The summer months are always hectic; holidays, family outings, and social occasions, we can often find ourselves in a constant state of busyness. If you err on the side of introvert it can often feel draining, so make sure you prioritise your mental wellbeing, finding balance and calm in everyday life.
GAIA Skincare believes that the health of your mind and body are equally important, one without the other can leave you with a feeling of disparity. So, when it’s all feeling a little busy, make sure you take time to find grounding and equilibrium.
A great way to start is by practising small mindful moments in everyday life, which encourage you to slow down and focus on yourself. At the end of a long day, why not light a candle? GAIA’s Calming Candle will give your home a warming glow, combined with the rest-inducing aromatherapy blend of French Lavender which will help you to relax and find peace.
Or make time every weekend for a relaxing soak in the bath, giving you space to disconnect from technology and soothe your mind and body. Add a few drops of GAIA’s Calming Bath Oil to your bath water, with a blend of pure lavender, chamomile and orange blossom essential oils, which will help you find inner peace, complemented with a blend of organic jojoba oil, rich in vitamin E, to leave your skin feeling hydrated and soft.
Sleep is another key factor in supporting your wellbeing; regular sleep patterns help to reduce stress and improve your mood. Creating a calming routine before you go to bed, such as a simple skincare routine with a gentle face massage, turning your phone on to ‘do not disturb’ and spritzing your pillow with a sleep spray will help prepare you for a restful night. We love GAIA’s calming blend of French lavender and vertivert in their Sleep Spray; it creates the perfect environment for you to drift off.
