We all need time to ourselves. We need to give back to ourselves to feel rejuvenated and ready to take on whatever’s ahead. We need more self-care in our lives! With the holiday season right around the corner, it’s a good time to talk about self-care—and ways to get more of it. The holidays can get extra busy and stressful. There can be times when it feels like there isn’t much time for “you.”
No matter the time of year, though, it’s essential to take time to take care of yourself—your mental, emotional, and physical well-being. If your day, week, month, or even year is a bit crazy, here are a few ways to sneak some self-care into your day. Who knows? Maybe all it takes is slipping into a tub with some delectable, natural bath bombs. A little can go a long way.
Weave Self-Care into Your Existing Daily Routines
When time is limited, a convenient way to add a bit of self-care to your day is to weave it into existing daily routines. Take a morning shower before heading to work? Add a body scrub and body butter to the mix. Well, not just any body scrub or butter. Go with something aromatic. Adding aromatics to your day—anywhere in your day—can be rejuvenating.
Try a vanilla coconut body scrub and body butter. Or peach. Or pumpkin spice if you’re feeling it. It’s all about finding products with scents you love. Give yourself an exfoliating scrub once or twice a week and follow it with body butter to keep the aromatherapy going. It takes roughly five minutes, yet it can profoundly affect your well-being.
Slow Down the Lunch Rush
Some days, you get to lunch when you expect. On other days, it may seem like the lunch hour will just have to wait. No matter when lunch finally does arrive, there are a few ways to weave some self-care into the 30 minutes or hour you have available. Maybe it’s adding a book to your lunch routine (an audiobook counts). Or a podcast.
What you eat for lunch can also serve as an act of self-care. Some days, it may mean eating a healthy, wholesome meal full of greens. Or it may mean indulging in something special and out of the ordinary. Should you grab an ice cream cone during lunch? If you’re feeling it, you’re feeling it. It’s a small way to give back to yourself that (potentially) takes little or no extra time yet can positively impact your well-being.
Set Time Aside for a Spa Evening
This tip also follows along the line of weaving self-care into your existing routine. The difference is that it focuses on giving yourself a little more time to focus on, well, yourself. As easy as it is to say, “set time aside for a spa day,” that isn’t always practical. If you can get away with it, go for it. For now, though, try a spa evening.
You may need to do a little finagling to work it into your schedule, but it’s mostly about giving yourself 30 minutes to an hour. It can be as simple as filling the tub with hot water, dropping in a few natural bath bombs, lighting a few candles, and putting on some tunes over your Bluetooth speaker. Get some bath bombs with aromas you love (again, aromatherapy is a great way to incorporate self-care into your day) and let them take over.
