With an eye on mindfulness, Vancouver's Werklab helps self-employed prioritize self-care

“We believe that the work day is no longer 9 to 5, especially with technology and as people become business owners or are working as part of startups,” notes Disler during a tour of Werklab, the East Van coworking space she founded. “Self-care is a necessity but we still see it as a luxury, so it’s the first thing we let go of or drop when we see our workloads expand.”
