Superself is an online and offline well-being project from [Selfridges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfridges-1) and it's focused on providing self-discovery and self-care opportunities for shoppers. In partnership with Stack World, therapy and coaching experiences are offered so that shoppers can book breathwork sessions or sex therapy, online or in-store.

At physical stores, consumers have the benefit of being able to step into A Safe Trip [sensory pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/theatre-of-digital-art) from Sensiks to awaken multiple senses and optimize mental well-being.

As part of the project, there's also a focus on vitamins, treatments, in-store hair salon and The [Light Salon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-light-salon), which specializes in skin conditions and insomnia. Furthermore, there's a run cub, live music and empowering messages that can be accessed via QR codes.
