Time Commitment: 2 min (after shower is best)
My favorite selfcare treat at this moment is a combination of LUSH products: Each Peach scented lotion/massage bar with Coconut scented deodorant powder on top.
Procedure: After you get out of the shower and have toweled off, take out the massage bar and rub it all over your body. Put the bar down and rub the lotion into your skin. Then, shake some deodorant powder onto your hand and rub it everywhere the lotion is. The result leaves a clean, matte finish, and YOU smelling (and feeling) great!
Why this is wonderful: It attends to two senses: touch and smell. The action of rubbing all of this onto your skin really helps to reconnect your mind with your body. I don't know about you, but I get lost in my mind and thoughts while I am in the shower. I organize my day, plan my meals, make mental notes of things to remember... This ritual pulls my awareness back into my body so I can start my day in a more connected state. When one is more connected, they are less vulnerable to stress :) Yay!
