How To Create the Perfect Me Time
Stuck at home with nothing but time. We’re somehow forced to slow down and take stock of a lot of things that we took for granted. Mainly ourselves. I can see you nodding your head in agreement.
Let’s explore some tips to create some “me time”.
You need the time to care for your greatest commodity- You
- Get some essential oils and give yourself a gentle massage of your feet, hands, neck or legs.
- Style your hair. A new look creates a new mood.
- Give yourself a face scrub. Use inexpensive products you can purchase or DIY with your own ingredients. I have another blog about a great homemade face scrub I make every week for my face. Look out for that.
- Detox from social media for a day.
- Take a bubble bath.
- Read a book / magazine
- Meditate
- Download a yoga app and follow its routine. It’s so relaxing.
- Cuddle in front of the tv with your favorite throw or blanket and watch your favorite comedy /action/ whatever genre you’re into.
- Do a puzzle
- Learn a new recipe
- Listen to your favorite podcast
- Screenshot posts from online that inspire you (I love this one).
- Write a poem
- Choose a few of your favorite outfits and give yourself a photo shoot, do a “photo dump” on IG caption #theinnermodel (I just love any reason to dress up).
- Bake something (my sister is still trying this project with me – I need the patience. I can’t commit to measuring ingredients. A “pinch” has always been proven accurate!).
- Dance to your favorite songs on a playlist.
- Light your favorite candle.
- Take a nap (Especially if your workweek was hectic, nap and recharge).
- Paint
- Watch the sunset/sunrise. Appreciate being alive.
Whatever you fancy. These tips are just a few of what my ME TIME looks like.
Comment and let me know what your perfect ME TIME consists of.
XOXO
If you are losing your leisure, look out! It may be that you are losing your soul
