Bring Some R&R Into Your Home
Introduce calming scents
A calming scent, like lavender, valerian, camomile, and bergamot, can do wonders for easing stress or anxiety. Find candles that incorporate these scents or purchase essential oils and diffusers.
Drown out the noise
Having trouble sleeping due to distracting outside noises? A sound machine might be the solution. Most of them offer several sounds to choose from including natural noises, fan sound effects, and white noise.
Wake up more naturally
Studies have shown that waking up to natural light can allow you to start your day with more energy and in a better mood. However, if you can’t wake to real sunlight, a wake-up light can also get the job done. In addition to simulating the sunrise and sunset, many incorporate natural wake-up sounds, FM radio, and snooze options.
Get an at-home massage
Nothing feels better than a great massage. Bring that feeling home with a shoulder massager. Most massagers offer different modes and speeds for you to choose from depending on the area you are massaging or personal preference.
Bottom Line
Whether you try one or more of these tips or find something else that works best for you, self care and relaxation is always a great investment!
