The best self care ideas for Valentine’s Day

in Lifestyle on 02/08/23

I put together a list of self care ideas you can do this Valentine’s day. I’m trying to focus more on self care and self love. Whether you are single or in a relationship I think it’s so important to love yourself and treat yourself.

Self Care Ideas and why its important

Self care is important because it helps to promote physical, mental and emotional well-being. By taking time to prioritize self care, individuals can reduce stress, improve their mood and boost their overall health. This can lead to better relationships, increased productivity and a higher quality of life. Self care can take many forms, such as getting enough sleep, eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and engaging in activities that bring joy and relaxation.

I wanted to share some ideas of what I do sometimes to get some self care in. I’d love to hear what you like to do as well for self care.

Facial Spa Night

When its hard to go somewhere for a spa treatment you can easily do it at home and make it just as fun. I have the face steamer and have loved using it. It’s actually so relaxing to feel the hot steam on your face. It can be so fun to just do the steamer and put on a face mask.

1. PMD Clean // 2. PMD Microderm // 3. Face Steamer // 4. Eye Mask // 5. Face Mask

Bubble Bath

Nothing can beat a good bubble bath at home. I love the Dr Teal’s epsom salt and the Lavender bath soap can be so relaxing.

1. Bath Tray // 2. Bath Soap // Bath Bomb // Bath salt // Dr Teal’s Bath Salt

Massage

1. Eye Massage Mask // 2. Massage Gun // 3. Finger Head Scratcher

Star a new Book

Start a new book for self care ideas. These were my top favorite books I read last year. A Court of Thorne and Roses is probably up there with my top favorite series of all time. I couldn’t put that book down. Links to books below picture.

American Royals // A Court of Thorns and Roses

Self Care Journal

I love journals and I’ve always found that writing in a journal is form of self care. Starting a self care journal can be a great to add to your self care ideas. You can find links to these journals below the picture.

1. Blue Self Care Journal // 2. Wellness Journal // 3 Self Care

Give yourself a gift

Another thing to do for self care ideas is to give yourself a gift. Treat yourself! I have a gift guide for her blog post listing some really fun ideas on what to gift yourself. Check it out!

The best gift ideas for her

Buy yourself a new outfit

Another self care idea is to buy yourself a new outfit! Anytime I want to buy myself a new outfit I go to my favorite clothing boutique Shop Henly. They have the cutest dresses and comfy sets. Where do you love to shop for a new outfit?

Start a new show

Most of my self care during the year is watching a show at night and just escaping. Start a new show just for you to watch alone. If you have followed me for awhile now you know I love Korean Dramas. I wrote a blog post listing my top 10 all time favorite shows. Trust me once you watch one you will never go back to American shows. Korean dramas are the best!

Hi I’m Jenn, but my friends call me Coco. I recently lost the love of my life to cancer. I’m now a single mom of IVF miracle twin boys. I hope to help others as I share my journey as a new widow and mother of twins.

Going to be getting all the stuff done this week that I’ve been wanting to do, but I hope I plan in fun/relax time as well!

How I’ve been feeling lately 😞 it’s just to How I’ve been feeling lately 😞 it’s just too much! Anyone else feel like this? 

Maybe we aren’t suppose to be doing it all at once but when I let some things go I feel guilty. It makes sense we are meant to have a partner in life. Playing both roles is weighing on me. Hard to be mom and dad, managing the home, be the only income. At the end of the day if something needs to get done it’s on me. No one to lean on or go through it with. 😢 #singleparents #youngwidow #widow #parenting #lifequotes #quotes
