It’s easy to forget to treat ourselves well. But it’s absolutely essential for our own mental health. Something as simple as taking a long bath or making time to do something just for fun can really break up the daily routine and alleviate stress we often don’t even realize is there. Here are five ways to treat yourself this month.
5 Ways to Pamper Yourself This Month
- Indulge in a Long Bath – Light a candle, bring a book, and break out the nicest soap you can find. Take a few minutes at the end of the day for a soak and disconnect for a while.
- Use Your Good China Every Day – Don’t keep saving up your good stuff only for when company comes over. You deserve to use the nice cups and saucers, even if it’s only for a few minutes in the morning with your coffee or tea.
- Do One Thing You Enjoy – Set aside one hour each week to do something you enjoy, just for the fun of it. Go for a hike, take a class, go shopping, meditate – whatever it is, give yourself that one hour just because you deserve it.
- Plan a Weekend Getaway – Take advantage of the longer days of summer and choose a destination you can get away to for the weekend, like a bed & breakfast or a beach escape.
- Stay In – Book a hotel room in your own city, order room service, wear a robe and slippers, and let someone else take care of you for a change.
