5 Self Care Tips to Help You Relax

“My Sunday night usually starts with a soak in the bath with my favourite warming body wash (Orange & Bergamot FYI). I'm not very good at relaxing, I'm the type who feels more zen when I'm getting things done. So, while my hair and face mask do their thing, I crack on with my to-do list which I affectionately call my ‘bath-min’. Once I’ve got everything done, I can relax and curl up on the sofa with a coffee table book. A while ago, I started to give myself a pay-day treat every month with a new one.”

“My favourite way to bookend the week is a long run. This is great for clearing my head because all I focus on for an hour is running (and avoiding any tourists). My go-to route is from the Anchor Bankside pub in Borough then along the Thames towards Battersea Park. Rain or shine, as long as I have my playlist, I’m running! Top tip for newbies: use the Coastal Cypress & Sea Fennel Bath Salts to help melt away post-run pains.”

"My ultimate self-care day has to start with going for a nice long walk with my pooch or I've become quite the fan of a power plate class. Once I've got out of the house for a bit, I am a proper Sunday reset kind of girl which means cleaning, cleaning, cleaning! Once I've completely worn myself out, I end the day with a hot bubble bath. My body care ritual always includes lighting my Mesmerising Oudh Accord & Gold Luxury Candle, reading a good book and then finishing with my #1 Body Lotion.”

“Pilates is such a great way to get fitter but also clear your mind after a busy week. Also, you’re forced to go if you’re friends are going too! Although, it’s all about balance (excuse the pun), so I like to follow the class with a delicious pizza from Vasiniko in Covent Garden!”
