reduce negative emotions. Sounds like something we could all do with a bit more of, right? Tune in on 29th March to see Giselle give her top meditation tips and guide Fearne in her meditation practice.
SESSION 3: COLOUR THERAPY - 19th April
A burst of colour is a sure-fire way to beat the doom and gloom, but colour therapists go one step further; looking at ways in which certain colours correspond to aspects of your life, and how different colours in the spectrum can harmonise or rebalance your body’s inner vibrations.
For our third and final session, going live on Instagram on 19th April, Fearne will meet with colour therapist Sisi Alfred. Sisi uses colour as an expression of herself (just see her home and wardrobe) and is keen to show others how incorporating colour therapy into your life can transform the way you feel.
Fearne and Sisi will talk you through choosing outfits and certain colours to reflect your mood, as well as adding clever, colourful touches to your living space to make it feel more vivid and joy-inducing, capturing the colours in all their beautiful vibrancy on the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra’s mega high-resolution camera.
We’ll see you there!
