My key career role and part of the creative process I love is producing beautiful, natural aromatherapy spa products and de-stressing, recharging, holistic spa rituals to be enjoyed and indulged at Spas globally.... The last 11 months has given us so many reasons to be stressed, fearful and anxious. During times of acute stress and uncertainty our bodies/mind/spirit craves routine, structure, stability and nourishment. Somethings we have all missed during the long lockdowns ticks all the boxes above. Its those spa trips, beauty salon sessions, hairdressers chair “down time” all those little luxuries we afforded ourselves as part of our regular wellness self-care routines that gave us our stability, wellbeing and nurturing. One big positive out of the pandemic is that it gifted/forced us with the opportunity to take a break, take a breather, slow down, this time has ignited a new found passion for home care routines/rituals and to really see the benefits of self-nurture. There are so many reasons why Self-care is a Necessity and Not a Luxury and why there has never been a better time to make self-care part of your physical/wellbeing, lifestyle practices...
Remember after the first long lockdown and your first visit to the spa or salon for a facial, massage or trip to the hairdressers? A real lesson in “attitude of gratitude” and total appreciation for those routine parts of life that we might have taken for granted.
Making you time for self-care through amazing rituals like facials, massage, reiki, reflexology, hair & scalp treatments, exercise and meditation has a powerful positive impact on our mind/body/spirit health & wellbeing. I know once we are safely out the other side of Covid we will flock back to our spas, beauty therapists, hairdressers, holistic practitioners and gyms again. They will be our “go-to” to bring us back to balance. Until we are out of lockdowns lets practice time out every day to dedicate to our self-care rituals at home.
Now those who know me understand that my feel-good, self-care, home rituals could be: lavishing my hair & face with my Revitalising Butter with Hemp, enjoying a glass of bubbles (alcoholic or none) in a Rapture bath; a Restorative Face Mask and an episode of The Discovery of Witches; a full moon meditation; journaling; or a zoom exercise class with one of my very talented fitness goddess friends (Have to say my flat is tiny, which turns any zoom exercise routine into an acrobatic feat! Performing - Seasonal Pilates with Sandy or Barre with Tracy in my tiny space calls for some creative moves to navigate the furniture)
