Calm Body Care
With the long, light-filled days of summer often feeling nonstop, I’ve been gently reminding myself to slow down and carve out little pockets of calm. Last night, I did just that with a soothing soak in the bath. While the water ran, I took a few mindful minutes to exfoliate—buffing in gentle, upward circles to boost circulation and refresh sun-kissed skin. Then I dropped a few bath bombs into the tub and let the soft fizz and summer scents melt the day away. Pure peace.

With all the hustle and bustle at this time of year, I have to remind myself to take some time out to recharge. So last night, I had a relaxing soak in the bath.

Then I popped in a few bath bombs in the tub and spent the next while letting the peace and tranquillity wash over me.
