BIRTHDAY SELFCARE

SPLURGE OR JUST SIMPLY SLEEP IN!

My birthday is just around the corner, March 20th to be exact. I am looking forward to celebrating. Selfcare is something I do for myself throughout the year, but I keep it at a minimum.

Meaning; I would set a monthly budget and stick to it. I treat myself to small gifts like; at home facials, supermarket flowers, pedicures and manicures, movie dates, or something as small as buying books and magazines.

For my birthday I go all out and treat myself to one luxury guilt free item, because I sacrificed throughout the year. My favorite to splurge on are handbags and purse. My favorite luxury designer bag is the Baugette by http://www.fendi.com

Treating myself to a luxury gift on my birthday is a delightful way to celebrate and honor my journey around the sun. I want to share some thoughtful and enjoyable ways to indulge in self-care and make your birthday extra special:

  1. Affordable Luxuries:
  2. At-Home Spa Day:
  3. Something New:
    • Break out of your routine and treat yourself:
      • Buy a lovely bouquet of flowers.
      • Savor a cup of coffee or tea at your favorite coffee shop.
      • Consider signing up for a gym membership or an online course.
      • Schedule an appointment for a fresh haircut, color, or style.
      • Get some new makeupnail polish, or perfume.
      • Light up your space with a new aromatherapy candle or essential oils.
  4. Mindfulness and Reflection:
    • Take time to appreciate the past year and set intentions for the year ahead:
      • Practice yoga or meditation.
      • Go for a quiet walk.
      • Create a vision board.
