‘Self care’ is definitely a 2016 buzz word.
Endless blog posts, podcasts and articles have been published on the importance of it.
But after I wrote a post about taking time out to invest in myself, the questions and comments I got showed me that actually, most people my age don’t know how to practice self care at all, and find the whole concept alien and dated.
Here are some ways you can spend some time on you this week, without the lavender oil and meditation.
There aren’t that many spa-related activities that I haven’t partaken in, but up until last week having a massage was one of them. Luckily a new LUSH store opened on Oxford Street to take care of all my back rubbing needs.
My first ever massage took place deep in the underbelly of the new LUSH store which boasts three floors of natural, sweet smelling goodness.
I had no idea what to expect and while I waited for my masseuse to prepare the room, I was treated to a hand massage with a strawberry soap bar on the shop floor, which was more relaxing that it sounds.
