Winter melancholy is a thing. It’s those short days with gray skies when the sun only sometimes peeks through and warmth still seems months away. It can be hard to find motivation for our regular duties, let alone hobbies.
We need a way to perk ourselves up and power through until the first colors of spring. Here are Scentsy’s best tips combining fragrance and self-care for a one-two punch to shoo away winter doldrums!
Self-care is critical to our overall health. Experts say consciously doing small things that help yourself flourish improves physical and mental health, reduces stress, lowers risk of illness and increases energy! Now, couple that with fragrance, and well, that’s where the magic happens. Fragrance hits our brains right in the emotions, helping to improve mood, soothe fried nerves and invigorate dreary afternoons.
Smooth away the blues
Using lotion first thing in the morning sets a self-care benchmark for the rest of the day. Scentsy Hand Cream is a great fit for a daily ritual. A few moments to slather some all-over moisturizer on scaly winter elbows or feet is an easy way to spend some you time. And, it’s critical to keep skin hydrated in winter. Fresh scents are known brain boosters, aiding in concentration to help you maintain focus. Aquatic notes are rejuvenating. These uplifting fragrance components come together in our Starburst Sky fragrance.
Sublime suds
When we give our bodies some attention, we feel better physically, and that leads to feeling good mentally, too. A quick pick-me-up is a hit of delicious fragrance throughout the day. Since scrubbing the mitts is required multiple times, make it a moment to relax with a whiff of fragrance known to create feelings of happiness. Scentsy Hand Soap in our Starburst Sky fragrance will help melt away worries.
Shower vacay
Let fragrance be your ally in conquering the winter blues by taking a mini vacation in your shower! Scentsy Body Wash is offered in a variety of fragrances, carefully designed to brighten your mood and uplift your heart. Close your eyes and imagine you’re in an exotic waterfall inhaling the wonderful notes of zesty lemon, mint and soothing eucalyptus. That’s a five-minute holiday with our Starburst Sky fragrance.
Scent and a few self-focused moments (it’s not selfish, it’s self-care) can become part of your daily mood-enhancing ritual. Your journey to a happier, more fragrant winter wind-down starts now.
