Are you looking for some ways to practice self love? We all need to practice a little more self-love, but some days it's hard! Slip in a little "me time" throughout your day using these easy ways to practice self love.
1 Eat an Orange in the Shower
If you haven’t tried this in your daily routine, do it now! Get in the shower with an orange and peel it while you’re in the shower. The steam will naturally bring out the citrus oils from the peel. So you get a little aromatherapy and a sweet treat! This is one of my favorite ways to practice self love.
Frequently asked questions
2 Put the Phone down for a Day
We all do it when we get bored, we pick our phones up every 2 seconds, even when we know there’s nothing new to check! Put that phone down, babe. Switch your phone to airplane mode and put it in the other room for a day, or even an afternoon. Go outside, read a book or literally do nothing! Rest your brain and your eyes.
3 Eat Chocolate
Craving chocolate? Go get some! When you crave certain foods, your body is telling you what it needs. So you might crave chocolate if you need some sugar or caffeine in your system. Eat some chocolate and don’t you dare feel bad about it!
4 Take a Bath…in the Morning!
Taking a bath is one of the most relaxing things in the world, but we always take them at night to relax. Why not start your day relaxed? Use frankincense, citrus or eucalyptus to relieve stress and give you an energy boost in the morning.
5 Do Yoga
Yoga is a miracle worker for a reason! Even if you are a beginner, or not up for a lot of movement there’s a yoga video for you. Stay in your pajamas and find a yoga class on YouTube. Yoga with Adriene is a great channel. Check out her gentle morning and bedtime yoga videos.
6 Take Some Time for a Face Mask
Face masks are one of the ultimate self-care activities. They force you to take a moment for your self and get a little aromatherapy in while you’re at it.
7 Get to Bed
Take a night to go to bed early, take a bath, have some tea, then snuggle into bed. You’ll feel super refreshed and ready to go the next day!
