Self-Care in Lockdown
Brisbane has just exited another round of lockdown. However, many of our southern neighbour States are still suffering in varying degrees of isolation. Unfortunately, self-care is often the first thing that we put to one side when life is complicated, as we often think that taking time for ourselves seems selfish. But looking after yourself is essential, and will help you get through difficult periods of time, and enables us to better care for others.
Self-care is the list of activities and practices that you deliberately choose to do regularly to help maintain and enhance your physical and mental health and wellbeing. It's an essential tool in your arsenal to prevent stress and anxiety. By incorporating self-care activities into your routine, you give your mind and body much needed time to recuperate, start again, and renew, so you can mitigate that insidious symptoms of stress and anxiety and eke into our day without conscious though.
When you stop and take the much needed time for yourself, allowing your body the moment-in-time that it needs, you will find yourself with more energy to meet the essential aspects of your life – be it family, study, work, or anything else. By finding balance in your altered routine that lockdown has thrust upon you, you will notice you are more productive and better able to cope with stress.
Many of our products will give you the rest, relaxation, and rest that you so rightfully need. Our gorgeous line of bath salts and bath bombs will give you the sensory and physical time-off from the stressors and anxieties that the real-world has pushed upon you. Our Muscle Soak range is especially relaxing, with a calming essential oil blend of eucalyptus, peppermint and menthol combined with a hint of lavender it will transport your mind and body our of lockdown and into a high-end spa. Our range of Sweet Rose bath bombs will light up your bath in a pink frenzy, and leave a soft, lingering fragrance on your skin that brings serenity and calm for hours after your bath. You can even pair our amazing products with a complementary candle from our friends at Runaway Scents.
Whatever your choice of daily relaxation, make sure you incorporate some essential you time in your self-care routine. There is no sense running on empty batteries, so time to yourself is a wise investment that will better enable you to help those you love.
