The holiday rush is rushing in, and Christmas 2021 is starting to feel like what Christmas was like two years ago! Cars are causing heavy traffic, people are back in shopping malls, and invitations to get togethers are becoming more frequent. That means stress levels are slowly rising, if not high already.
Between all of this, plus the added stress that kids are still studying from home, plus the added stress that you’re probably still working from home, plus the added stress of still potentially being able to contract COVID-19 as you go through these holiday motions, we moms need a self-care arsenal to bring us back to feeling centered and calm whenever we feel that stress or anxiety!
Here’s what you’ll find in our tool kit:
1. Scenti Aroma Diffuser Water Soluble Oil
This water soluble oil comes in two relaxing scents: Linger and Garden of Eden. It works with any diffuser, which means you don’t have to invest in anything new, and though mild, the scent is soothingly detectable, able to fill a room with a relaxing and calming fragrance that is wonderful for the senses. Perfect way to relax after planning and shopping (whether IRL or online!)
In case you don’t have one, the Crane 2 Humidifier & Diffuser is perfect for this!
At the end of a long day, whether at home or coming from errands, treat yourself to some quiet time and soak your feet in this combination of epsom salt and Himalayan salt in either a lavender or orange peppermint scent. Coupled with a good scrub, and you just gave yourself a great pampering!
3. Nighty Night Adult Essential Roller for Adults
Specially blended by Wellness Mom PH, this roller contains light soothing scents like lavender and Chamomile to help bring you towards a deep and more restful sleep. The oil blend also supports clear respiration, allowing the body to truly rejuvenate each night. A quick touch to your temples and chest should do the trick!
4. Tiny Buds Sleep Time Stick Ons
This one is for all the new mamas and still-nursing-at-night mamas! It would help immensely during this time if our babies slept better and longer, and TIny Buds can help us do that with these relaxing lavender and eucalyptus stick ons! Simply put on on your baby’s clothes, swaddle, or pillow, and watch them fall asleep faster, better, and longer. (As professed by online testimonials.)
As a final treat, light one or two scented candles to complete your home or room’s relaxing atmosphere. Choose one of five beautiful scents by mompreneur, Mia Lauchengco. These beautiful soy candles are gift-worthy too!
Through all the holiday rush, always remember to have moments of peace for yourself. Put together a tool kit that works, and enjoy it whenever you need!
